5 Ways With Cake

Wednesday 29th March 2017

Cake is a wonderous thing. There are many many flavours and once you've got the flavours you desire you can add any kind of icing, or cream or toppings or decorations. These are my five favourites.

5. Grandfathers Cake
My Grandma used to always make a cake she called Grandfathers cake. It was chocolate cake filled with sultanas and currants. I never really loved the fruit in it but I loved the cake itself and I loved that my Grandma would ice it half with sprinkles and half with coconut. She did it like that because her daughter (my mum) didn't like the coconut but her husband (my grandad) did.
4. Fun Fetti
Fun fetti. It's vanilla cake but with sprinkles. Sprinkles make everything better especially when paired with freshly made buttercream frosting which is just delicious. Sprinkles and buttercream frosting with more sprinkles sprinkled on top is just heaven. You should definitely try it one day if you have the chance.
3. Chocolate Cake
When you ask the question, 'What is your favourite time of cake?" most people will respond with 'chocolate'. I'm not the biggest fan of chocolate but there is something about a large slice of chocolate cake being served to you.
2. New York Cheesecake
Cheesecake, in general, is just amazing. But New York Style cheesecake is by far my favourite. It's creamy delicious and baked, unlike other cheesecakes which are either frozen or refrigerated. You can serve or eat it with anything, whipped cream, berries, ice cream even if that's what you're into.

1. Red Velvet 
Ah, the red. Personally, for me, nothing beats a nice big slice of red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting.  It's basically a chocolate cake with red food colouring, I don't know how or why but by just adding the red food colouring it makes everything different.

I don't have the biggest sweet tooth but I do have a knack for baking. At least once a week I like to bake a batch of cupcakes or a cake and give them away to others. I got this trait from my Grandma who when she was younger used to bake every Saturday for her mother and grandmother. I love baking and I love decorating and even love eating, but I would much rather eat a plate of vegetables than a slice of cake but sometimes that's just what you need.
