I've been hearing soooo much about the caramel cake, I just have to try it. I am going to add an apple filling...goes with the season. Now I need a good icing! I do want to be able to add flowers to the top of the cake, since it is for a BDay. Any ideas?

I just made the vanilla/caramel cake this week. I made a caramel filling and iced it the regular Wilton BC.

You can fill with apple and just ice with regular BC.

There are several caramel frosting recipes on this site. That sounds delish to me. Good Luck. icon_smile.gif

I know I have heard on some of the threads that people add some of the powdered vanilla/caramel creamer to their buttercream. You may not want to put too much in, might make the cake too rich....but hey, some people like it that way.

I am going to try the caramel cake with apple filling next week, think I will also add a tad bit of my liquid vanilla/caramel creamer in place of the liquid in my buttercream.....can't wait!

I think you can get an apple flavored Lorann oil to flavor the icing - or why not just make a caramel icing?

Okay, I'm doing butter cake with carmel filling-except- that I don't ahve a clue on how to make it! Any suggestions? The cake is for this weekend, and it's three tier. I was thinking I might play with the fillings and try a different one in each tier(It's a freebie!) I bought a bag of Toffee Bites, that I thought sounded good with it, just not sure how to get a carmel filling. I'll be using carmel cream cheese frosting. Thanks, Katie

OK I apparently haven't been reading enough of the threads on here LOL.

What's this caramel cake? Would you post the recipe please?

the caramel/apple mix sounds heavenly. I'd love to attempt it myself.

thanks in advance

Add 2 T. dry Vanilla/Caramel Coffeemate creamer to a white cake mix or scratch cake before mixing. Or...substitute 1/4 cup of the liquid version of the creamer in place of a 1/4 cup of water or milk, whichever you use in your recipe. Bake as usual.
