Cake Parade
I’ve got a post coming up for you soon about my (fairly) recent trip/eating binge in San Francisco with Foodbuzz. For now, since it’s a holiday and holiday’s deserve cake, I thought I’d take you on a small picture-heavy tour of what has been coming out of Baker E’s kitchen lately.
Home-made lime curd (available for purchase at Green Aisle Grocery!) is sandwiched between layers of moist vanilla cake, topped with a light vanilla frosting and more lime curd, then decorated with strawberries.
Dense devil’s food cake is layered with rich chocolate American buttercream, filled with marshmallow fluff. The whole thing is frosted with more chocolate buttercream and garnished with graham cracker crumbs and additional marshmallows.
Light chocolate cake is frosted with caramel cream cheese frosting, then drizzled with more caramel and finished with chocolate shavings.
This cake should only be attempted with blackberries are at their finest. Moist vanilla cake is frosted with Vanilla buttercream and stuffed and topped with ripe blackberries.
Mashed sweet potato added to vanilla buttermilk batter gives this cake a tender crumb and seasonal flare. Frosted with cream cheese frosting and garnished with pecans or walnuts.
White cake, marshmallow fillings and peanut butter buttercream.
Lime flavored cake, stuffed with home-made lime curd, covered with lime buttercream and garnished with graham cracker crumbs.
A classic birthday cake: Yellow cake with dark chocolate frosting and rainbow sprinkles.
Perfect for special occasions, mini red velvet cupcakes look exquisitely cute and taste just a nice. Look for my mini red velvet cupcakes spiked with Root Liqueur at Art in the Age, starting Feb 10th.
Best when strawberries are in season, layers of white or yellow cake are stuffed with a whipped vanilla frosting and tons of berries!
If you’re in need of a cake, box of cookies or special dessert for any occasion, I would love to make it for you!
