The combination of cocoa cake, whipped cream and sour cream is generally known as “Black Forest”. My version, since I already have a cake on the blog, is Black Forest Cake Roll – cocoa cake roll with mascarpone and sour cherry filling. It is made with soft cocoa cake. The original recipe is inspired by a French dessert – Buche…

Seasonal fruits are gone so here comes the time when I use what I find in the store/in the house. There were mint thins, or in other words After Eight, in sale. Since I already have a cheesecake-tart on the blog, I decided for another variation. Mint and chocolate are an inseparable combination so I made Brownie Mint and Chocolate…

Ricotta was on sale a few weeks ago so I bought two packages. One of them went straight into a chocolate cake. The original recipe is from a French magazine, where the cake is baked in a bread baking pan, but it would be very low so I made it in a round pan. Chocolate Cake Stuffed with Ricotta is…

When I was looking for an inspiration on Pinterest, a picture of a chocolate cake with white filling and ladyfingers dipped in coffee popped out. Therefore, I made my version of Brownie Tiramisu. Traditional brownie cake, which we bake, then apply a little bit of lemon tiramisu filling so the ladyfingers hold better. Then, we add ladyfingers dipped in coffee…

Vanilla Speculoos Salted Caramel Cheesecake could be nowadays considered as a popular dessert; therefore it can´t be missed on this blog either. A subtle vanilla taste of the basic cheesecake, the sweetness and saltiness of caramel is a great combination, no wonder it is so popular. You can find many recipes for this cheesecake on Internet, but this is mine,…

Such a simple cake is also this Quick Apple Cocoa Bundt Cake. You don´t need…

It got a bit cold so I already collected all the fruits from my garden, just to be sure. I collected pears as well and it would be shame not to use them. I decided to make Pear Speculoos Tart. If you ever tried Lotus or Speculoos cookies you know that they have a pleasant caramel and spicy taste. This…

I already did a post with pears; therefore, apples are next. I´m not in the mood for anything lately so I prefer simple and quick cakes with not much of ingredients. All these three criteria are present in the cake which even has the adjective “simple” in its name – Simple Creamy Apple Cake. You need only a few ingredients…

Plums are already falling from trees so something needs to be done with them. For example, this Plum Almond Crumble Tart. It is made with kneaded dough with cinnamon, fresh plums and sprinkled with crumble, which is not ordinary since it composes almond flakes. Firstly, you bake the dough in the oven for a couple minutes so it is lightly…

I don´t have as many pears as I usually did previous years, but I managed to find a few for a cake. I wanted to try Chocolate Pear Bread last year, but you need firm, not soft pears so I had to wait until this year. This Chocolate Pear Bread is really simple, quick and you don´t need any special…

Although it is only the end of the August, pumpkin is almost ripe so no need to wait until the fall, you can use it right away. I don´t really like pumpkin sauce, but pumpkin in a cake, that is something else. You can try, for example, these Simple Pumpkin Cake Bars with Cream Cheese Frosting. When it comes to…

As the garden slowly turns into a fall mode (apples, pears and plums ripen), it was about time to use up a few raspberries that remained. I saw a photo of a beautiful mille feuille on the Internet, so I got into it right away. Mille feuille is originally a French dessert, literally translated as “a thousand leaves”, a metaphor…

I didn´t even notice and currant season is almost over. Not that I wanted to make some jam or what, but I wanted to make at least one cake. I managed to make Red Currant White Chocolate Cheesecake. Since I think red currants are too sour, I wanted to combine them with something really sweet and white chocolate is a…

Blackberry season is on and maybe you were also wondering what kind of a cake to make with them, but besides a traditional bundt cake, pound cake and muffins, you didn´t get any other idea. I always get this block with blackberries, but mostly with currants and gooseberries. Therefore, when I saw a recipe for Blackberry Coconut Tart in a…

I wanted to pick up some blueberries two weeks ago but, of course, there weren´t any. I bought them now and managed to save up some for winter. Lemon is a great match to blueberries, it is clear from other recipes on my blog since the lemon blueberry combination is present in about three recipes. It is their season now…

I don´t have my own apricots this year, they all fell from the tree or the tree had some infection, I don´t know. At least there is still someone who is willing to give a few of them to me or I can buy them on a market. I was thinking what to do with them and I eventually made…

Raspberries are finally here. I´m excited about it since there is no better combination than raspberries and chocolate. However, I chose to leave out chocolate this time. I´ve been thinking about the bold red color of red velvet cake for a while and it came to me to combine it with raspberries. There was finally the time for fresh raspberries,…
