Banana Salted Caramel Cake

It is my grandparents birthdays this week and since I am down at Lake Rotoiti for the weekend, I decided to make a birthday cake for them. It is a banana cake with salted caramel and cream cheese frosting filling with a brown sugar swiss meringue buttercream.

So Happy Birthday Nana and Pop (Pasty and Buzz)!

Raspberry White Chocolate Cupcakes

These are a moist vanilla cake with white chocolate ganache filling and a raspberry swiss meringue buttercream. New Zealand white chocolate is superb and has an excellent mouth feel compared to American white chocolate, making it a must do in the cupcake scene. 

Anzac Cupcakes

Well its that time of the year again and exams are looming in the near future. So what does one do when they have jammed their head with as much information as possible for that period of time? Bake of course! Aka the perfect study break.

So I turned to my little notebook I keep by my bed for the crazy flavour combinations I come up with at 3 am to find one that would suffice. I came across some real Kiwiana flavours like lamington, banoffee, or Anzac so after about 5 minutes of strict deliberation, I decided to make the Anzac cupcakes.

Any other flavour suggestions for the future? :)

They are a golden syrup cake with coconut and golden syrup caramel filling, golden syrup frosting and topped with toasted coconut and an Anzac biscuit.
