20 Christmas Cake Ideas You Will Love
Hi everyone! I love this time of year. We are a few days away from Christmas. It definitely has been a strange year due to Covid-19. I hope that your Christmas will have some normalcy, even though it probably isn’t the same as your previous Christmases. We aren’t celebrating with our extended families this year, so it will just be us, the immediate families. My kids are still super excited, so that is a good thing! I have been doing my annual Christmas inspiration write-ups since 2018 on Christmas cake decorations, and I love sharing holiday creations! So without further ado, here are some wonderful Christmas cake ideas from this holiday season for your Christmas dinner. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! 🎄 ❤️
My Christmas Cakes
Holiday Cakes
These Christmas cakes were part of my holiday menu for my cake business. I offered a Gingerbread Oreo cake, Peppermint Chocolate cake with peppermint flavor, and Eggnog festive drip cake options. They were so delicious! I think my favorite was the gingerbread cake. 🤤 Perfect for an easy Christmas cake! Link to these Christmas cake recipes below.
Mini Christmas Tree Cakes
I made these mini Christmas cakes for a fun collaboration on Instagram, 25 days of Christmas #25daysofcollabs2020 hosted by Kathyrn (@pastelle.cakery). Which one do you like the best? Traditional or Shaggy?
