Review

“If you are a fan of creative and delicious flavor and texture pairings, you will love Secret-Layer Cakes.”

–Jenni Field, founder of Pastry Chef Online


“Dini has created a loving and delicious volume that celebrates cake in all its beauty, both inside and out. This beautiful book is necessary for anyone who believes in the pure pleasure that cake can bring.”

―Jessie Moore, founder of CakeSpy


“Dini takes readers on a sweet trip around the world, combining a riot of avors and textures into inventive and modern cakes. Bakers tired of the same old recipes will find a wealth of inspiration in this collection of fun, creative cakes.”

―Elizabeth LaBau, founder of SugarHero!

From the Back Cover

Dini Kodippili, the creator of the blog The Flavor Bender, describes herself as a mad scientist in the kitchen. Through her experimentation, she developed secret-layer cakes. These unique cakes, which appear traditional at first, all have a hidden middle or bottom layer that will delight any dessert enthusiast. Her creations include blueberry cheesecake with a surprise lemon blondie layer, black forest mousse cake with a surprise layer of sour cherries and maple cheesecake with a hidden bacon brittle layer. Because why should you have to choose between pumpkin cheesecake and decadent brownies? With Dini?s recipes, you can have both. Dini has gained a social media following with her kitchen experiments and daring combinations. Between Pinterest, Facebook and Instagram, Dini has over 30k followers. Her recipes have been featured on Food & Wine. This book will have 60 recipes and 60 photos.

As far as I'm concerned, a cookbook without photos is useless, so when I started flipping the pages of this book, I was in heaven! The photos are absolutely gorgeous...

So, I rarely (if ever) make or eat cake. I write a "healthy" food blog. Holidays are exceptions to the rule. My husband and I decided our Christmas menu will feature one of Dini's amazing creations... the conundrum is which? The Pistachio Rose Saffron Cheesecake is calling my name, but hubby is salivating over the Fudgy Pistachio Baklava Cake. First world problems!

As I mentioned, the photography is stunning, but I have to mention how easy to follow the recipes are. As a food blogger, I recognize a clearly laid out and well-written recipe. I look forward to making our first of many of these beautiful desserts on Christmas day!

This is a beautiful book. I've made the cake on the cover and it looks dauntingly beautiful but was quite easy and absolutely delicious. I can't wait to dig into some more of the recipes. There are cakes for any occasion and not just slight version of a lot of the other cakes out there. I've got two copies so far. It makes the perfect gift.

I love baking cakes and always on the look out for new and interesting recipes. This book fills the bill. The cakes are unique and the pictures are just an icing on the cake. I baked Chocolate Peanut Dacquoise Cake so far and it was a success in my family. The only minor thing was that the cake itself was a bit too dense for my palate, but that just my own taste. :)
Otherwise I am looking forward to bake more cakes from this book.

It has creative combinations but as much as i read through it I didn't get inspiration to bake from it, it wasn't appealing it did have pictures on almost all recipes the steps are simple for the most part mostly cheesecakes I was looking more for cakes and pastries the book is not for me but I would recommend it if you love.

Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2023
The cakes are beautiful and creative. I am only disappointed that the author’s website recommends a 9 or 10 in springform pan which I bought, and the book only has recipes for an 8 in cake. I’ll have to buy another size or scale the recipe.
