One of the things I love most about summer birthda

One of the things I love most about summer birthdays is being able to incorporate fresh fruit into the cake.🍓

This is a sweet little (almost vegan) chocolate cake with whipped chocolate coconut cream icing and chocolate mirror glaze that I made for my daughter recently. I need to work out some kinks with the glaze but, oh, this was yummy.

Introducing one heckuva vibrant @mmscanada fault line cake! 🎂 I am really happy with how this cake turned out for my twins’ 12th birthday. 🎉 My kids picked the flavours and left the design up to me. Then they dutifully stayed away from the kitchen while I was decorating so it would be a surprise. ☺️
•
You know when you have a vision in mind and then you manage to execute that vision? That was this cake. I knew I wanted to do another fault line cake (I made one for my daughter’s sweet 16 last summer) and that I wanted it to be bright. I also wanted to make something fun and festive to distract from the fact that a birthday during quarantine meant no party with friends. Mission accomplished! 🥳
•
They had a fabulous day and we will be eating cake for the next week. 🍰🤣

Sometimes you spend several days on a cake. Sometimes you try a new gluten-free box mix on a whim and put it together with a chocolate coconut cream frosting. And the result is the same: gratitude and a belly full of deliciousness. 😍

Happy 14th to my eldest son. ❤️ #glutenfreechocolate #glutenfreeboxmix #homemadecake #chocolatecoconutfrosting

Who needs cake (🙋🏼‍♀️) when you can build a tower of donuts? 🍩

Baked keto/paleo donuts have quickly become a favourite around here and it turns out they’re a hit with the teen boy crowd. 🍩👏🏻😋 #donuttower #birthdaydonuts #teenbirthday

Happy Valentine’s Day! ❤️ Going flourless and without refined sugar (well, except for the melted chocolate chips, that is). I hope it tastes as lovely as it looks!

What sweet treats will you be indulging in today?

Merry Christmas! 🎄 I didn’t bake as much as I usually do at Christmas and we STILL had more than enough. 🍪 What did you whip up for the holidays?

That moment you realize Christmas is less than three weeks away — THREE WEEKS — and you haven’t yet started baking. 😮

What are you baking for the holidays this year?

Raise your hand if you’re still eating Thanksgiving leftovers. 🙋🏼‍♀️ Raise your hand if you’re not mad about it. 🙋🏼‍♀️🤣 There’s still a tiny bit of this carrot cake left and I’m wondering just how long we can stretch it out. Sooooo good. 🥕🍰 #thanksgivingdessert #thanksgivingleftovers #carrotcake #homemadecarrotcake #carrotcakewithcreamcheesefrosting

It’s a 💕pretty in pink cake 💕 for a ✨sweet 16✨ birthday (a day early).
🥳
This is my first attempt at a fault line cake and I’m so happy with how it turned out. Just like I envisioned. There is a boat load of icing in that thing, though!

This is a four-layer (1x8”, 2x6”, 1x6”) lemon cake 🍰 with lemon Swiss meringue buttercream filling and covered in strawberry Swiss meringue buttercream, per the birthday girl’s request.

The embellishments were left up to me. The macarons are courtesy of @amadeuspatisserie at @uppercanadamall @shopmarketco. The only thing left is the taste test. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Red, white, and 🙌🏻! Today we celebrated Canada’s 152nd birthday! 🇨🇦🎉😍 Of course, a get-together with friends, especially on a holiday, calls for holiday-inspired treats. So for today, I made donuts dressed up in Canadian colours and mini strawberry cheesecakes on homemade graham cracker cookies shaped like maple leafs. So yummy!! #canadaday #happycanadaday #ericablogscakes

Birthday cake? Or birthday donuts? How about both?

Birthday cake? Or birthday donuts? How about both? 🎂🍩🙌🏻
•
This four-layer vanilla and strawberry beauty was made for my twins’ 11th birthday last week. 😍
•
I consulted with them first, of course, and then brought my vision to life in a 22-hour baking-and-decorating marathon. The real test was whether their guests would enjoy it — kids are notorious for taking two bites and leaving the rest, or eating either only the cake or the icing. I’m happy to report it was a hit. 👍🏻
•
I made my own strawberry reduction for the cake and icing. The cake has a much more natural-pink hue since I didn’t add any food colouring. The buttercream picked up the colour of the berries much more. 🍓

I used the upside-down buttercream scraping and the Viva paper towel smoothing techniques. The drip was made of white chocolate chips, a little cream, and food colouring and was spooned on around the edges first then filled in on top and smoothed with an offset spatula. 🍰

The baked donuts were also homemade from favourite recipes. They add so much fun to this cake. I loved making it. 💖
