Blueberry Orange Bundt Cake! Classic, dense and co Blueberry Orange Bundt Cake! Classic, dense and covered in a gorgeous crème fraiche glaze. Not too sweet thanks to the sweet tart burst of blueberries and brightness from the orange. It’s the kind of cake you make for dessert, but end up eating breakfast and everything in between. ❤️ Link to the recipe in my profile! (Adapted from my first cookbook, The Vanilla Bean Baking Book and @edibleliving’s Cranberry Bundt cake from her book.)

This Czech pastry is a sibling to the Danish, filled with sweet cream cheese and the slightest hint of lemon. Link to the RECIPE in my profile! Adapted from the @testkitchen Bread Illustrated cookbook.
Chocolate Layer Cake with Espresso Buttercream! I’ve been putting coffee in buttercream for years, but espresso has a stronger and bolder flavor, which I appreciate. Pairing the espresso with moist chocolate cake (which is also infused with coffee) is an especially delicious way to cake. And I love the square look from using 8 inch square pans, rather than circular for a fun change.⁣ ⁣ Link to the RECIPE in my profile!⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ••••••••••••••••••••⁣ #chocolatecakes #bakingblog #buttercreamfrosting #cakerecipe
