French cake

This Gâteau Breton (French Buttery Cake) is a cross between a cake and a biscuit. It is a delicious speciality from Brittany!

The marjolaine cake may not get quite as much attention as the Opera or Mille-Feuille, but ask any chef who is well-versed in classical French cuisine and it’s likely they’ll start going on and on about how delicious this layered dessert is. This recipe has three main parts: the cake, the buttercreams, and the ganache. It might seem intimidating at first but if you break it into parts, it is very manageable.

This Napoleon Cake recipe features layers of flaky pastry and luscious vanilla-flecked pastry cream. It's a beautiful classic Russian cake.

French chocolate cake is a rich and decadent, soft and fluffy, and super moist 5 ingredient chocolate cake made in one hour.

With tart apples baked into a buttery cake with just a hint of rum, this might be the best apple cake you’ll ever taste. It’s simple yet so satisfying—perfect for dessert, a cozy afternoon snack, or even breakfast (yes, it’s that good!).

My classic Gateau Basque is made with two layers of a buttery cookie-like crust and a silky smooth creamy vanilla pastry cream filling.
