    Cakes & Cupcakes

    CAKE, CAKE, CAKE! I love cake and these are some of my favorite recipes. Along with cake I love a really good buttercream and Swiss Meringue is my go-to for my layer cakes, but I'm never opposed to a chocolate or lemon glaze. I hope you enjoy these recipes are inspired to bake them or come up with your own flavor combinations.
