There are a few rules that we follow, but the most important ones are to have fun and enjoy baking & eating cakes!

I have to say, I am loving this cookbook.  Not only are the recipes well written and easy to follow but the cakes are the perfect size.  Being a blogger means that you do a fair amount of baking and, especially during COVID, you have more than your family could ever eat. All of the cakes in this cookbook are small enough that your family can enjoy it for dessert one night and a snack the next day.....or, if you live in my household, breakfast the next day.

 I chose to top my cake with a dollop of whipped cream and some raspberries.  I think it would be equally delicious served warm with a dollop of ice cream.  If you really want to go all out....pour some hot fudge over the top.
