Even though the holiday season has been over for months, we still have room for dessert. Especially when it comes in the form of Tiffany Howard’s cakes.

The mastermind behind the successful food blog Oh Honey Bakes, Howard has gained online stardom thanks to her seasonal recipes of (mostly) gluten-free cakes. Because who said you can’t have your cake and eat it too?

“I transitioned to a gluten-free diet about a year ago, and while I still love over-the-top cakes, I want to create recipes for every day as well as for special occasions,” relayed Howard in an interview with le buzz.

Some of her recent recipes include dark chocolate pound cake with dark chocolate ganache and pumpkin cake with gingersnap toffee, cream cheese buttercream filling, and cinnamon Swiss merengue (is your mouth watering yet?).

Raised in Virginia, at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Howard is currently based outside of Seattle, where she works from her tiny farm.

“I fell in love with baking about ten years ago,” she shared in the interview. “I started baking insane cakes after I had my son, and friends started asking for the recipes.”

According to Howard, it was when the family moved to Seattle (and after some encouragement from a friend), that she started posting her cake recipes, sharing them with a larger audience. “I really had no expectations, it was just something fun for me to do,” she admits.

Her Instagram page will inspire you to start baking.

We’ve already covered Natalie Sideserf’s work before, but we now wanted to share a new cake she made recently. It’s an incredibly realistic Taco Bell beef taco replica and you won’t believe it’s not a real thing.

Along with the photo of the taco cake on Instagram, Sideserf shared a Youtube video showing the process of making it. If you follow her instructions, you can try making your own Taco Bell cake. Keep in mind that she’s bringing years of practice into her every project and don’t be disappointed if it doesn’t come out like this in the first try.

Sideserf lives and works in Austin, Texas, where she moved from Cleveland. She runs her business Sideserf Cake Studio and is known for making realistic cakes that look and taste amazing. Check out the “how-to” video for the Taco Bell cake below.

Did you know that the word “dessert” originates from the French word desservir, meaning “to clear the table?” Our favorite course (and sometimes our entire meal) – we can’t get enough dessert inspiration on Instagram, feeding both our eyes and mouths. Here are some of our favorite accounts to get our sweet fix.

Who said a dessert has to consist of eggs and milk? 17-years-old, Jose, would argue that you can make a mouthwatering dish that’s 100% vegan. And with more than 1.6 million (!) followers on Instagram, he’s clearly more than proven himself. Based in Lima, Peru, Jose went 100 percent vegan by the age of 14 and taught himself to cook from scratch. His Instagram page features anything from cakes to smoothies. “Life’s too short to eat boring food,” reads his bio.

loriastern

Chef Loria Stern has turned into somewhat of a celebrity, thanks to her beautiful flower pressed shortbread cookies, which were featured in publications like VogueHarper’s Bazaar, and Goop. Entirely made by hand, each cookie is different, pressed with individual botanicals, using flowers and herbs seasonally available. “On a busy week, we bake over 2,000 cookies,” shared Stern with Voyage LA. “I’m most proud that I get to do what I love most for work– and that is feed people.”

hazelzakariya

Drink up! New Zealand-based food artist, Hazel Zakariya, creates remarkable smoothies that are pure delight. Treating her smoothies as a sort of canvas, her smoothie-paintings feature real or fictional characters. As a base, she uses smoothies made from cream, milk, fruits, and berries, while the paintings themselves are created using coconut cream, almond milk, spices, herbs, and vegetable powders. But would you dare destroy this tangible art piece?
