Slashfood Birthday Cake Contest

Nectarine and Raspberry with Vanilla Custard Birthday Cake
Because I like to take food photos and try things I have not done before, I thought it would be fun to enter this photo contest organized by Slashfood on Flickr where every participant was to enter the picture of a birthday cake.
Slashfood is indeed celebrating its 1st anniversary.
So Happy Birthday to you, Slashfood! Joyeux anniversaire !
Here is my pic on Flickr.
I will post the recipe of this cake later, promise. Not your birthday soon, is it?

Good luck.
I think the colors in the nectarines really bring out the color of the candle flame…well done.

[...] I discovered the recipe for this sweet tart already featured here, in a lovely new cookbook that I acquired a few weeks ago called New Vegetarian Entertaining, by Jane Noraika. This is what happens on a rainy day, when I get stuck in a bookstore. What prompted me to buy the book was actually the food styling and the wonderful pictures that I was sure were both going to inspire me. Call it a weakness, but I can admit that this is exactly how I shop for cookbooks these days. If I want to grab the pieces of food presented in the pictures, I am an easy buyer. [...]
