Prior blogging, I have baked Japanese cheesecake before. I can't remember which recipe that I used but never as "drama" as these cakes that I baked for this bake-along
SNICKERS CUPCAKES. The sugar muse was upon me and the Snickers Cupcake is now in existence. Chocolate cake with a chunk of Snicker bar baked into the middle, caramel buttercream on top with a drizzle of chocolate-a sprinkling of peanuts-and a piece of Snickers on top to complete the creation
Birthday cake for my one year old Teresa. Next question -what kind of cake. I started my research and decided to go with the devil`s food cake with chocolate ganache frosting, inspired by David Lebovitz`s recipe
Everybody and their grandma has their favorite tres leches cake recipe. This coconut tres leches is my current fave, a tropical spin on the traditional tres leches cake that transports you into a cozy hammock beneath a shady beach palm in one forkful

This year I knew exactly what cake I wanted to bake for our wedding anniversary, its none other than this fresh cream pineapple pastry (pineapple gateau)
This is my second attempt making this kind of cake and the first one was nothing but failure. I was determined to make it again until I succeeded and here it is my friend, I proudly present my Lapis Cake
Coconut Tres Leche Cake. I have been dreaming of this cake. This is a super easy cake, soaked with a milky mixture laced with dark rum and coconut milk
A tres leches cake, or pastel de tres leches (from Spanish, “three milks cake”), or pan tres leches (“three milks bread”), is a sponge cake—in some recipes, a butter cake—soaked in three kinds of milk
I would crank out popcorn balls, bat cupcakes, sugar cookie ghosts, graveyard cakes, brownies and cookies all decked in Halloween colors and spooky shapes
