This one is dedicated to my husband who celebrated his birthday on 31st December.I actually planned to bake a Red Velvet Cake but changed my mind in the last minute.Since last three weeks, I am really busy in office. In spite of having a smart phone, I don't have time to check my mails, Facebook or anything else.Somehow after finishing my household chores today, I thought of posting this recipe.Man..I badly need a break.Waiting desperately for April, to visit my parents.
I have skipped the procedure of baking the vanilla sponge cakes as its already available in my blog.

Method:
1.Beat the butter until smooth and creamy.Add the vanilla.
2.Gradually mix in the icing sugar.Beat the frosting until light and fluffy.Add milk or sugar to get the right consistency. Separate the mixture into two bowls.To one add orange color and to the other add green color.
3.Place one cake layer (bottom side facing up) on the serving plate and spread with about 3/4 cup of orange frosting. Place the other cake layer (bottom side facing up) on top of the frosting and cover the entire cake with the remaining frosting. Place some of the frosting in a piping bag and pipe a decorative border around the top of the cake.
4.With the remaining green frosting I did the basket weave pattern.
