Cakes

Cakes.  They come in all different shapes and sizes.  All different tastes.  Everyone has a favorite, no doubt.  A cake can be a casual dessert or snack, or it can be dressed up for the most formal occasions.  Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of great mixes out there that can be very economical.  But sometimes, I just like to make cakes from scratch.  I like seeing it all come together.  And I can avoid some preservatives and other things I can't pronunce this way.  Some of these recipes are sentimental to me; others I have modified to suit my own personal tastes.  Unless otherwise indicated, these recipes can be used to make cupcakes, too, just remember to adjust your baking time accordingly.   Carrot Cake Pound Cake
