Additionally, you’ll find three cake recipes with delicate fruity flavors. The first one is a chocolate cake with banana that adds moisture, the second is a Caribbean cake with rum notes and apricot pieces inside, and the last one combines blueberries with lemon, which is one of my favorites.

The patience that the chef explains with
I tried all the cake recipes but it was a bit difficult to make the beautiful decorations. I also reduced the amount of sugar in all the recipes because I found it too sweet. My favorite cake was the blueberry and the dried peaches with rum. Thank you, chef! 😊
