Winter is (hopefully) drawing to an end here in Texas and I am trying to make the best of this wintery coldness with this soul-warming pear and poppy seed cake: Three pear upside down cakes that are packed with almonds and stacked with poppy seed buttercream. Buttercream that is so loaded with poppy seeds its almost black! That’s my kind of cake, cause poppy seeds are my secret obsession. There is a German classic, Poppy Seed Crumble Cake (which was actually one of my first and most popular posts), I tell you – to die for. If you love poppy seeds. Or even if you don’t. But if you do, you will love this combination: poppy seeds and pears! A dream team that makes the cold winter weather just a little bit more bearable… a little bit.
