Lovely photographs and of course from scratch recipes that look wonderful, enticing, I know would be a pleasure to bake. Country Living always does a beautiful job with their recipes, and you can confidently be assured that it will taste as wonderful as it looks.
A wide variety of cakes, some very traditional recipes and some unusual ones too. From Chocolates, to nuts, to fruits; ganache, cream cheese frostings, all of them looked lovely!
