It’s a New Year, and a new book to bake from with the Cake Slice Bakers! Although last years book was fun to bake from, I’m always eager to bake from a new book. This years baking book is The European Cake Cookbook by Tatyana Nesteruk.
For my first bake I chose the Madeira Cake. Lemons are in season and I cannot pass up the opportunity to bake with them. They are my favorite fruit to bake with. I do need to warn you that the cake batter is sinfully delicious! I couldn’t have licked bowl and spatula any cleaner! I do believe we can blame the almond flour in the recipe for making this a delicious cake. Almond flour, butter, and zest, it’s a beautiful trio!
Each month The Cake Slice Bakers are offered a selection of cakes from the current book we are baking through. This year it is The European Cake Cookbook by Tatyana Nesteruk. We each choose one cake to bake, and then on the 20th - never before - we all post about our cake on our blogs. There are a few rules that we follow, but the most important ones are to have fun and enjoy baking & eating cakes!
