How about almond extract / light coconut oil in vanilla frosting!. Finish off wth almonds and peaches as deco!. The flavors would work well together!. Never tried it but think it might be a winner!. Angelfood perhaps cheesecake as the base!? Perhaps a little shaved chocolate!?
If not you can never go wrong with buttercream and dark chocolate or dark chocolate and rasberry (shaved white chocolate garnish)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
