The cake is great but I really think it might be better with just a very fine powder sugar dusting around the top and not necessarily the entire cake.

Loved this beautiful Bundt Cake. A subtle Lavender flavour. I Iced it with half the icing while warm then drizzled with the rest when cooled. I served this with a dollop of whip cream and fresh sliced strawberries. Will make this again!!!
