Recipes for holiday cakes with photos, step by step, at home
When you are preparing to bake a cake, the most important thing is not to rush and do it with all your heart. If you are not in the mood, it is better not to tackle the cake. Good luck!
1. Cake "Zebra"
Everyone knows this miracle from early childhood. His recipes have been passed down for generations. The taste is simply amazing. Consider a classic recipe for this cake.
Ingredients:
- flour 2 tbsp.
- eggs 4 pcs.
- sugar 1.5 tbsp.
- sour cream 200 gr.
- butter 180 gr.
- soda 0.5 tsp
- vinegar essence
- cocoa 3 tbsp
- vanillin on the tip of a knife
Preparation:
1. Combine fresh eggs with sugar in a cup and beat with a mixer.
2. Melt the butter over a fire or steam bath and cool slightly. Pour the butter into the eggs in a thin stream, while stirring constantly.
It is advisable to use butter at least 80% fat. Not only quality depends on this, but taste and aroma.
3. Add sour cream to the total mass. It is better to take it over 20% fat. Mix everything thoroughly.
4. Gradually add flour, sifting it. It is imperative to control the consistency of the dough. It should not be very thick, but not liquid either. Mix everything well again.
5. Combine baking soda with a few drops of vinegar (sour cream), thereby extinguishing it. Add to the dough and mix everything.
6. Divide the finished dough in half. Add cocoa to one half and flour to the other. They should have the same consistency.
7. The dough should resemble thick sour cream.
8. Having finished kneading the dough, you can move on to the creative part of making the cake.
9. Initially, you need to grease the form well with vegetable oil, or use parchment.
10. Place 2 tablespoons of light dough in the center, then 2 tablespoons of chocolate dough. And so alternate until the required amount of dough in a baking sheet.
To make the drawing beautiful, you need to try to pour the dough into the same point.
11. Patience is needed here a lot. You will immediately notice when the pattern starts to form. You should get multi-colored circles. Continue spreading until the dough is finished.
12. To create a more original drawing, I advise you to use a toothpick or skewer. Here you can already show all your imagination. Or do as I do - draw lines from the center with a toothpick to the edge of the shape. If you draw the lines in reverse, from the edge to the center, you get a completely different pattern.
13. Put the cake in a preheated oven to 160 degrees and bake for 40 minutes. Since the dough is made with sour cream, the baking process may take a little longer than usual due to the low temperature.
By lowering the temperature and increasing the baking time, the cake is smoother. The middle practically does not rise, it remains on the same level with the main mass. It turns out an even cupcake.
14. When baking a cake - do not open the oven door to make it smooth and fluffy. Otherwise, it can settle sharply.
15. When the cake is browned, take it out and check for readiness with a toothpick. If it is crumbs and damp, put it back in the oven for another 5 minutes on the same mode. If dry and clean, it is completely ready.
If your cake turns brown quickly, but is damp, you can cover it with foil. Then it will bake well and will not burn.
16. Take the finished cake out of the mold and serve it like a cake or make the base of the cake. If it is a cake, then the cake should be cut into several cakes and soaked with cream to your liking. Fall on the table with aromatic tea.
17. Consider a recipe for making a universal sour cream that is suitable for impregnating any cake.
Ingredients:
- Sour cream 500 ml.
- Sugar 200 gr.
1. Mix fresh sour cream and sugar. Put in the cold for 10-15 minutes. Then mix again and beat well with a mixer.
2. Beat the sour cream with sugar at maximum speed until a creamy consistency is formed. The cream will be thick and lush.
3. Grease the cake layers with the finished cream. Decorate at will with whatever you like best. You can invite all household members to the table.
Bon appetit, everyone!
2. Cake "Honey cake"
Honey cake is a delicate and tasty cake, where many thin cakes are soaked and greased with cream. With a light taste and aroma of honey.
I bring to your attention a recipe for a classic honey cake, which presents a step-by-step cooking recipe with photos.
Cake ingredients
- eggs 4 pcs.
