Your frosting came out the right texture; mine looked like mud. I sent my husband to the store with instructions to buy my favorite local root beer, Sprecher. He noticed it had HFCS in it (which I knew, but make an exception for in certain delicious cases, like Sprecher) so he got Virgil's instead, which is fine root beer with good ingredients, but may not have had enough spice for the flavor to shine through. Next time I'll use my favorite mainstream brand, Mug, or get the Sprecher myself. :) LFT, your cake turned out much prettier than mine did.

So far I haven’t tasted anything from Baked that hasn’t turned out delish!

And nothing from Cocoa & Fig is anything but yummy too!

On a related note, I had some almond buttercream salted caramel cake from Cocoa & Fig last night that was fantastic. As the dessert after a dinner of homemade (not by me) poutine. It's astonishing my arteries didn't just shut down overnight. I saved that recipe too and still want to try it, even if it doesn’t taste like root beer.
