Raspberry Cake/Berry Cake
July is the perfect month for berry picking in Canada. There are lots of local U-Picks that will allow you to come and pick berries at leisure and pay by the pound. I pick berries each year..... not because I like berries... I like the whole aspect of going with a group of friends and then picking to my heart's content while being devoured by bugs. Small price to pay for what's to come. By the time I get home I always realize I had picked too many for a household of two people! Then starts the search for berry recipes. This recipe is a simple raspberry cake that is moist, fluffy and buttery. It's perfect for afternoon tea or a little treat. The height of the cake is not too high but the taste is amazing. If you try it let me know what you think.BTW this recipe is versatile enough for any berry cake. Whether it's blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, etc. The same recipe can be made with frozen berries too. The baking time will be longer with frozen berries.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Butter a 9-inch round cake pan and dust with flour (to avoid the cake sticking to the pan).
- 2
Preheat oven to 400 Fahrenheit.
- 3
Whisk all the ingredients under the "flour mixture" in a large bowl and keep it aside. Make sure that all the ingredients are well incorporated.
- 4
Take another bowl and beat the sugar and butter with a cake mixer till creamy. Add the vanilla to the mixture and beat again. Add the egg and beat again.
- 5
Put the mixer on low speed and add the flour mixture and buttermilk alternatively, starting and ending with buttermilk. The low speed is to avoid the flour mixture forming a cloud of flour dust and covering you and the table around you.
- 6
The consistency of the cake batter will be creamy and thick. Now scrape out the batter into the pan and then top it with your favorite berries.
- 7
Bake for about 20-25 mins till golden brown and till an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Do not overbake as the cake will burn and be dry.
- 8
Let the cake cool for about 15 mins in the pan to avoid it from sticking to the pan when removed. Once cooled invert the cake to your favorite cake stand/display. The pics are from using a 9 inch spring foam pan (hence the cake was not inverted).

Enjoy with your family and friends!

White Layer Cake with a Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake center layer and a Raspberry Cream Frosting White Layer Cake with a Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake center layer and a Raspberry Cream Frosting
This is a combination layer cake with a moist tender crumb white cake with a creamy raspberry swirl cheesecake middle layer. It's finished off with a raspberry cream frosting for a really special cake. You must plan ahead though as the cheesecake layer is baked and frozen before the cake is made. The cheesecake can be done a few days in advance so it's waiting in the freezer for when your ready to make the cake. -
Microwave Cake Recipe 2 Microwave Cake Recipe 2
This recipe was inspired by a chef on this site named Mohamedou Maison, who asked me about my microwave chocolate cake recipe. She liked it but wanted to make it without cocoa, and it didn’t work out for her because the recipe is different with and without cocoa. This cake isn’t like regular cake, so I agreed to try a tweak to the recipe. If it worked, I’d share it; if not, we’d stick to the chocolate version. After adding and removing some ingredients, I was able to make it, and it turned out super soft and fluffy—just like cotton! I hope you enjoy it, and thank you! 😃👌🏻

Citrus Butter Cake Citrus Butter Cake
I went out to eat at a fancy schmancy restaurant and they served a butter cake. It was... probably the best thing they served. It was a little crispy, buttery. Can a cake be sexy? That’s what it was. I never heard of a butter cake, never tried one. I looked into it and this is my rendition.

Chocolate Layer Cake Chocolate Layer Cake
This chocolate cake is rich and dense. The buttermilk gives the crumb a velvety texture and topping the cake with chocolate covered almonds gives some crunch to the end of your piece. Using 8" cake pans allows for a thick cake pieces. I frosted with store bought frosting, but you could substitute your favorite homemade frosting too!