- sugar 1 tbsp.
- honey 4 tbsp. l.
- butter 100 gr.
- flour 3 tbsp.
- a pinch of salt
- vanillin - on the tip of a knife
- soda 1 tbsp. l.
Ingredients for the cream
- butter 250 gr
- condensed milk 1 can (380 gr.)
Honey cake can be prepared in two different ways: using a water bath or in a saucepan over a fire. The method using a water bath is described here.
1. The meaning of such a bath is that a smaller one is placed in a large vessel. But it should seem to be covering a large pot with a lid.
2. The small saucepan should not be in boiling water. It should be above it and heated with steam.
3. Before you put honey in the total mass, you must definitely taste it. After all, whatever the taste is, the whole dessert will turn out to be the same.
4. Heat the food combined in a small saucepan. in this way they will kind of melt. To prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom, it must be constantly stirred. In this case, the fire should be as strong as possible.
5. Beat the eggs so that the white is well combined with the yolk, as adding the eggs to the hot mixture can curdle the white. Light foam should be present.
6. Beat eggs better with a mixer at high speed. They should be poured in a very thin stream and at the same time actively stir the hot mixture so that the white and yolk do not cook when they are added to boiling water.
7. Without removing the dough from the heat, add baking soda and mix thoroughly again.
It is not necessary to extinguish soda here, since it will be completely extinguished by honey. In the finished delicacy, its taste will not be felt.
8. The resulting mixture must be warmed up well. In this case, a light foam and airiness should form. Only then can it be removed from the fire.
9. In a separate deep bowl, sift the flour (you can several times) and add vanillin there. To mix everything.
The more and more you sift the flour, the more airy the cakes will be. Since flour is saturated with oxygen during sifting, which is not so unimportant!
10. Add the sifted flour in portions to the kneaded dough. At the same time, do not forget to stir.
11. The batter is very sticky. Therefore, gradually adding flour, it becomes less sticky and more dense.
Be careful! If you pour a lot of flour, then the cakes will turn out to be very dry and hard.
12. When the dough has become very difficult to stir with a spoon, you need to transfer it to the table, adding a little flour. Ideally, the dough should not stick to your hands. At the same time, it spreads noticeably.
13. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap or cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. When it cools down, it will completely stop sticking and it will be easier to form cakes.
13. After the lapse of time, remove the dough and divide the "sausage" into 8 equal parts.
14. Form a ball from each part and fold into a cup, covered with a towel or plastic wrap. Put in the refrigerator. Leave only one of them on the table. With him and continue further work.
15. Roll out the first cake. Better to put parchment paper under it. The dough does not stick and is easier to transfer to a baking sheet. Or, you can constantly pour a small amount of flour under the cake.
16. Immediately cut the desired shape. You can use the cover here. Put it on top of the cake and using a knife, cut off the excess, which will be needed for decorating the cake.
17. In a preheated oven to 160-180 degrees, put the future cake to bake. The main thing is not to dry it out. Otherwise, it will turn out to be fragile and will not be saturated with cream.
18. Bake each cake until a reddish color appears, about 5 minutes. Depends on the oven temperature.
19. Do the same with the remaining balls.
20. Bake and trim. Then grind them up using a rolling pin. They look very interesting as a decoration on a cake. If you need finer chips, it is better to use a blender.
21. Place the cakes in a pile on a separate tray and leave to call.
Butter cream with condensed milk
It is important that the condensed milk and butter are at the same temperature.
1. In a cup, beat the butter until light and airy. It should be soft and warm.
2. Without stopping whipping the cream, gradually add the condensed milk. The main thing in such a cream is not to interrupt it.
3. If your cream is with grains, then it must be warmed up and then whipped again. Our butter cream is ready!
Assembling the cake:
1. Put the first cake on a beautiful dish and grease it with cream. The cream should be in moderation, and not so that he would run. You can divide the total amount of cream by the number of cakes.
2. Lubricate all the cakes in this way. Be sure to grease the top and side. Sprinkle the top of the cake and sides with crumbs, broken or chopped.
