Ymm, Cakes

Deal!

Negotiations opened again after breakfast and wine not required. She'll be delighted to share her recipe when we return home; if she's able to locate it as she hasn't made that cake in over a decade.

I’m not much of a cake guy, but one of our administrative assistants, of Greek descent (she emigrated with her parents when she was around a year old), makes a white wine cake that is TO DIE FOR.

Thank you, Mrs. DD with a nod to head negotiator DD.

This thread is no good without recipes.

I’m not sure she’ll part with it. She hasn’t to date.

But I'm in Kansas and we will never meet.

Is it a frosted cake or pound cake? (As I search for recipes)

Does it get served with macerated peaches soaked in white wine, as well?

Sounds like a recipe for a tastee wine barrel-aged peach beer. Oh, wait...

Somewhat related, I just spent the first half of the Crystal Palace - Burnley match reading a series of articles on the chemistry of baking bread and doughs. Pretty interesting on a rainy morning tbh.

Nope. Just the cake

I second that emotion (as long as the cake has walnuts too).

[dukie’s_daughter]

Moistest cake I’ve ever eaten. Oil, water, Kahlua, and vodka...plus kahlua and powdered sugar glaze... yum!

But that white wine cake sounds intriguing!

I don’t think I’ve ever had a banana cake.

Intriguing

The Valentine Fairy brought me a luscious yellow cake with chocolate frosting, two layers, marvelous.

Valentine cake today: Chocolate fudge cake baked in 2 heart-shaped cake pans. Homemade chocolate buttercream frosting with cherry pie filling in between the layers and on top. And a large glass of milk.

Red Cake with non-cream cheese frosting for bday cake last night - delicious! Leftover piece came home with me.

Key Lime Pound Cake brought to office today - will have a piece with lunch.

Too much cake, I know, but will enjoy it anyway.

Red velvet is awesome. Also a big fan of hummingbird cake.
