For my mom 💛


Birthday cake I made for my mom. This is my first square cake, I expected it to be more difficult to frost than a round cake and it certainly was 😅

It's a spiced apple cake with homemade salted caramel and cinnamon cream cheese frosting.

I used this recipe for the cake layers, didn't change anything.

I used Sally's recipe for the salted caramel, and the frosting was just a traditional cream cheese frosting with some cinnamon added.

    I have to say. It pleases me to no end that you not only focused on an absolutely STUNNING exterior (like…wow)….but you made something that sounds phenomenally delicious.

    I can tell you how many gorgeous cakes I’ve seen with vanilla on vanilla on vanilla. Apple cinnamon and caramel?! Stahp. That sound so good.

    It brings a different meaning to the phrase “Box Cake”. Nice job!
