“Cake is happiness! If you know the way of the cake, you know the way of happiness!
If you have a cake in front of you, you should not look any further for joy!” - C Joybell C

I hope you enjoy sharing my favourite "cakes from scratch" recipes. The taste of a delicious home baked cake is something that cannot be reproduced from a prepacked box! Here you will find a range of recipes for all occasions. Many are very easy and can be whipped up and on the table with very little time or effort.

Home baking is a wonderful way to express love and friendship. We mark each milestone with a birthday cake, offer a home made cake to guests, or take some baking to work to share for morning tea. Christmas, Valentines, Easter, Thanksgiving and many other very special occasions are celebrated with special cakes. The centerpiece of a wedding reception is invariably a spectacular creation with much thought and preparation going into it.

Cake shared shows you care....you never need wonder what to give as a gift. Beautifully presented, a home made cake says it all!
