Flavor Profiles and Combinations
It really is possible to get the best of both worlds; a cake that looks stunning and surpasses all of your guests expectations.
The foraging of ingredients is what sets Patisserie Angelica apart; seeking out organic free trade Tahitian vanilla beans or the sweetest organic peach at our local Farmer’s Market. We have amazing relationships with so many local farmers. It has never been about finding the cheapest cream or cutting corners in our recipes. We have consistently sought to evolve in what we do. Maybe it is a new cinnamon I ran across from Sumatra, how would that heighten flavors in the spice cake or carrot cake?
All of our cakes are four layers; so you will have three fillings. It will give you the opportunity to create more complex and interesting interiors. Unless the cake is designed otherwise it will be approximately four inches high!
Our interiors are customized as well but here are some inspirations for interiors:
