I WANT CAKE!


Party-Perfect Bundt Cakes to Feed a Rowdy Crowd


Dessert to Serve with a Side of Aspirin


If cupcakes are the baking world’s cutesy goody two-shoes, then we’ve found the cool kid who cut PE to hang out in the parking lot.

It’s a Bundt cake from Immaculate Confections. And it sure smells like it has been drinking.

Vanilla Grand Marnier, dark chocolate Kahlúa, butter rum — take your pick from baker Julie Peres’s lip-smacking selection of big, fat baked-to-order treats.

Drawing on recipes from her family archive, Peres amps up each cake with at least one cup of top-shelf booze (divided between the cake and glaze). Will you catch a buzz from the bittersweet chocolate bourbon or dark chocolate Chambord? More like a sugar high.
Most of the alcohol burns off during baking, though the process leaves the cake especially rich, flavorful, and primed to pull an all-nighter from L.A. to destinations across the 48 states. It will still be fresh when you get out of detention.
