Southern Pecan Praline Cake
I made this scrumptious cake for the upcoming Big Bend Hospice 2017 Spring Fling, Under a Magnolia Moon Fundraiser which will be held Thursday evening, May 18, at Tallahassee Nurseries. Spring Fling is a beautiful garden party with over 50 area restaurants on site for guests to sample their delicious dishes.
And you are invited to attend this year so you can also enjoy the fabulous food, stroll through the beautiful gardens of Tallahassee Nurseries, help raise money for a wonderful cause and maybe even have a piece of my Southern Pecan Praline Cake! My husband and I love going to this lovely moonlight evening event full of food, spirits, and fun and we hope to see you there!
