One week from my birthday and I can hint at my gf what kind of cake I want. What is your favorite cake /ck/? Carrot cake master race here. Tastes amazing. If it wasn't carrot cake I would sit around eating tres leches and flan all day.

Those are among my favourites without a doubt. I also love chiffon cakes, like banana, orange or pandan, or even plain but with fruit and whipped cream.

the only good thing about carvel is they add a ton of that cookie brownie center, more so than my local bakery. other than that, my local bakery wins

fuck my local bakery is good. they have a fried donut thats really just a cinnamon roll with icing. its so bad for you, but so good.

The ice cream is good in carvel cakes but the frosting is lacking.

You have exquisite taste. That's my favorite.

Somewhat on topic: I wish there were more varieties of "vegetable" cake. I have heard that zucchini cakes can be very good, but more variations would be nice to try. I don't really bake at home so I only (extraordinarily rarely) go to bakeries for pastries and it is sad that there is so little variation.

Carrot cakes are the GOAT, beyond any shadow of a doubt.

I had something that tasted a lot like a carrot cake the other day. It was a sweet potato-maple cake with walnuts and raisins, topped with cinnamon-cream cheese icing. Fucking god-tier

I just baked a lemon drizzle cake. Swear to god the skewer came out clean before I took it out the oven, but I cut into it this morning, and the middle is liquid. Is it not cooked? Should I put it in the microwave? Did I fuck up the drizzle? Pls halp.

Does Carrot cake have actual carrots in it or is it like cheesecake?

Do this. It's good.

Well, what do you mean the middle is liquid? It's completely liquid instead of cake? How did you make the drizzle? When did you add the drizzle? You need to provide more information if you want help.
