I had the pleasure of meeting Amanda from I Am Baker in Minneapolis at a King Arthur Flour #BakeforGood event just a few months ago. Amanda is as sweet and funny in person as she is on her blog and I have to say, she is the most delightful person you’ll ever meet.

Something, I am sure, that stems from her upbringing in Fargo, North Dakota and her faith in God.

Prior to meeting Amanda, I was scheduled to receive her new cookbook, Surprise-Inside Cakes and review it for an upcoming post for The Kitchn. And if you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen sneak peeks of the surprise-inside cakes I made!

We’ve all heard of this book and you may even have a copy in hand already. For those who have not made the leap to purchase this gem of a cookbook, I say, ” What are you waiting for?”

As I mention in my review, these cakes are something special. If you’re looking for that special, homemade, show-stopper of a cake that says “I care and I love you”, this book is it and these surprise-inside cakes are it.

So, click here to read my detailed review on Surprise-Inside Cakes and see what my cakes looked like on the inside!

I hope you enjoy!
