# 7 Brilliant Home\-Baked Cakes ...

Don’t we all love a home-made cake! Imagine that gorgeous smell wafting through your house … Here are some of my [favorite cakes](https://allwomenstalk.com/chocolate-decadence-cake-receipt-ingredients-and-directions/), with recipes for you to try (all in UK quantities, so anyone else will have to ‘translate’!)

## 1. [Carrot Cake](http://www.deliaonline.com?ref=allwomenstalk.com)

![Carrot Cake](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/05/7-brilliant-home-baked-cakes/carrot-cake_brilliant-home-baked-cakes_230x230.jpg)

There are lots of variations on this theme, some with cream cheese icing and some without. My own preference is to leave off the icing, but I’ve found a recipe with it, so you can please yourself.

## 2. [Banana Cake](https://www.thetimes.co.uk/)

My mum has a great recipe for banana bread. I could eat huge wedges of this fantastic cake. It’s not too sweet, but very satisfying.

## 3. _Ginger Cake_

A classic cake, and for a very good reason – it’s just so tasty. I once tried an egg-less recipe and it worked beautifully. So here’s a recipe for vegans or people with allergies.

## 4. [Chocolate Fudge Cake](https://www.goodto.com/recipes/mary-berry-s-chocolate-fudge-cake)

![Chocolate Fudge Cake](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/05/7-brilliant-home-baked-cakes/chocolate-fudge-cake_brilliant-home-baked-cakes_331x220.jpg)

[Choco heaven](https://allwomenstalk.com/50-chocolate-desserts/)! Indulgent, calorific and divine. Dive in!

## 5. [Blueberry Muffins](https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/blueberrymuffins_67846)

I just can’t decide whether I prefer these or double choc chip, but since I’ve already included a [chocolate recipe](https://allwomenstalk.com/ingredients-and-directions-of-chocolate-berried-treasure-bars-receipt/), here is the blueberry version.

## 6. [Grand Marnier Cheesecake](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/user/219606/recipe/orange-chocolate-cheesecake)

![Grand Marnier Cheesecake](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/05/7-brilliant-home-baked-cakes/grand-marnier-cheesecake_brilliant-home-baked-cakes_440x400.jpg)

This is the favorite of a friend of mine, and no wonder. Look at the picture of this [glorious cheesecake](https://allwomenstalk.com/most-delicious-cheesecake-recipes/) and drool.

## 7. _Tiffin._

You don’t even need to bake this cake! How easy can it be. I leave out the raisins, horrible things.

Are you inspired to get baking? What are your favorite cakes?
