Chocolate box

If you have had a lifelong love affair with cakes, 'Enlightened Cakes' is for you. It contains a cake for every occasion. Triple-Tiered Chocolate Fudge Cake and Dulce de Leche Layer Cake are wonderful and just right for the perfect birthday. For a fuss-free cake for afternoon coffee with friends, Cardamom-Scented Citrus Loaf or One-Bowl Chocolate Buttermilk Cake will do the trick (and can be mixed, assembled and in the oven in less than ten minutes). More than a dozen choices are included for the winter holidays, and autumn refreshments abound too, including the spicy and oh-so-moist Pumpkin Cranberry Cake (only 6 grams of fat per serving). For summer occasions try Fresh Blackberry Shortcakes with Brown Sugar Biscuits or Peaches and Cream Cupcakes, both unforgettable confections for a Fourth of July gathering.
