Christmas is all about cookies, right? Yes, but. But Christmas is about food in general, right? There’s certainly no feast without a food coma and now celebration without cake. See? Logic.

3 cake recipes that are perfect for Christmas | LOOK WHAT I MADE ...

With this undeniable logic I present you 3 cakes that are perfect for your Christmas table. May it be for coffee and cake or as a dessert after the main course – these cake recipes will highlight the special day and can be made in advance (so you don’t have to spend all day in the kitchen).

truffel_cake_yellow

First comes the signature cake from my dad (my father is an avid cook and his specialty are beautiful and complex cakes). This is a gluten-free chocolate cake and as a friend said: this is so suspiciously light that you could easily eat 2 – 3 pieces.

Second one is the chocolate peanut butter cake that is easier to make than it looks and is not that sweet. It looks great on every festive table setting.

black_forest_cake_black_forest

Third but not least is the classic Black Forest Cake that just got a perfect decoration make-over to fit the theme: black forest. Get it?! It looks like a forest in winter and therefore is the go-to recipe to get all those ooooohs and aaaaaahs from your guests.

Do you make cakes for Christmas? Any dessert planned?

Now. Carry on!
