I had my first piece Italian Creme Cake bought at a supermarket. When a co-worker had it at work for potluck.I did not like it at first so I never try it again for many years... until a friend of my made the cake  homemade. WOW!!! The fresh taste and the moist of it all just made me fell in love. It's that taste! the creamy buttermilk and walnuts >>> should I go on?