3. Leave the finished cake to stand warm for an hour or two. During this time, it will be well saturated. And then rearrange it in the cold for 2-3 hours, then a pleasant honey aroma and taste will appear.

To make the oil easy to grate, refrigerate it in the freezer.
Quickly grind the flour and butter mixture with your hands to get a homogeneous mass. Separate two yolks into a 250 ml glass or cup, add salt and vinegar and mix well. Add ice water to the top of the same container and immediately pour the resulting mixture into flour mixed with butter.
We knead the dough with our hands, divide it into 9 parts, from which we form individual lumps. We put them on a plate and send them to the cold for about an hour.
At this time, we start preparing the cream. Mix sugar, flour and eggs in a small saucepan. Fill the mixture with milk and start heating over medium flame.
Remember to stir the cream to prevent lumps and burns. Bring the custard to a boil, remove from heat and leave to cool. Add softened butter to the cooled mass and beat well with a blender.
Roll out thin cakes from the chilled dough and bake each on a dry baking sheet. Before sending the cake to an oven preheated to 180 degrees, it must be chopped in several places. We bake each cake until browning. We bake the ninth cake a little longer to get a brown crumb, which will be used for sprinkling.
The baking time will depend on the characteristics of the oven, but usually 10-15 minutes is enough for one crust.
Grease the finished cakes with cream, pressing each of them with your hands. Decorate the top with crumbs and leave the birthday cake for a few hours to soak.

Delicious Cake Recipe for Children's Birthday - Curd Cake
Baking with cottage cheese is a great option to diversify the menu with a healthy dessert and feed the child with such an important product as cottage cheese. The proposed recipe for a curd cake will require a certain amount of time to be prepared, but the result will undoubtedly please your guests and your baby.
For cooking you will need:
- flour - 1.5 cups;
- sugar - 1 glass;
- eggs - 1 pc.;
- soda - 1.5 tsp;
- homemade cottage cheese - 250 gr.
To prepare the cream you need:
- sugar - 1.5 cups;
- flour - 4 tablespoons;
- milk - 3.5 cups;
- butter - 150 gr.;
- vanilla sugar;
- lemon zest.
We start by making the dough. It is better to make curd dough in the evening, because it needs to stand for at least 8 hours.
In a bowl, mix the grated cottage cheese with egg and sugar. Add slaked soda and leave the mixture for 20 minutes. During this time, the curd blank is saturated with air and will slightly increase in volume.
Now add the sifted flour and knead the dough. It will stick to your hands, but this is not a reason to add extra flour. We cover the dough with foil and send it to the cold, where it will spend the next 8 hours.
If you need to prepare the curd urgently, let the dough stand for at least a couple of hours in the cold. Taking out the chilled dough, we form 6 identical balls from it.
This must be done quickly so that the dough does not heat up from the heat of the hands and the surrounding air.
Keep the curd balls cold before baking. Therefore, we take them out in turn and roll them into a layer. Sprinkle a baking sheet with flour and transfer a thin layer of dough onto it. Remember to chop the dough in several places before baking.
We immediately send the baking sheet to the oven. The cakes are baked very quickly. At 180 degrees, literally five minutes are enough for the cake to brown.
We will make a custard cream. To do this, add sugar to the milk and bring it to a boil. At this time, mix eggs with flour. As soon as the milk boils, carefully add the egg-milk mixture into it. The cream must be constantly stirred. We warm it up until the density reaches the consistency of thick sour cream.
We set aside the custard mixture until it cools down to room temperature. The oil can now be added. For aroma, pour vanilla and lemon zest into the cream. To make the cream more lush, beat it with a mixer.
Layer the curd cakes with custard. If desired, you can put crushed nuts or pieces of dried fruit between the cakes.
How to make an original, but uncomplicated birthday cake with your own hands: making a cheesecake
If you look into history, the first desserts made from cream cheese and shortbread pastry are found in ancient Rome. To us, this curd miracle came from America, and became a frequent guest at the everyday or festive table.
