Flavours

The most popular options for the inside of a celebration cake are:

  • Coconut — A moist sponge made with shredded coconut and coconut milk, filled with raspberry jam and Malibu buttercream (non-alcoholic)
  • Vanilla Buttermilk — This is a delicious light sponge flecked with lots of real Madagascan Bourbon vanilla which goes well with a raspberry/ strawberry jam and vanilla buttercream filling
  • Carrot — Moist sunflower oil-based sponge packed with carrots, chopped walnuts and sultanas, filled with a cream cheese frosting
  • Red Velvet — A tender sponge flavoured with cocoa and traditionally filled and covered with a cream-cheese frosting, this American recipe is a deep vibrant red colour.
  • Sour Cream and Chocolate — The best chocolate cake recipe that I have ever come across, the sour-cream gives this fine-crumbed cake a wonderful moist smoothness which is loved by both children and adults alike. And I can actually eat the sour-cream and chocolate icing with a spoon…
  • Butterscotch — A rich caramel-flavoured sponge sandwiched with caramel and vanilla buttercream
  • Lemon — Layers of zesty sponge flavoured with fresh lemon zest and lemon extract, with a homemade lemon curd and lemon cream-cheese frosting filling
  • Coffee — My mother’s favourite cake flavour, soft, fragrant coffee-flavoured sponge, layered with espresso-spiked buttercream
  • White Chocolate — A vanilla-forward recipe made with grated white chocolate and filled with a white chocolate cream-cheese frosting
  • Chocolate Orange — My signature Sour-Cream and Chocolate taken to the next level thanks to orange zest and real orange extract
  • Chocolate Nutella — A rich fudgy nutty cake with a Nutella-based chocolate frosting filling

It’s possible to add fresh fruit to many of these flavours, let me know what you have in mind!
