Maple-Walnut Cake

This moist cake gets its maple-walnut flavor from being saturated with syrupy walnuts and frosted with a double-maple frosting. Give it an over-the-top finish by decorating the borders with more syrup-soaked walnuts.

Black-and-White Mocha Cake

Alternating layers of chocolate and vanilla cake with rich mocha frosting in between make for a stunning showstopper of a dessert.
