    Cakes

    Cake recipes can seem overwhelming. But this collection of easy cakes takes a simpler approach, leaning into flavor over fuss. Here you’ll find simple as can be Olive Oil Cakes or seasonal skillet cakes full of fruit like this Blueberry Peach Cornmeal Skillet Cake. Go bold with beautiful Bundt Cake recipes that do all of the decorative work for you.

    Explore stunning yet simple layer cakes, like my Nectarines and Crème Pink Peppercorn Honey Cake that is a whole lot easier to make than it looks! Or bake up a cute batch of individually sized Mini Strawberry Lemon Cupcakes and the elegant, cakey cookies known as Madeleines. One of my favorite recipes is the nostalgic blast of bright and citrusy cuteness that is my Orange Cream Cake, inspired by the old school Orange Hostess Cupcakes.

    Whatever you’re celebrating, I’ve got a cake recipe for the occasion!
