She, just like me would adjust the sugar to the least amount possible! I might try your idea for labne icing though, as I buy a huge tub of yoghurt every week so always have it on hand. Your cake looks beautiful with the pistachios and petals on it!africanaussiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16660727599623626163noreply@blogger.com
