Fillings

Fillings can elevate a rather boring cake into a multi-layered masterpiece. They make doughnuts worth biting into.  They are the hidden, mysterious center of many a baked good.  This is by no means an exhaustive list of fillings. 

Heck, you could take a jar of fruit spread and use that as a filling if you want (and sometimes I do).  Mix that jar of fruit spread with some whipped cream and stabilize the whole thing with gelatin, and you've got an easy mousse filling.  Don't limit yourself; spread your creative pastry wings:-)
