Thanks to our compilation, there’s no need to pick up boring packaged sweets at the grocery store or even swing by the fancy bakery — just whip up one of the following easy-to-make, perfectly round creations yourself!
1. Brazilian Carrot Cake
Carrots are more versatile than most people realize. They taste delicious by themselves or as a side dish sautéed in butter. If you combine it with apple, it can be a very refreshing salad or an incredibly delicious carrot cake. For the latter, the recipe is surprisingly simple. The best part about it might be the thick layer of chocolate glaze on top. Get the full recipe here.

You need to take a bit of care with the preparation, but it’ll be worth it when your guests take their first slice and discover what awaits them. And once you’ve tried it this way, why not experiment with some other fillings? The possibilities are endless! Get the full recipe here.
