Foodie Friday: It's My Birthday & I Will Eat Cake If I Want To


Yes, it is my birthday, and I take the cake part of the day very seriously.  I normally bake my own, but my new digs are right across the street from a world class patisserie. So this year, I shall have the prettiest cake ever!  Treat someone you love to one of these!


Coconut Cake with Coconut Meringue Buttercream Frosting
One of my favorite cakes, especially the buttercream meringue. This cake is made with coconut oil, coconut milk, and buttermilk. Yum!
My Three Seasons

Caramel Cake
This cake gets my vote for most unique. I have never had a caramel cake, have you? But I will tell you that homemade caramel sauce is super special. I just made some yesterday. If any cake could be chic, this is it.

The Best Carrot Cake In The World
Well, that title says a lot! My own mother's was pretty darn good. This recipe features the same elements that her recipe did ~ shredded carrots, pineapple, coconut and raisons. This cake sounds like a symphony of flavors.

Dark Chocolate Mousse Cake
One of my all time favorites. There is a good balance between the cake, frosting, ganache, and mousse. Cake perfection!

Chiffon Party Cake with Almost-French Buttercream
I have never made a chiffon cake, but my Grandmother did. They are as light as air thanks to all of the egg whites. This recipe is included because I just love the title. Who doesn't like a party cake?

Ultimate Triple Layer Chocolate Bourbon Peanut Butter Buckeye Cake
Have you had a Buckeye yet? It is the best candy that I have ever had, and my sister-in-law does it well. Add peanut butter and bourbon, then you have a birthday party for your mouth.

Blueberry Lemon Custard Cake
 This cake is said to be "an extremely soft, zesty, and sweet cake, bursting with all the favorite flavors of spring." Lemon and blueberries always are a delicious duo!

Chocolate Cake with Raspberry Buttercream
Who could resist such a pretty pink cake? It's  triple layer loveliness!

Gin & Tonic Cake
Well, sure, I'll take a cocktail for dessert. It is said that this sheet cake is super moist, soft and fluffy. And then there is the gin. Cheers!

S'mores Layer Cake
Now this is a party!
