Planning and plotting.

I have other food I've actually made to talk about, but stumbling around the internet I found this page: http://www.epicurious.com/articlesguides/howtocook/dishes/cakerecipes

I do love a good cake. And it just so happens I have a birthday coming around next month and I will likely need a cake for the celebrating. I've picked a few out, want to offer your thoughts?

First up is this Lemon Curd Mousse Cake: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Lemon-Curd-Mousse-Cake-231898
I love light, lemony cakes. This would likely be good with berries on the side, which are one of the highlights of having a Spring birthday.

Next we have this Mascarpone Lavender cake: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Mascarpone-Filled-Cake-with-Sherried-Berries-242873
Delicious cheese and drunken berries? Sounds like a good idea to me.

Something a little different, a Chocolate cake with a vanilla cream filling: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Semisweet-Chocolate-Layer-Cake-with-Vanilla-Cream-Filling-233943
Chocolate is always a good choice and with a nice, light filling it would be really good.

Last one up is another berry cake, with an almond cream cheese frosting: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Mixed-Berry-Chiffon-Cake-with-Almond-Cream-Cheese-Frosting-106656
Again with berries, and what sounds like a really yummy frosting. A frosting my marzipan loving husband would likely approve of.

So, any opinions?
