Chocolate Lovers BEWARE!

I have found a new fun dessert! It is called: Chocolate Flourless Cake! It is a rich, dense chocolate cake and tastes sooooooooooooooo chocolately good! It definitely belongs in a high class restaurant!
It is Gluten and Wheat free, so it is a great way for EVERYONE to have their cake and eat it too!!! It can be paired with almost anything! I did one cake for my fiance's birthday where we stacked fresh strawberries on top. The next day we had the cake with homemade vanilla ice cream!



Here is the cake pictured with a blackberry sauce and handmade whipped cream. I even warmed it up for a warm chocolate appeal :)

♪ Oh Girls Just Wanna Have Fun ♪

This Bachlorette party cake was designed to look like lingerie. I was told the bride-to-be LOVES chocolate as well as the colors bright pink and black (which are also her wedding colors!) So I definitely made sure to make this fit her preferences :) It was fun to make and the girls seemed to enjoy the finished product as well!

She also responded with a follow up comment of: "You are so talented! oh and by the way all the other girls were amazed at your work as well! Two thumbs way way up!! : )" -Claire
A response from the buyer was: "It looks like Claire already did, but I wanted to say how amazing your cake was and thank you for making it for us! The bride really enjoyed it and her reaction was priceless :) " -Martha

Coconut Cake!

[Not Pictured, I forgot to take a picture before it was picked up]

Yesterday, I made a coconut cake that turned out delicious! It was a two layer round yellow cake with hints of coconut. It had a cream cheese frosting that covered the whole thing and was then covered in shredded coconut on top of that! It was moist, sweet, and had a great amount of coconut flavor inside and out :) A simple design, compared to the other creations, but one of my favorites to bake!

The customer wrote me today and said: "Erica- Just wanted you to know that the cake was AWESOME!!! Very moist and rich! The birthday girl loved it! Thanks so much!!!!"

I love making smiles through my cakes ♥
