This tender cake is topped and sandwiched between layers of cream cheese frosting, which is creamy but provides a hint of acidity to balance the cake. Then you could top the cake in any way that you like. You could add chopped nuts or edible glitter if you fancy a bit of sparkle.
For the ultimate luxurious and heavenly cake, you may wish to consider having this as your wedding cake. A dense but rich and chocolaty cake is smothered in a caramel cream cheese frosting. However, if that wasn’t enough, this cake is then also topped with more caramel.
There is a lot to enjoy with cake, and you can guarantee that there won’t be any leftovers. You don’t have to add the caramel to the top, but it helps to cut through the dense cake and provides the cake with additional moisture.
If you have a sweet tooth then you will adore this cake. The cream cheese frosting is what helps this cake to be salted caramel since it provides the sharpness that the cake needs. Otherwise, it would be far too sweet.
Orange is a great flavor to have as the main star of your wedding cake. The citrus flavor provides sweetness and sharpness which makes this cake so delicious. This is quite a sophisticated cake, which is simple but not lacking in flavor.
A spoonful of yogurt on top helps to elevate the cake. This could be used on top of the cake as a finishing touch.
