We’ve finally figured it out – If you want to have your cake and eat it too, the solution is simple! Bake two cakes!

National Cake Day is coming up and we’re already getting prepared to celebrate. In fact, we’ll be celebrating eleven times with all these delicious cake ideas. Do you like rich or fruity? Do you prefer simple or lots of layers and decorations? It’s all delicious so it’s entirely up to you how you’d like to celebrate. We’ve got some options to help get you inspired.

Vanilla Chiffon Cake

This Vanilla Chiffon Cake is extremely easy! It’s absolutely stunning to look at and even better to taste. As all chiffon cakes tend to be, it’s light and airy in texture.

Chocolate Cake

Chocolate – next in line when it comes to classic cake flavours! In this recipe we let you choose if you’d like to make it a sheet cake or layered. You can even make this one into cupcakes if you prefer! The only non-negotiable is the caramel drizzle.

Maple Walnut Chiffon Cake

Another light-as-air treat! Maple syrup and walnuts have a wonderful relationship. Any dessert they’re combined in is sure to be scrumptious.

Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Icing

Another irresistible classic that cheese lovers around the country will love. If a cake has vegetables in it, it’s perfectly healthy for you, right? We’d like to think so! Go ahead and indulge in this one.

Coffee Chiffon Cake

Light, fluffy and absolutely to-die-for. That’s the best way we could think to describe this beautiful dessert. The stunning glaze is also coffee flavoured. This is the perfect cake for the coffee lover in your life.

Ricotta Cheesecake

Although we love to indulge in a rich, thick cheesecake, we equally love to enjoy a lighter, airier version of the dessert. When made with ricotta, cheesecake takes on a fluffier texture and becomes lower in fat content for those who would like to go for the second slice with less of the guilt!
