Easy Cupcake Recipes & Cupcake Frosting, Best Cake Recipes

Looking for the best birthday cake for a loved one? Or do you just need a simple cupcake recipe to take to a potluck? With dozens of cake recipes, I've got you covered! From easy pound cake to luscious lemon cake, there's something for everyone!

ALMOST HOMEMADE CAKE

When you're in a hurry, it's nice to use a cake mix to speed things up a bit. But did you know that if you doctor it up a bit, most people won't even know you used a shortcut?

I've got a few poke cakes that start with a mix, as well as some layer cakes. This Chocolate Bundt Cake is the BEST, and it starts with a chocolate cake mix!

HOW TO MAKE A CAKE FROM SCRATCH

Nothing says "I love you" like a homemade cake, and you can't beat the flavor. Some of these cake recipes can be whipped up in the amount of time it takes your oven to preheat!

I've got recipes for bundt cakes, sheet cake, filled cakes, and even some mini cakes.

Don't miss my tip on how to make a cake moist!

HOMEMADE CUPCAKE RECIPES

Who doesn't love a little cake they can hold in their hand? Cupcakes are perfect for taking to picnics and serving crowds, and kids always  go crazy for them.

Chocolate cupcakes are always popular, but have you ever tried a carrot cake cupcake? They are heavenly, and definitely worth a try. My triple butterscotch cupcakes always have people coming back for more!

CUPCAKE AND CAKE FROSTING RECIPES

You just cannot beat the flavor of homemade frosting, and it can be whipped up lickity split with ingredients you probably already have! Even a cake made from a mix tastes better if you make your own frosting.

I've got recipes for german chocolate frosting, cream cheese frosting, lemon frosting, and even a strawberry lemonade frosting.

When I teach people how to make my simple chocolate frosting, they are always amazed at how easy and delicious it is. Nothing beats a tangy cream cheese frosting, (my favorite) and you will definitely be tempted to eat this peanut butter frosting by the spoonful. ;)
