I recently read a review of my blog that consisted of two words.
Calorie Heavy.
I was bit a taken aback by this short and decisive description. But, I decided to to not feel embarrassed or disappointed in the single minded perspective.
Know why? It’s SO true. I blog about baking. And 99% of the time, its cakes and cookies. That have lots of calories.
My blog is Calorie Heavy.
As am I.
Just sayin.
That being said, sharing this next calorie heavy cake with you is a great treat for me. Its probably the most fattening cake I have ever made.
Scratch that… I have made lots of cakes. Its just really yummy.
This quiet little unassuming cake packs a big punch.
It is a Oreo crumb covered, hot fudge dipped, chocolate covered cherry packed delicious white cake.
With a cherry on top.
Although I could not adore the oreo cookie crumb coating more… I have to tell you.
Its the amazingly sweet inside that I love.
Chocolate covered cherries.
Encased in a bed a sweet vanilla frosting.
Surrounded by a rich white cake.
Under a coat of hot fudge. Topped with oreo crumbs.
Now… I made this cake a week ago. But have been to scared to share it! I mean. Its a bit over the top.
I was going to offer a tutorial right away but it occurred to me… people probably dont want to make a cake that should really be served by the fork bite instead of by the plate.
Its just too much! My insane idea to make this cake must have been based on some weird pregnancy hormone.
I think.
Just for the record… next time I make this I am going to add more oreo. 😉

This is a simply STUNNING cake! I have officially fallen IN LOVE with this cake!
oh dear- that. is. BEAUTIFUL!
I think it’s gorgeous AND you’re making me really really want a piece of it RIGHT NOW!
I say it’s all about eating the delicious foods (like your dessets); they’re meant to be enjoyed! As long as I have someone to share it with, I won’t eat the whole thing! (Moderation is the key don’t you think!? Translation, eat some and then quickly give the rest to the neighbours before I eat it all 😉
WOW, this cake looks too good to be true! The photos are wonderful– thanks for sharing!
Absolutely scrumptious. “calorie heavy” …. really a beautiful compliment for your blog!
ceecee
I made the mistake of sharing this link on fb last night, and now people are wondering how to do it…so please share the tutorial if/when you can!!! Pretty, pretty, please, with a cherry on top?? 😉
Bring on the calories! That is truly the most beautiful, surprising, cake I have ever seen. And so many flavors – yum!
some say calorie heavy, i say calorie heaven. i’m never NOT interested in something you post, and this one’s no exception–the cherry on top is the clincher!
Wow! That is such an impressive cake. You don’t see something that perfect in the best of bakeries. I am not as good of a baker as I am a cook but you make me want to try. I would love the tutorial. Very glad you are staying true to you.
Everything you make is such a beautiful work of art, my friend.
