  2. This cake looks so delicious and the recipe is easy to cook!
    I use that base for cheesecake too, sometimes I don’t even bake it, just mix the crumbs and butter and keep in the fridge to chill for a couple of hours. I’m in love with the colors of the layers.

    1. Yes, I either use crumbs and some melted butter or bake different kind of bases. Once I did it with cereal crumble and some butter, tasted interesting but still good. Clad to hear you like the look of the cake, Perla! 🙂
