Strawberry Cream Cake
Imagine a giant strawberry shortcake and that’s this cake. I don’t want to give any spoilers on the taste here but I can’t help it – this cake is soooo good! This cake portion of this recipe isn’t too difficult but I continue to have issues when I have to fold whipped egg whites into […]

Strawberry Limeade Bundt Cake
I thought this recipe would be fun to kick-off my summer fruit fest. Over the next two months I’ll be posting various fruit recipes to celebrate summer. A co-worker recently brought in a key lime cake that tasted more lemony than limey (is that a real word??) so I decided maybe I’d try something to […]

Original Cake Pan Cake
I love cake and a layer cake is probably one of my favorite classic desserts. While cake is great, sometimes you don’t want all of that cake lying around right? Or maybe you just need a quick and delicious cake this weekend for Mother’s Day! While many companies make cake mixes proportioned for an 8 […]

Dairy Free Chocolate Cake
My colleague recommended this dairy free chocolate cake so I decided to give it a try. The actual cake recipe is super easy and honestly one of the best chocolate cake recipes I’ve made in a long time. I also love that it’s enough for 3 layers which is great too! For the vegan buttermilk […]

Speckled Malted Coconut Cake
The photo of this cake on Country Living’s website is just stunning and after running across this recipe I knew I was going to have to try it. I’m not a huge fan of coconut cake, much less malt, but it was just too pretty to not test out. Plus my coworkers are pretty awesome […]

I ran across this recipe for Apple Matzo Cake and thought it looked interesting, especially since it uses Matzo crackers instead of flour. As a whole this is […]

Irish Cream Cupcakes
Double posting today in honor of St. Patrick’s Day! For some crazy reason I thought it would be a good idea to try and do two things in one day…. I would not recommend that; especially if one or both items are things you’ve never tried before. Check out the Bailey’s Truffles I made here, […]

Gluten-Free Boston Cream Pie
Boston Cream Pie is one of my friend’s favorite desserts, but she can’t have gluten so I decided to try and find a recipe that was gluten-free. Thanks to the internet there are always quite a few recipes to choose from and I looked over a few, but most only used almond flour. I’ve found […]

Hot Cocoa Cake
I posted the recipe for Hot Chocolate Macarons yesterday and as promised I wanted to post part two of my themed dessert baking for this week. I saw the recipe for this Hot Cocoa Cake “The Perfect Cake” recipe book from America’s Test Kitchen and it looked so fun! I hadn’t planned on making it […]

12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 10: Bûche de Noël
This recipe was actually on the schedule for earlier in this challenge but I knew this was a beast of a project and honestly after some of the bread recipes I needed a break so I just kept pushing it back. But here it is… the day has arrived. I started this process yesterday by […]
