Red Wine Chocolate Cake with Raspberry Buttercream Icing; this is the stuff that my foodie dreams are made of. The fluffiness of the pink icing, the inspiring moment of adding sweet red wine to the batter and the decadence of a dark chocolate cake, come together to create a one of a kind dessert that you won’t want to miss.
Another thing you’re definitely not going to want to miss is this book, Simply Beautiful Homemade Cakes. My friend Lindsay blogs over at Life, Love and Sugar and she is truly a cake baking genius.
When I’m in the kitchen, I’m usually cooking rather than baking so when I was given the opportunity to review this beautiful cookbook, I was thrilled. Lindsay’s cakes are always completely stunning and look delicious (and now I can attest to the fact that they ARE delicious).
Of course this book is full of beautiful cakes like Maple Streusel Pumpkin Cake but there are also loads of other lovely non-cake desserts like Caramel Apple Cheesecake and Cannoli Cupcakes!
In addition (and I think this was my favorite part) there are TONS of step-by-step tutorials including photographs for everything from perfect buttercream frosting to piping and coloring. It’s the perfect book for someone like me who needs a little guidance to take a cake from average to amazing.

The next time you have had a rough day or are in need of a one of a kind cake that is as yummy as it is pretty, let me recommend this recipe. It comes from the book Simply Beautiful Homemade Cakes (you can grab your copy here) and it truly is a simply beautiful cake!
I have to say, combining a homemade dark chocolate cake with red wine is nothing short of brilliant. The flavor is incredible and the cake itself is gorgeous. It will catch and hold your attention, practically beckoning you to taste the raspberry buttercream frosting! This is one of those recipes I will be baking time and time again, as the cake is true decadence.
