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.
Peanut butter and chocolate cake. Probably the most frequently requested cake flavour back when I took custom orders. Young and old alike. It seems that almost everyone enjoys a chocolate and peanut butter cake. Perhaps it's that delicious combination of salty and sweet, or the known goodness of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups but this cake combo is always a crowd-pleaser.
I will be the first person to admit that I'm not 100% sold on Red Velvet. I have yet to nail down a dairy-free version that knocks my socks off but with that said, this Red Velvet trifle turned out way better than I anticipated. Fun and delicious layers made up of...
Chocolate and strawberries are yum. Chocolate and raspberries are yummier. And chocolate and both strawberries and raspberries is the ultimate yummiest! Case and point, this delectable Chocolate Berry cake. I've got a brand new chocolate cake recipe and it's oh so wonderfully fluffy with that rich moist chocolate flavour reminiscent of a devil's food cake. Paired with a strawberry raspberry buttercream...this Chocolate Berry cake is plate-licking good.
I found myself humming and hawing over what cake to create for our weekly Sunday Family Cake tradition when I went to go drop off a few things at my dad’s house. We were chatting in his kitchen when I spied a bottle of cinnamon vanilla Baileys on the counter by the coffee pot and WHAM! Just like that! Cake inspiration hit.
