The snow has melted and it's officially s'mores season! Yep, you can catch me out pretty much every weekend in the backyard by the fire roasting up a marshmallow to golden perfection ready to be sandwiched and devoured in s'mores delight! To celebrate this season, I've created an incredibly rich and easy S'Mores Cake packed full of chocolate, cookies, and marshmallow goodness in every single bite. Let's start s'moring!
The crowd has spoken. And spoken quite clearly, might I add. A chocolate chip cookie cake has been highly requested on repeat and I'm here to please. Four fluffy chocolate chip cookie cake layers packed full of brown sugar and mini chocolate chips and all wrapped in the most wonderful whipped brown sugar cream cheese buttercream frosting. Oh, and did I mention I added a ridiculously delicious amount of chocolate chips to the cookie dough-like frosting too?!
The snow starts to melt and all of a sudden I am craving everything fresh and fruity. This Orange Blossom cake is totally that. Fresh and fruity with a subtle floral hint, these orange blossom cake layers baked up to fluffy perfection. Paired with a zesty orange marmalade filling and a tangy whipped cream cheese buttercream frosting, this Orange Blosson cake was summer fresh fruity floral perfection.
Honey and lavender. A flavor match made in spring heaven. And these small-batch Honey Lavender Cupcakes are a true love pairing. Topped with fluffy honey lavender buttercream frosting, these moist and naturally sweetened cupcakes are baked to perfection. Using homemade lavender milk, these cupcakes have a gorgeous light lavender scent and taste that is highlighted with the warmth and sweetness of the honey.
Mini Eggs. Those oval little chocolate treats of pure Easter/Spring deliciousness. That crunchy pastel-colored shell hiding the oh so gloriously smooth sweet chocolate inside. Heaven. Pure heaven. Pure Mini Egg heaven. And I've created a heavenly Mini Egg Cake that trumps even a handful, nay...a bag full (cuz I know you are eating those suckers by the bag), of the well-known and loved Mini Eggs.
Amazingly fluffy almond cake layers paired with a sweet homemade strawberry sauce whipped buttercream frosting that practically sings summer. This Strawberry Almond Cake is everything fresh and fruity that a summer-inspired layer cake should be. Topped with chopped almonds for a slightly salty crunch element that will have your tastebuds rejoicing.
Do you like lemons? Great. What about raspberries? Even better! This Lemon Raspberry Layer Cake is the cake for you! Bursting with fresh fruity flavors that are both sweet and tart, this dairy-free lemon cake with raspberry filling and cream cheese buttercream is the cake of your dreams! Perfect for a spring birthday or celebration.
Let's make banana bread. But like, not just any banana bread, the funnest of fun Funfetti Banana Bread! Colourful sprinkles take this ordinary banana loaf to extraordinary. But let's not stop there. Should we glaze it and double up on the sprinkles? Yep, the inner 6-year-old in me thinks this is clearly the best choice.
Vanilla Cake. The ultimate in classic cake flavours. And dare I say, one of the trickiest cake flavours to nail down too. This vanilla cake is light, fluffy, has a beautiful soft crumb, and is completely 100% dairy-free. And guess what, I bet you wouldn't even be able to tell it was dairy-free because it's out-of-this-world delicious.
Grape. I always have been and always will be a grape girl. Red grapes, green grapes, purple grapes. It truly doesn't matter, if it's grape-flavoured count me in. Here's the tricky thing about grape...it's a hard flavour to produce, baking wise, in a non-artificial way.
