Hubby and I have some super creative friends. One of these friends decided to host a “Bundt Off”. Apparently there had been a discussion about what makes a bundt a bundt. They decided it would be appropriate to have a cooking contest that revolved around the bundt pan. The only rule for the competition was that whatever you made, it had to hold the shape of a bundt pan when turned out onto a plate.

Candy cane swirl cake - The Idea Room
This is a story about a Candy Cane Swirl Cake that tasted better than it looked… {Don’t let the picture fool you…that is some creative photography…} I don’t really share my craft/cooking fails with you guys and I don’t want you to think that I never have any…cause believe me…I do. Not everything turns out like I had imagined it in my head. Can anyone relate? I wanted to share this delicious cake we made over the Christmas holidays but it was just not pretty enough to make the cut.
Have you heard of them? OMG… they are So good! What a great activity for the kids! Ours didn’t turn out as fancy as you see them in the Cake Pop book, but the triplets had a great time making them.

Strawberry Mascarpone Cream Cake (or Ice Cream Cake) | She Simmers - Thai... - StumbleUpon
I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I’ve rarely made dishes that require multiple steps. The main reason is simply that I hate washing dishes. For this cake, however, I’d wash all the dishes and scrub the kitchen floor, because it’s worth it. A simple sponge cake is prepared in advance, split in half, then gets reassembled with a mixture of mascapone cheese and cream.Dulce de Leche Vanilla Cake
First time I made this cake, it was for my boss’ birthday (say it, i’m the best employee ever!)! But seriously, this cake was amazing!!!! It’s all I want it to be! A moist vanilla cake, with layers of dulce de leche caramel and an amazing buttery icing!WOW!!!!! I know the original recipe calls for homemade dulce de leche but I have recently decided to put a limit to what I make ”homemade” (because I am crazy and I make everything myself) so I decided to just buy the dulce de leche already made.
Pumpkin Cheesecake
Ken Brown's wife brought the most amazing Pumpkin Cheesecake to the Fall'07 Art History party @ The Ponderosa (aka Kasa Kleinfelder) - Here's the recipe: Bon Appetit • October 1997 Pumpkin adds beautiful color to the all-American cheesecake while pecan praline makes a southern-style topping. Begin preparing this cake a day ahead. Servings: Serves 12.
I really need to preface this tutorial with... I am sorry. I am SURE there are easier ways to do a Vertical Layer Cake . But I was being a brat for my birthday . I wanted real cake, and not sponge cake.

S’mores Cake
Ever since I had my first one, sitting in front of a roaring campfire with a semi-clean stick skewered with lots of toasting marshmallows, I have been a big fan of s’mores. If I could go back in time, only thing I’d do differently now is to use a really clean skewer for my marshmallows, but when you’re camping and very young, you don’t tend to think about those things. I still like classic s’mores made with squares of milk chocolate, store bought graham crackers and jet puffed marshmallows. Now that my culinary skills are a little improved, however, I do like to experiment a little bit and see how I can get even more flavor out of my s’mores.Thanks for visiting Giving Up on Perfect !

Cherry Cake with Cherry Cream Cheese Frosting
I am always on the look out for recipes using cherry pie filling. Last summer I canned some sour cherries for the first time and have quite a few jars left of the homemade cherry pie filling I made. I have always loved cherries, ever since I was a kid. Whether it was fresh sweet cherries straight from the bag or cherry pie desserts, didn’t matter to me.
Zebra Cake | The Whimsical Cupcake
Animal prints is something I never really got behind. It was something that I only saw on 75 year old blue-haired ladies that are way cooler than me or on kids who looked like walking cheetahs. Not really the look I go for. Lately everywhere I look, there’s something with some form of animal print on it and I find myself liking it. Ok, not EVERYTHING but a few pieces here and there.Ever! This is really the best, most moist, most rich, most chocolatiest cake I’ve ever made. I know there are other chocolate cakes out there that claim to be the best. Folks, let me tell you, I’ve tried them.
THE BEST Chocolate Cake
After seeing Angie’s mug cakes I’ve become obsessed with making them. I’ve been a bit gung-ho with anything strawberry flavored lately so, after mastering several chocolate mug cakes, I decided to try and make a strawberries and cream mug cake. I loved the idea of a fruity flavored cake that would be delicious topped with fresh strawberries and cream this summer. Fortunately, several google searches pointed me in the direction of some great recipes and I got to work developing one of my own. What you see here is the result of several experiments and finally landing on what I hope is a great cake. My coffee mugs are kind of short and squat so this batter makes two mugs, but it would do well in one mug if it was taller than mine.
Strawberries and Cream Mug Cake
I was telling a friend about my 1-2-3 Chocolate Microwave Mug Cake and kept thinking there had to be equally easy and delicious alternatives. I had some cream cheese and sour cream in the refrigerator and played around with a microwave cheesecake. The first time I overcooked it, but the second time was a charm. It was creamy and delicate from the first bite. This cake is great for people at work, in dorms or if you just want cheesecake...fast! My Cheesecake in a Mug, is so good and versatile that you can have a different topping each day...well, maybe each time you make it!
