So I decided to place the cake ring on its side and bake sections that way.Īfter many, many attempts, I finally had a few good sections of lattice that I could place around the cake. I contemplated baking a couple of long lattice pieces along the outside of a cake ring placed onto a sheet pan, but I worried that the lattice would lose its shape as it baked and not look so pretty. It’s not the easiest thing to make and I had to MacGyver a contraption that would allow me to bake it on its side. If you plan to attempt the woven pie crust lattice, give yourself a LOT of time (and patience). Because every good pie-inspired cake deserves a pie crust crown! Then there’s the woven lattice that wraps around the base of the cake and the pie crust braid that encircles the top like a crown. I added two discs of baked pie dough in between the cake layers and also added baked pie crust cut-outs as decoration. With this Apple Pie Cake, I wanted to make sure there was some element of pie crust in there, since – let’s be honest – it’s not really apple pie without it. So this month I’ve tackled the Apple Pie Cake! If you’ve been following along with my posts for The Cake Blog, you know I’ve been having a lot of fun coming up with creative ways to turn desserts into layer cakes. As such, I’m kicking off the not-quite-fall season with today’s cake. Nothing quite screams coziness like the colors of autumn, crisp air, and of course, fall baking. If I’m away on vacation and somewhere tropical, I like it to be sunny and hot, but otherwise I’ll take my overcast days and mild temps thankyouverymuch. I seriously cannot wait! My husband thinks I’m crazy because I actually don’t like summer. Anyone else love fall as much as I do? It’s the best season ever.
