Vanilla berry salted caramel drip Indulgence cake

Madagascan Vanilla cake, filled with home-made strawberry & orange compote, White chocolate ganache vanilla buttercream, topped with salted caramel drip, fresh berries and custom made chocolate toppers.

Did you know that Vanilla is the hardest cake(flavour) to get right when you bake from scratch? It is a well-known mystery among cake decorators (or should we say, among bakers who does not use pre-mixes?).

A lot of cake makers say It is so hard to get the vanilla cake recipe right, chocolate cake is fine, mud cake is fine but not the vanilla!

Vanilla cake is not very forgiving because you don’t have another flavour or ingredient, to hide if it is not strong enough. When you think about it the vanilla recipe is the base of every cake, every cake has a bit of vanilla plus an “Extra” flavouring ingredient, such as cocoa powder, strawberry etc.  Now you have to make a cake without those extras, there is nowhere to hide!

Luckily after a lot of trial and testing we have been able to come up with a signature recipe and method, that produces “The Perfect” vanilla cake.

Public announcement,

Please do not ask how we make our (Vegan) Buttercream, we know it tastes different from any other buttercream – and it is hard to believe there is no egg or dairy. But it is a “Trade secret” 🙂 !

This cake was ordered by a daughter for her mothers 50th birthday – fresh berries, and a cake designed to suit the theme were requested.

We tried to focus on the colours,  using less bright colours so the little details that were going to add could shine.

“Made in the Bloominghills kitchen” chocolate bark was added for some texture and snap.

We call it  “Liquid Gold”. The dairy free Bloominghills home-made salted caramel drip was added for flavour and a decadent look.

Have you seen our chocolate drip cake? They certainly give a different feel but are still gorgeous and flavourful!

And last, our *personalised chocolate topper completes this beautiful cake.

*Extra cost
