Fresh Cherry Cake

Recipe Description

This Fresh Cherry Cake is a simple and beautiful vanilla oven baked cake with fresh cherries and cherry juices drizzled on top. I use a typical vanilla cake base which you can add some extra vanilla extract to, for a hint of more flavor.

Design your fresh cherries with your own patterns and have fun decorating with drizzles of cherry juices too. Easy, Fun and Beautiful.
