Sangria Cake
Predominantly, birthday cakes tend to be a chocolate/vanilla, or both sort of an affair. People tend to sit on one side of that fence, though a few of us straddle it happily. When it comes to flavors, I for one, am all for duplicity, or even triplicity. Why stop at two when you can melodiously have three? Last year, when told a friend of mine was having a birthday, I wanted to tailor the cake specifically to what I knew about her. So when my sister in-law’s birthday rolled around, I compiled a list of applicable themes, but one stuck out. Sangria cake. It’s a tasty beverage, it’s got fruit, why the heck not?

Well, for one thing, the final product looks akin to something you’d find in the deepest, darkest depths of the ocean; a sleeping leviathan laying in wait for an errant diver to come within range. Though in this case, you devour it, before it devours you.

Steel yourself for this one, and your bravery will be rewarded. If people are deterred, you’ll simply have more for yourself. Suckers.
