White Chocolate Cake with Raspberry Filling + White Chocolate Swiss Meringue Buttercream
This white chocolate cake is my favorite white cake recipe. The white chocolate adds a bit of flavor that I find lacking in most white cake recipes.

Mixed Berry Crumb Cake
Let's talk about berries... It may be winter here right now, but that doesn't mean that berries aren't on the menu. Frozen berries works great in this recipe, so you can enjoy moist, berry-studded coffee cake year-round. I prefer a combination of tart Michigan cherries, blueberries, and raspberries, but you can use as many or...

I am not completely sure of its origins despite my research, so I will just continue to enjoy the perfect balance of spiced cake and sweet cream cheese frosting. Not to...
Pineapple Upside Down Cake
We're going retro today, and I'm loving it...canned fruit and all. Pineapple Upside Down Cake is bright and cheery, and just what I needed in my life to celebrate the arrival of Spring. Beside that, going more than a week or two without baking a cake makes me ache inside. I was inspired to make this cake...
Merry Christmas + Red Velvet Cake
A very Merry Christmas to you all! I hope your day is filled with joy, peace, hope, and love. And desserts. Around our house, we don't make cookies for Santa. The reason that we celebrate this day is to rejoice in the birth of Jesus. If that doesn't call for birthday cake, then I don't...
