| I really like the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake at Cheesecake Factory. |
| Nothing says love like red velvet cake in Feb |
|
I made this a few weeks ago and it was really good:

It's time. Time to make the Restaurant Eve's Cake.

If you like coconut |
I think that is Beatty’s chocolate cake: https://barefootcontessa.com/recipes/beattys-chocolate-cake. It is fabulous. |

DP. Was curious as to what this cake looked like based on the recipe, so pulled it up. It's not what I would make for a random weekend cake (I'll always go either chocolate forward, fruit forward, or spice/carrot cake) but I bet my DD would LOVE this for her birthday!

| Something with fancy decorations. Maybe even cake pops. |
Thank you for sharing the photo! It has brightened my afternoon. It makes a ton of frosting so prepare yourself. |

For random weekend baking, I prefer a loaf cake or simple bundt - for whatever reason it lends itself to snacking better. I love lemon poppyseed, plain and chocolate chip pound cakes, and my latest interest has been olive oil cakes with citrus - I love the Simple Cakes cookbook!
However, for an occasion, that Restaurant Eve cake looks fantastic, as does Ina’s coconut came. |
| Not a typical cake, but my pick would be warm gingerbread with butter and jam |
