Cherry+Lime=Yummy

About a month ago I went to an open house for a local Doctor's office. They had this amazing cupcakes there and as soon as I tried the cherry lime one, I knew I needed to recreate it.
So the thinking began..... I wanted to do a white cake with lime and cherry frosting. I started hunting around on the internet for different way to flavor the frosting and also I wanted to make the white cake from scratch. This is where I found the cake recipe http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/tender-white-cake-recipe
For the frosting I did a basic buttercream and doubled it. To one half I added grated lime and the juice of limes, I kinda just taste tested until I got want I wanted. For the other half I added juice from a jar of Marciano Cherries because I couldnt find an cherry extract at Freddies. The cherry taste was good but a lil weak. I, now have a bottle of Cherry extract for the next time. I made 2 9" round putting the cherry buttercream in the middle and lime on the outside. I added some cherry buttercream on the outside for decoration and my creation was complete. It was quite tasty! This was my first cake from scratch and I was quite pleased.
