Chocolate banana peanut butter cake 2 layers, for a birthday. - I made a cake similar to this a couple years prior for my friend's birthday and she kept asking me to make it again for her. I completely made up the recipe on the spot when I made it the first time so I had to do the same again for this one! I think it turned out great and she loved it.

Bird Cherry Flour cake for the monthly international dinner I do with my friends. This is a traditional cake made in Russia, it is made of Bird Cherry Flour which is technically gluten free, it took me a while to track down some of this flour. But boy this cake was so unique and tasty. It had a grittier texture than traditional cakes, also had a nice nutty flavor and wonderful color - all from the flour. No chocolate in this! I really want to make one of these again.

Almond chiffon cake for my best friend's engagement party. -They both got Hemlock trees engraved on their ring bands so I tried to recreate that on the top.
