![Zoë Bakes Cakes: Everything You Need to Know to Make Your Favorite Layers, Bundts, Loaves, and More [A Baking Book]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/A1VMHOjl2OL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
From the Publisher
The Perfect Cake
Whichever kind of cake you prefer, you'll likely find it in this collection-America's Test Kitchen's cake cookbook-and also learn how to make the most perfect-looking and -tasting version of it.
Carrot Layer Cake
Know Your Frosting
We like to have fun pairing different cake layers with the frostings and buttercreams in this book. With many variation recipes, the frosting flavor choices are ample:
- Vanilla or Chocolate Frosting
- Chocolate, Vanilla, Peanut Butter, Almond or Coconut Buttercream
- Chocolate Ganache
- Cream Cheese Frosting
- Seven-Minute Frosting
- And more!
From Sky-High Cakes to Cake Pops
We'll teach you the most basic & essential techniques that apply to most cakes.
This book covers cakes of all kinds, from single-layer fruit-filled cakes and individual-size desserts to those as many as 24 layers high. But while different types of cakes require different techniques and methods to achieve the desired outcome, all cake recipes have six key steps in common: measuring, preparing the pan, mixing, transferring the batter to the pan, baking, and cooling. Recipes feature photos that illustrate each of those processes.

|---|---|---|---|
Patriotic Poke CakeWe used a simple white cake as our base; it was tender and flavorful but also had enough structure to handle a syrup soaking. |
Smith Island CakeMany recipes for the sleek ganache-like frosting include milk, but we used heavy cream to give the frosting more body for supporting the cake's many layers. |
Olive Oil-Yogurt Bundt CakeBaking our cake in a Bundt pan made for a refined presentation, and we found that an easy-to-make lemon glaze (with a touch of tangy yogurt) further transformed this modest everyday cake into an elegant dessert. |
Ultimate Chocolate Cupcakes with Ganache FillingFor a final bit of decadence, we spooned ganache onto the cupcakes before baking, giving them a truffle-like center. |

I have never baked a real cake in my life, no lie, no exaggeration. I have only made box cakes with store bought frosting. One time I did make brownies from scratch, but as you will all attest, that is not a cake. Thanks to Governor Newsom's never-ending California pandemic shut down, me and the kids are starting new hobbies on a monthly basis. So far we've made tortillas from scratch, pasta with Kitchen Aid Mixer attachment (amazing), done every puzzle in town, attempted to learn to sew, we Stand Up Paddle board, watched every Disney movie and YouTube "life hack" video ever made, and have turned using a hot glue gun into an Olympic Sport. January's hobby is making real cakes and people.. thanks to this book we made REAL CAKES. Look at our photos and enough said. We.made.those.cakes. Review over! P.S. get this cookbook
