Cake, Cake, Farmer Cake

Lately, we've been pretty tight at greenhouse, so instead of getting some goodies for coffee, we found another pack of cake mix in the closet.
This is not only cheaper, but also much more fun to prepare and decorate together.

I don't think there's a whole lot of difference between a farmer's cake and a regular cake. I've heard that in addition to the basic ingredients, there's corn flour in farm cake, and you use more eggs in regular cakes to make it a little drier and less potent.
No idea if this really is the case, or if it's just in the name.

We also made our own decorating glaze with icing sugar, water and edible dyes.
A few slices have already merged while decorating, but there is still plenty that we have put in a drum for the next few days.
Unfortunately, I only thought about it afterwards, but a few apple pieces could have been added to it as well. An idea for the next time. Who knows, there are still some growing on the tree here this summer.

We forgot to take a picture after decorating and before slicing, but here is a picture of the result when it just came out of the oven.
