This recipe for Tres Leches Cake is from The Food Network. I saw Alton Brown’s episode on Tres Leches Cake and went looking for his recipe first. When I couldn’t find it right away, I stopped to look at the other recipes and decided on a different one with more eggs and less […]

This is another recipe inspired by a great one from the Food Network. Their original is from the Retro Desserts cookbook. Peanut butter and bananas is one of my favourite combinations, so I’ve had this recipe on my list for some time now. The cake is baked as a loaf cake, […]

This recipe was inspired by one for a Chocolate Truffle Pound Cake from Diana at Dianas Desserts. I was looking for a way to use the raspberry icing that I botched when making my daughter’s birthday cake. (Which again, I have been keeping in the freezer. I love my freezer. It […]

This cake has been a three day effort in honour of my daughter’s 5th birthday. She described to me in quite good detail exactly what she wanted. The title above is what she’s been calling it. I went to my list of recipes and found one I thought would fit the […]

This recipe is from Feast by Nigella Lawson. I found it at Not Quite Nigella. The idea of so much chocolate in one cake was instantly appealing to me. Not Quite Nigella says the chocolate chips fell to the bottom of her cake. I used a trick of coating the chocolate […]

I found the recipe for this cake on What’s For Lunch Honey? Meeta says she developed this recipe from her pantry when she was craving chocolate and her son was craving chocolate cake. It is not the richest chocolate cake I have ever had but it is really good. It […]

This delectable cake is from Cookie Madness. This is my third gluten-free Christmas and the first Christmas that my mother-in-law asked me to bring a gluten-free dessert. I saw this cake and knew it would be just the thing, even if I was the only one who ate most of it. Most […]

Yes, there really is a cake under there…somewhere.
I barely managed to save this cake from being a puddle of muddy goo. The recipe for the cake is from Diana’s Desserts. The marshmallow is from Grouprecipes. I love to try different recipes and experiment with them. I had the idea to […]
