Hey y'all! I really want to bake a chocolate cake for Easter, but I haven't had much success with chocolate cakes in the past (my specialty is pound and spice cakes lol), but I'm really craving chocolate and I have a bag of cocoa powder I'd like to use!

Now, I have a recipe book that I've used since I was a kid and they have a recipe for Marshmallow Chocolate Cake. I've never heard of it, but it sounds good, plus the pictures on Google are kinda selling it to me lol. But it made me think, what other kinds of chocolate cakes do people make? So I wanted to ask you all for your suggestions!

Here's the pictures from the marshmallow chocolate cakes I saw on Google in case anyone else is inspired by them too lol

πŸ” Recipe Search White Chocolate Pineapple Cake Recipes

3 Upvotes

Hi friends!

My mom’s birthday is coming up, and when I asked what kind of cake she wanted, she said pineapple and white chocolate.

The problem is that none of the bakeries in my area are willing to make it (they only offer cakes that are already on their menu).

So I’ve decided to make one myself. I have made some cakes before, but never made one with this flavor combination before.

Do you have any recipes you could teach me? πŸ˜ƒ

I’d especially appreciate recipes that are moist and creamy rather than dry

Thanks in advance!

πŸ” Recipe Search Looking for a cake with a specific texture

1 Upvotes

I'm looking for a recipe to make a cake with a firm bite, not goopy (not too moist), not like a brownie which would be too moist and dense.

Not like a sponge cake which is too light and not dense enough.

Not like a standard white cake, which is too friable and coarse of a crumb.

The cake I'm looking for only needs to be an inch tall. It's going under an upper layer that will be either cheesecake or cheesecake-like.

Thanks for your help.

πŸ” Recipe Search Cake based of a biskrem biscuits

Hello! I have zero experience in baking but I want to try and make a cake based on my favourite biscuits for my birthday but all I can find when it come to executing this Idea is:

1)Cheesecakes like with oreo cold cheesecakes but I don't feel like it for a birthday.

2)The british chocolate biscuit cake.

3)biscoff cakes which is what I desire my results to be like but with biskrem biscuits.

But the problem is the 3 option works because there is a biscoff spread that make this recipe happen, I don't think there is one for biskrem.

So my question is, can I get suggestions on how to execute this Idea?

I could make a paste or spread myself too if I blend it for long enough but I want to see what most of you will do.

πŸ” Recipe Search Help decide my cake flavor

1 Upvotes

My birthday is coming up and the only thing I know is I want one of my fillings (the top one) to be a passion fruit mousse and stabilized whipped cream for frosting. I need help deciding my cake flavor and the bottom layer filling as I’m VERY indecisive about them.

Cake: vanilla chiffon cake or lemon zest white cake?

2 Filling: can’t decide between dark chocolate ganache, white chocolate ganache or a dark chocolate brigadeiro filling. I like brigadeiro, but I don’t know if it will pair well with the passion fruit.

Please send them through I need a beautiful moist marble cake recipe for my boyfriend's cake. I make a great chocolate and vanilla cake but I saw apparently it's all supposed to be the same cake texture so I probably shouldn't just mix the two recipes.
