0:08
my recipe links are all in the video
0:10
description starting with my latest
0:12
obsession chocolate with Nutella these
0:14
are my perfect chocolate cake layers
0:16
which are tender trying to avoid the
0:18
word moist which some people hate so
0:19
much for the filling stirring Nutella
0:22
into my 4-minute buttercream adds that
0:23
irresistible chocolate hazelnut flavor
0:25
and also gives the buttercream the
0:27
perfect consistency to spread easily
0:29
over the cake serve this cake just like
0:31
this or add a drizzle of Nutella on top
0:34
and decorate with hazelnut chocolates
0:36
like these Ferrero Rocher balls if you
0:38
press them onto the cake while the
0:39
buttercream is still soft and sticky
0:41
they'll attach easily the next two cake
0:44
flavor combinations are fruity first
0:46
lemon and raspberry lemon zest is grated
0:48
into the cake batter and fresh
0:50
raspberries are baked into the layers
0:52
lemon curd is stirred into buttercream
0:54
and also used as a filling between the
0:56
cake layers the lemon curd on its own
0:58
adds a bold lemon taste that's tart
1:01
while the lemon buttercream is sweet and
1:03
rich and creamy raspberries are a simple
1:05
and delicious decoration that hints at
1:07
what's inside the cake and makes it feel
1:09
almost healthy moving on to a cocktail
1:11
inspired cake flavor pina colada the
1:13
cake layers in this are baked with
1:15
coconut milk which adds creaminess and a
1:17
subtle coconut flavor the frosting is
1:19
pineapple buttercream using freeze-dried
1:21
pineapple that's blended into a powder
1:23
to add all the pineapple flavor without
1:25
making it watery in between the layers
1:27
is the same pineapple buttercream but
1:29
with a spoonful of cream cheese mixed in
1:31
to cut the sweetness and let the
1:32
tropical flavors of this cake really
1:34
shine sprinkling some shredded coconut
1:36
around the bottom of the cake and adding
1:38
some dried pineapple slices on top adds
1:40
a simple but gorgeous decoration as you
1:43
bite into this you'll almost be able to
1:44
feel the seab breeze around you now my
1:47
favorite this decadent cake flavor
1:49
combination with chocolate chip cookie
1:51
dough that's made with baked flour and
1:52
no eggs so it's safe to eat raw shape it
1:55
into discs the same width as your cake
1:57
layers and save some to roll into
1:59
chocolate chip cookie dough balls for
2:01
decoration later what's even more
2:03
delicious than cookie dough brown sugar
2:05
frosting and this is an frosting which
2:07
is made by cooking milk and flour and
2:09
then mixing it with vanilla butter and
2:11
brown sugar creating a frosting that's
2:13
rich and not super sweet with that
2:15
distinctive brown sugar flavor add
2:17
buttery vanilla cake layers for richness
2:20
without distracting from the flavors of
2:21
the cake and decorate with cookie dough
2:23
balls irresistible this next flavor
2:26
combination is a classic chocolate with
2:28
peanut butter rich not too sweet
2:30
chocolate cake is layered with chocolate
2:32
buttercream and these pair so well with
2:34
creamy peanut butter buttercream spread
2:36
generously around the outside of the
2:38
cake use the leftover chocolate and
2:40
peanut butter buttercream to pipe
2:41
two-tone swirls around the top of the
2:43
cake and to add even more chocolate
2:45
peanut buttery goodness you can decorate
2:47
these with peanut butter cups or make
2:49
your own by spreading melted chocolate
2:51
into mini cupcake wrappers and spooning
2:53
in peanut butter mixed with just a touch
2:55
of icing sugar or powdered sugar the
2:57
crunch of the chocolate when you bite
2:59
into these is so satisfying strawberry
3:02
is the next cake flavor and here fresh
3:04
or frozen strawberries are combined with
3:06
freeze-dried strawberries in the cake
3:08
batter for maximum strawberry flavor and
3:10
a beautiful pink color blending
3:12
freeze-dried strawberries makes a powder
3:14
which you can stir into buttercream to
3:16
create a really intense strawberry
3:18
flavor that doesn't make the buttercream
3:20
runny in the way that blended fresh
3:22
strawberries do another benefit of
3:24
freeze-dried strawberries is that they
3:25
don't get gooey the way fresh sliced
3:27
strawberries do so they're a great way
3:29
to decorate this cake maybe the easiest
3:32
way to incorporate fruit into a cake is
3:34
to use jam which you could make yourself
3:36
or you can buy in lots of flavors spread
3:39
the jam between buttery vanilla cake
3:41
layers using creamy buttercream to make
3:43
a dam or wall around each cake layer to
3:45
hold the jam in place so that the cake
3:47
layers above don't push it out the sides
3:49
of the cake you can use more buttercream
3:51
to cover the sides of the cake or leave
3:53
the cake naked and just pipe some
3:55
dollops of buttercream on top this cake
3:57
is so simple to make and you can even
3:59
travel with it and the link for that
4:01
tutorial is in the top of the screen and
4:02
in the video description if you're
4:04
looking for something not too sweet
4:06
maybe for a brunch or a coffee date
4:09
you'll love this banana cream cheese
4:11
layer cake from the name you'll guess
4:12
the cake flavor combinations moist sweet
4:15
banana cake with rich and tangy cream
4:18
cheese buttercream filling and frosting
4:20
like all of my other cakes this tastes
4:22
best at room temperature so if you keep
4:24
it in the fridge take it out about 2
4:26
hours before serving it so that the cake
4:28
and buttercream warm up and soften and
4:30
that's when they'll taste their best
4:32
this next one is such a crowd-pleaser
4:34
oreo chocolate cake it starts with
4:36
chocolate cake layers made with cocoa
4:38
powder for that deep chocolate flavor
4:40
just like the cookie part of an Oreo for
4:42
the filling and frosting crushed Oreos
4:44
are stirred into creamy buttercream to
4:45
make cookies and cream this speckled
4:47
buttercream looks so distinctive
4:49
decorate the cake with Oreos positioned
4:51
all around the top and pipe swirls of
4:53
Oreo buttercream between them yum pro
4:56
tip if you find that the Oreo cookies
4:58
are clogging your piping tip use a knife
5:00
to pry the prongs open so that they can
5:02
squeeze through for neater piping if you
5:04
can't choose between vanilla and
5:06
chocolate choose both this marble cake
5:08
uses just one cake batter divided in
5:10
half and adding a cocoa powder mixture
5:12
to the chocolate half and buttermilk to
5:15
the vanilla half to marble the vanilla
5:17
and chocolate batters together use an
5:19
ice cream scoop or just a spoon to
5:21
alternate the flavors in the cake pans
5:23
and then drag a toothpick back and forth
5:25
to marble them these look so pretty even
5:27
before seeing what they look like on the
5:29
inside i use vanilla buttercream between
5:31
the layers and then chocolate on the
5:33
outside adding a band of vanilla around
5:35
the bottom and sort of swishing it
5:37
upwards into the chocolate the slices
5:39
look gorgeous and they taste even better
