Berry Surprise Cake
For this week's Tuesdays with Dorie, Mary Ann of Meet Me in the Kitchen chose Berry Surprise Cake on pages 273-275 of Dorie's book, Baking: From My Home to Yours.
Now, before I tell you about the cake, let me tell you about Mary Ann. Mare (as she signs her posts), is amazing!!! She posts practically everyday and her family eats GOOD. Everything she makes is fun, healthy (besides our tasty treats, but I'm sure everything is in moderation at her house), and yummy. If you don't subscribe to her blog, you definitely should!
I picked up some raspberries grown in Mexico at Trader Joe's. It was all very yummy! I'm interested in seeing what other fruits the TWD bakers used! Be sure to check out the other Tuesdays with Dorie bakers! And look for the recipe on Mary Ann's blog.

this looks so nice. Even with the problems you encountered the finished result is perfect :)
I was having a little bit of a hard time imagining how this cake would "work" (looks-wise), but now I know...yours look wonderful. Today will be an amazing day...thanks for baking all those treats to celebrate!
Glad yours came out regardless of the trouble! Mine turned out pretty, but it fell too much and I wasn't happy with the flavor of the cake. Oh well, next week! :)
AH! Amazing pictures for a darn close to perfect cake! Everything look great, very, very nice job on that one!
Thanks for your kind words! Your cake looks perfect and so delicious. I have to go check out your Obama treats!
GORGEOUS! I'm wishing I was your next door neighbor, not that you'd share these with me, because I certainly wouldn't share, if I was you!
Looking at your cakes you would never know you had any problems, it looks fantastic!
Great call on the simple syrup. When I was eating mine I really wished that I had gone that route. They look beautiful, as usual!
WOW!! This looks absolutely picture perfect !! Great job on the cake and the decorating! I bet it turned out super delicious!
I love the visual of your cake. To be honest, I wasn't impressed by the cake flavor of this recipe. I've had better. :)
gorgeous cake! Love the raspberries
your cake looks amazing!
Your minis are adorable. Great job and they look so yummy!!!
Glad you liked yours, mine had very little flavor. Your pictures are very nice.
gorgeous. i would have never known you had the egg problem if you hadn't mentioned it!
Wow - all the great things you made leading up to the cake look spectacular - I love the celebration cupcakes, too!
your cake looks beautiful!
great job!
I love the raspberries tumbling out of your cake! Looks fabulous!
Oh, wow. I wish I had some raspberries like yours--they look great. I definitely want to try this again when berries are more available around here.
Sinkage or not, your cake looks great. That's what the filling/topping are for, right?
I think your cakes look GREAT!!! The divas kicked my butt.
you dealt with the "sinkhole" situation well--they are so cute!
Now this looks down right SEXY! You are on a roll!!!! Keep the amazing food coming and fabulous photos..
Ciao ! Your cakes are so beautiful ! And I love all the American desserts too !
Oh my, you are making me sad I didn't get to this recipe. (Note to self, must try this.)
Your pictures are fantastic... they belong in a magazine.
Your little cake turned out too cute! I had more problems with the cake assembly versus the cake itself, but definitely agree that this was quite delish. Nice idea to freeze the 6" --- you can break that baby out when berries come in season (which isn't soon enough)
These look wonderful. No one would even know about the sinkhole. Mine fell too. I don't know how to handle divas, what can I say
Great little mini, and you have another one in the freezer! Good work.

That first shot of the mini cake is so yummy. There is something so perfect about fresh berries on fluffy white cream
