Spelt and Poppy Seed Birthday Cake

This is an image I grabbed from Flickr. It reflects a few of my interests. First I love poppy seeds -- I see it as my Hungarian heritage coming out (my grandfather on my mother's side was Hungarian). My wedding cake was poppy seed with a chocolate ganache and raspberries.

Lately I have been trying out whole grains and spelt is one I've been trying so a spelt poppy seed cake sounded interesting. Not sure I'd make it and a basil icing, huh, really not sure about that. I've never heard of basil as a compliment to sweet things but maybe I'm missing something. Or maybe not.
