Honey Olive Oil Cake with Salted Honey Buttercream
Every year, I make my own birthday cake, and I’m not mad about it. In fact, for every one in my family, I make their birthday cakes as well. Since my birthday is in July, I always love to do a fruit-inspired cake!
Made with raw local honey and olive oil, this cake is incredibly moist with a soft, tender crumb. Finished with salted honey buttercream, local edible flowers, and fresh berries, it’s best served with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream for a simple yet ELLAvated dessert.

There is an organic farm near my house that sells the most beautiful edible flowers, so I had to add them to the cake!
