Bejeweled Spice Cake

The holy trinity of baking spices: ginger, cassia-cinnamon and allspice combine in this traditional medieval spice blend called Poudre Douce. It makes this upside-down fruit cake an essential for the winter holidays -- and it's a table-top stunner, too! We made a festive selection of dried fruits over the classic pineapple to allow the spices to shine through. Less sweet than those pineapple upside-down cakes of our childhoods, we like this cake at brunch as well as for dessert!

Chocolate Chile Honey Cake

This Chile Honey Cake is a mouth watering example of the time-tested flavor combination of chile and chocolate. By infusing habanero chile flakes into honey, we were able to mellow the heat and reveal its subtle fruity flavor for an irresistible cake. Want delicious chile flavor, but with less spicy heat? Try using Urfa Biber instead - it pairs beautifully with chocolate.The fudgy and fiery creaminess of the ganache frosting, the moist chocolate cake, and the tang of the marmalade combine together to make one delicious cake. While it's perfect for a Halloween party, we've made this cake for birthdays, holiday gatherings, or just when we wanted a thick slice of a really good chocolate cake.
