(I wonder if "filling" is a British way of saying "frosting", otherwise
if he's deduced a butter/marg less frosting, why not use that for the
filling...)  However, moving right along, for a "generic cake", how
about a jam filling?  For a cake like applesauce cake, how about a cream
cheese filling.  How about a whipped cream filling and frosting?  How
about a hundred, million, quintillion calories......
