Salted Caramel Frosted Chocolate Cake


This is one of my all-time favorite chocolate cakes. I just love chocolate and caramel together and this cake is the perfect combination of the two.
The chocolate cake is everything that I love in a chocolate cake and has a ton of chocolate flavor. The caramel buttercream is so good, with a lot of caramel flavor and the salted part of the caramel keeps everything from being too sweet.

1st Birthday Smash Cake - Banana Bread and Cream Cheese Frosting



The smash cake was a banana bread with cream cheese frosting. The party was an army/camouflaged theme and the parents had requested a camo design for the smash cake.
The parents had to show the birthday boy how to dig into the cake, but he did manage to make a good mess and get a few bites into his mouth. In the end, I think his mom enjoyed the cake more than he did.

Lemon Blueberry Muffins


After searching online through many recipes and trying several, I have finally found one that has met the one requirement that I look for in a lemon blueberry muffin - tons of lemon flavor. I love that I can have lemon blueberry muffins any time I want now.

Strawberry Ice Cream & Red Velvet Cake with Strawberry Buttercream


This cake was inspired by Coldstone's Strawberry Passion Ice Cream Cake.

My inspiration for this cake

The strawberry buttercream and ice cream had great strawberry flavor. The buttercream was on the sweet side, but the homemade ice cream helped cut the sweetness. The red velvet cake was moist and delicious.




It was delicious for being a test try and I will definitely be making this again, though there will be some changes including the addition of graham crackers.