Ideally, the cheesecake is made with Savoyardi biscuits and Philadelphia cream cheese. But today we will try to make a simpler version of the dessert from the available products.
For cooking you will need:
- jubilee cookies - 300 gr.;
- butter - 100 gr.;
- eggs - 1 pc.
To prepare the filling you need:
- cream cheese - 450 gr.;
- sugar - 1 glass;
- eggs - 5 pcs.;
- fat sour cream - 1 glass;
- vanilla sugar.
First, we make the base of the dessert. To do this, grind the cookies and mix them with soft butter and an egg. With the resulting mass, close the bottom and sides of the form in which we will bake the dessert. To set the sand mass, put the mold in the cold.
In the meantime, we are preparing the filling. We begin to stir the cheese, gradually adding sugar to it. Without ceasing to interfere with the filling, we introduce into it one egg at a time. At the very end, add sour cream.
The cheesecake filling does not whip, but mix gently.
We take the base of the dessert out of the refrigerator and pour out all the filling. Cheesecake is baked at a low temperature. We keep it for about 40 minutes at 165 degrees. We don't get the cake out of the oven. After turning off the oven, soak the dessert in it for about an hour.
Now you can take out the cheesecake. The last important touch remains.
The cheesecake will spend the next 4 hours in the cold and only after that you can safely set the table, anticipating the enjoyment of the taste.
DIY beautiful cake for a holiday: Bird's milk
This dessert is difficult to classify as a simple confectionery. Its appearance and taste characteristics will not leave indifferent any guest.
If you're afraid of experimenting with complicated recipes, try making a lighter version of Bird's Milk Cake.
To prepare the dough you will need:
- flour - three quarters of a glass;
- sugar - half a glass;
- butter - 100 gr.;
- yolks - 3 pcs.;
- soda.
We will cook soufflé from:
- glasses of milk;
- 3 proteins;
- 1 tbsp. l. gelatin;
- citric acid.
To prepare the glaze you need:
- sugar - 3 tablespoons;
- sour cream - 2 tablespoons;
- cocoa - 2 tablespoons
This original cake is prepared in three stages, each of which requires attention from the hostess.
Let's start with the base of the cake. To do this, you first need to beat the yolks with butter. Add all the sugar and a little slaked soda to the whipped mass. Without stopping to knead the dough, add a little flour.
We will bake the base cake on baking paper, which needs to be covered with a baking sheet. We keep the cake in a hot oven until golden brown.
We will make the soufflé for the cake on the basis of gelatin. Therefore, you will have to fill the gelatin with water in advance so that it swells. We put the container with the swollen gelatin in a water bath and heat it until it is completely dissolved.
Do not allow gelatin to boil - it will lose its quality.
Separate the proteins and place them in a clean, dry container. Make sure that moisture or fat does not get to the proteins - otherwise they will not churn.
You can put a little citric acid - this will help to beat the whites faster and give the souffle a pleasant sourness.
Without stopping to beat the whites, add sugar in portions.
When you get a thick protein foam, you can start adding gelatin.
Only the gelatin mixture should be chilled or the proteins should curl up.
Make the icing immediately. Combine sugar with cocoa and add sour cream, vanillin.
After stirring all the ingredients, we send the workpiece to the fire.
Warming up a little, not forgetting to stir, put butter in a container.
The glaze is ready when the mixture starts to boil.
When all the components of the cake are ready, you can start assembling the masterpiece. We spread all the soufflé on a cold base, evenly distributing it over the surface, and send it to the cold to solidify.
If desired, this process can be divided into two stages, dividing the soufflé into uniform parts.
Bird's milk usually freezes for about a couple of hours. We take out the frozen cake and pour chilled chocolate icing on top. Such a beautiful cake does not require additional decorations.
He himself will decorate any feast and will surprise guests with an unusual light taste.
Experiment and select your original cake recipe for the holiday - and you will definitely find that masterpiece that will become the hallmark of your festive table.
