My birthday cake request every year is Funfetti cake with Rainbow Chip icing- nature’s perfect food. The desire to have that deliciousness in cookie form led to these beauties.
Last year, I told one of my classmates that I think Funfetti is the best cake flavor, and she said that FUNFETTI IS NOT A FLAVOR!! Apparently, the addition of sprinkles does not change the fact that it is vanilla cake.
But I whole heartedly disagree! Funfetti is so much more than sprinkles- its flavor is birthday cake and it’s made with the essence of joy!
So…I need your opinion. Is Funfetti its own flavor, or just fancy vanilla?
