After seeing countless recipes for mochi cakes lately on the interwebs, and given my pretty well known obsession with mochi… I couldn’t resist trying to make one of my own versions of a mochi cake. I also recently ran across an Indonesian cake that had shredded coconut and sweet white rice flour as the base- [...]

My hubs and I just celebrated our ♥ wedding anniversary ♥. I made this raspberry chocolate cake for us to indulge in, along with a bottle of wine from our wedding. The cake (which has since been completely polished off) had a delicate crumb and fragrant ribbon of fresh raspberries and preserves in the middle of each slice. [...]

This is a super easy (and delicious) recipe that is guaranteed to please. The cake is yummy with or without the frosting. But, the frosting is yummy with or without the cake, so it’s best to just combine the two. ♥ Bookmark Digg Facebook Reddit Stumble Twitter Subscribe to the comments on this post Like Unlike

Okay, when I say this cake is super sticky… I mean it is super friggin’ sticky. See how the cake kinda dips in the center? I’m not exactly certain why this happened. :| My guess is: incredibly moist (and heavy) cake with crispier ( therefore lighter) edges = cake that sinks in the middle. But [...]

Okay, this pie does not actually contain ice cream. But, when the creamy mousse and cashew cream layers are frozen, they sure could pass for ice cream. It is rich with flavor and kind of indulgent as far as ingredients go. But, Valentine’s day is coming up, right? So why not splurge on yourself… or [...]

Cupcakes are an essential part of one’s diet… so, it is entirely necessary for me to figure out a few good gluten-free versions. This cupcake is a good start, its tangy and sweet, with a generous amount of spice (because I still can’t get into the way “wheat-less” batter tastes). I used a flour [...]

What a great gift to receive- thank you so much, RawFoodNut! I also really wanted to create a new version of my all time favorite- blackberry vegan cheesecake. [...]

I love the holidays… especially the festive drinks and desserts. With these, I can have my cake and eat it too! These cupcakes are moist and light, and the flavor of nutmeg really adds a seasonal touch. They also keep well, making them a perfect take along to a holiday get-together. In these I [...]

This is a great recipe to play around with. I’ll just give you the gist and let you decide the details. This cake works great with regular sugar or brown sugar, margarine, oil, or shortening, raisins or other dried fruit, nuts or no nuts, whatever spices you choose…terrifically endless options. Even the pan size shouldn’t [...]

I really like this cake. And, I would really like to show you how beautiful it looks -when presented as a whole cake. The cranberries and sugar cap the cake with a thick, deep red glaze. But I cannot show you. I was a fool and rushed with this recipe -trying to release it from [...]
