The title of this cake makes it sound ridiculously hard. It wasn't though; don't let this intimidate you. My cake didn't turn out as beautiful as the picture :( probably because I didn't have a bundt pan. SO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ONE! The very center of my cake wasn't baked that well; if it was a bundt pan it would have come out perfect. I really thought I would taste some cream cheese in the cake; but I barely did, which dissapointed me because I'm a cream cheese fan. After tasting the mixture, it was so sweet. Too sweet, if I may add. To lessen the sweetness and make it a bit more sour, I added some of the juice from the blueberry can and mixed it. Before adding the icing, I thought the cake would be kind of boring if it was all by itself + icing. So finally I decided to cut the cake RIGHT in the middle and add my own cream in there. I mixed sour cream with sugar (an old Russian tradition) and placed in the center. I put both sides together and it looked like a huge blueberry cookie! After, I added the icing; it turned out purple. The purple kind of intimidated people; purple icing on a cookie-like cake? Very strange. At the gathering, people were hesitant to try it, but everyone loved it! It was very sweet and moist, like someone said before. To conclude this review, if you're looking for a little more in this cake, I suggest the Russian creme (sour cream + sugar). This will definetly spice things up ! Hope this long review was worth it.
