Who bakes their own birthday cake? Well, I do. And deciding on a cake was no easy task. I used to be a Devils Food Cake and Vanilla Frosting kind of gal but that's changed as I've gotten old*er. Should it be German Chocolate? Coconut Cream Cheese? Banana? Raspberry Filled? Ahh, the choices were too much.

So what do you choose when you can't decide? Chocolate, of course. I finally went with a recipe for a Double Chocolate Layer Cake because Orangette has never let me down. But I'm still curious about these recipes for Devil's Food Cake and Beatty's Chocolate Cake. I'd better hurry up before Thanksgiving rolls around.
