This three-tier cake looks like it is dripping with chocolate ganache. Really, what could be better than that? Read More

Featured on the pages of Martha Stewart Weddings, I don’t figure this would be the grandest wish of your run-o’-the-mill groom.  But if you’re looking for a winter-time showstopper with some panache, THIS is your cake.  Kumquats, which look like adorably Read More
