I have been seeing these viral dot cakes EVERYWHERE. They are from Butterfield Bakery and are little cakes served in a small cup and topped with a crunchy layer of sprinkles. Jump to the recipe! I didn’t get the hype at first, but as soon as I tried making a dot cake, I was obsessed. This recipe makes two, and I’ve already eaten both. I tried recreating the classic vanilla dot cake, but you can also experiment with their other flavors like red velvet and chocolate. For this r

This strawberry tres leches is my new top-favorite cake, and trust me, I make a lot of cakes. Jump to the recipe! I honestly wasn’t expecting this cake to taste this good, and I thought of it randomly when I was looking at recipe inspiration for this week. This cake is so refreshing. It adds a fun twist to the traditional tres leches cake, with the addition of strawberries, and feels SO summer. I used freeze-dried strawberries in this recipe because I think they add the most

This was my first time trying a chocolate poke cake. In fact, I’ve only poke cake once in my life, and I can’t say I was too much of a fan. Jump to the recipe! However, this cake turned out so good. It is so decadent and rich, and if you love chocolate, you are going to love this recipe. The cake is filled with chocolate condensed cream, so it becomes very moist, and because it’s baked in a sheet pan, you can easily serve it to your guests. Now that I’ve tried making this cho

Meskouta is a Moroccan orange bundt cake that has become my new obsession these past few weeks. Jump to the recipe! I was craving something orange ever since the weather got warmer in Seattle, because I think orange is the definition of Spring. I stumbled across this cake by chance when I was actually trying to find a recipe for a red velvet bundt cake. I know both cakes are quite unrelated, but somehow, by luck, I was able to learn more about this cake. It’s simple yet delic

I saw this ube tiramisu on my TikTok recently, and I got inspired to recreate it! It’s an easy-to-make variation of the classic tiramisu. Jump to the recipe! I feel like I’ve been finding all of my recipes through social media these days, because I’ve been trying to branch out beyond the average funfetti or chocolate cake. I want to try new recipes from around the world, and I love how this cake is a fusion between Italian and Filipino cuisine! Ube is a kind of sweet yam and

Can you believe it’s been 100 weeks of my cakes around the world challenge? I sure can’t. This time flew by; I can’t even admit that I’ve been working on this project for almost two years now. Jump to the recipe! I’ve been wanting to make this zebra cake for a long time, because I think the stripes are so mesmerizing to look at. Plus, the design is fun and playful, perfect for 100 weeks of baking. Now that I’m done baking this cake, I’m also thinking of experimenting with ube

I recently visited Boston and tried Mike’s Pastry. It specializes in cannolis, and trust me, it’s totally worth the hype. Jump to the recipe! I’ve tried two cannolis from Mike’s Pastry: the pistachio and the chocolate chip. Both were so good, but I really liked the chocolate chip flavor. I wanted to try recreating the flavors of the cannoli in cake form, especially after seeing recipes like it on my TikTok. With the flavors still fresh in my taste buds, I am excited to report

Tiramisu is probably one of my favorite desserts, and I order it every time my family goes to an Italian restaurant. Jump to the recipe! However, as a South Asian myself, I have always thought of how delicious a chai tiramisu would be. Today, I tried it for the first time, and trust me, it is so worth it. I may never go back to the classic espresso tiramisu again. This chai tiramisu is packed with spices and flavor, and the tea rusk is a fun twist on the usual ladyfingers. Te
