  • The perfect non-spooky Halloween cake inspired by the most iconic Halloween treat: candy corn 💛 🧡 🥳 made with the prettiest sugar sprinkles I found at @joann_stores 🙌🏽 I colored the inside of this cake with a candy corn color scheme (peep my Story to see!), then rolled it in sugar sprinkles to give it some extra amazing texture 😍✨it’s SO easy to create and makes the ideal Halloween party centerpiece 🎃 🎉 see the full tutorial + video at the link in my bio #handmadewithjoann #joannpartner
  • Spent last weekend at the happiest place on earth with my two BFFs 👯‍♀️✨we ate all the pumpkin spice beignets, dole whip, and s’mores churros 🙌🏽We walked 14 miles in one day and our adrenaline made it feel like nothing 😳🥳 My voice got scratchy from screaming on roller coasters 😜🎢 it was amazing!! Can’t wait to go back and do it all over again next month (when they have their Christmas decorations up!🎄)
  • This Witch Cauldron Cake I created for @thecakeblog is the perfect balance of cute and spooky 🖤👀☠️ all it takes is some pitch black buttercream, oozing green (white chocolate) ganache, creepy Halloween candy, and a generous heap of cotton candy to make it look like the cauldron is steaming 💚🧙🏻‍♀️I’ve got the full tutorial at the link in my bio if you’re in need of a great (easy!) Halloween party showstopper 👻🎉 click it!
  • Happy October, people! I’ve been amazed at how many of you have tried and loved this Vanilla Chai Cake recipe already 😱🙌🏽 makes my day every time! The flavor for this beauty comes from a homemade chai spice mix (cinnamon, allspice, ginger, cardamom, cloves) + steeping a chai tea bag in the whole milk before adding it at the end ☕️✨I topped it with some crushed @traderjoes Speculoos cookies to take it a step beyond 🙌🏽 it’s the perfect cake for this cozy Fall weather 🍂🍁 click the link in my bio for the full recipe + decorating tips!
  • Another favorite tea cake recipe: this matcha layer cake with raspberry buttercream filling + a vanilla-matcha buttercream ombré finish 🍵 🙌🏽 made for my friends at @teabar last year with their amazing organic Culinary Matcha (the best ever)✨this cake is so tasty, aromatic, and perfect for any green tea lover 💕 I love the color and flavor of this matcha powder so much that I mixed some of it into melted white chocolate to make those geometric shapes on top! 🍵🥳 click the link in my bio for the full recipe (even includes a tutorial for the white chocolate geometric shapes) 👏🏽
  • I’ve been wanting to make a Chai Cake recipe for what seems like forever and I finally did it, y’all 🙌🏽😍 layers of fluffy, moist Vanilla Chai Cake that’s infused with chai tea + spiced with a homemade Chai Spice Mix (cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, allspice) ✨☕️ I added some of the Chai Spice Mix to the vanilla buttercream and oh my!👏🏽 it tastes like an Autumnal dreamscape and I’m obsessed with the little flecks of spices in the buttercream (zoom to see 😍). Click the link in my bio for the full recipe + decorating tips 🍁🍂✨and PS that cute mug in the background was made by my friend @margaretandbeau who just opened up the cutest ceramics/art shop in Portland (@cupboardgoods)! If you’re local, go have a look 😍
