Lots to show you today, from my recent deliveries to The Coffee Tree. This is a Chocolate & Salted Caramel Cake....
Dark, soft chocolate cake with milk chocolate whipped frosting in the middle & on top...drizzled with sea salted caramel....it's one of those cakes that I have to get out of the house quickly....as I'm in danger of burying my face in it otherwise!
I think it's the smooth silkiness of the frosting, the deep chocolate flavour and the crunch of the salt flakes with the ultra sweet caramel....mmmmmmm!
Toasted Coconut Cake....another beautifully fragranced offering to the Gateau Gods!
We don't get the lovely moist flaked coconut that's available in the US & Australia, so have to make do with sort of shavings that I toast myself...
Lemon Passionfruit Muffins went down a treat....all gone in 2 hours!
The actual muffins were just very lemony quite plain...with a very zingy fruity fresh passionfruit glaze which I put on while they were still warm...
And here are two trays of my famous Cranberry Carmelita Bars. Difficult to show you because I couldn't cut into them to photograph...but imagine an oaty, buttery, crunchy top & bottom with dried cranberries, chocolate chips & caramel sauce in the middle...again, very popular (I make variations on them too...one with walnuts replacing the cranberries, which I prefer...)
So that's a little selection. There will be lots of egg-themed delights this week of course....so watch this space!
Happy Monday xo

Oh, yum! That chocolate and salted caramel cake looks delicious. The muffins look and sound mouthwatering. Love a lemony taste and passionfruit too!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a peaceful Easter break after your busy week.
I agree! The chocolate & salted caramel cake looks scrumptious. Wish the Coffee Tree was near me, so I could buy a slice!! Everything looks beautiful, as always. Enjoy the rest of your day! xo
ReplyDeleteOhh you're killing me here. I'm moaning as I look at all this. It's embarrassing! How delicious. Think your shaved coconut way nicer than our shredded. Very hungry! Want treats! Moving to England tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteDon't have much time to say it as I am going to bed now, but this looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteMy parents are here, my mum worship Mozart like you do, or almost. I don't think it is possible, but I wish I could make them visit your bakery.
I just have to try drizzling caramel like that sometime--I've never done it and it looks so mouth-watering!! My oldest daughter just LOVES caramel and she has a b'day coming up on May 4---maybe I'll try it for that! I think it's odd that you cannot find the coconut that is moist over there...I'm happy to send some if you'd like! (if they don't try and confiscate it)....everything is so beautiful Rachel...like you!
