This week’s Tuesday with Dorie (Dorie’s Everyday Cakes) recipe is Gemma Cakes. The recipe for these little cakes was created by Dorie for her oldest granddaughter’s first birthday, hence the name.
There are chunks of strawberry in the white chocolate, vanilla and rose flavoured batter, as Gemma loves strawberries.
The cakes are decorated by dipping them in melted white chocolate mixed with a little olive oil, and topped with sugar sprinkles. I used tiny little flowers that make the collection of cakes look like a garden, and unicorn sprinkles.
Here’s a peek inside:
These cakes are just so pretty - they epitomise what I love. They also taste good, and you can mix up the choice of berries that you use, or not use them at all.
