Graduation Tassel Cake
Spring means the school term is coming to an end, and graduation season is almost on us!
Finishing school (of any type or level) is no easy feat, and the fact that these graduates are putting in effort and determination to complete that stage of education is an act that totally deserves more than a pat on the back. If you have someone in your life who is graduating soon, this is a great time to start preparing to celebrate.
Of course, no celebration is complete without a celebratory cake! Someone wise once said that "a gathering without cake is just a meeting" so let's take a hint from them and bake some cake. Here are 55 of our most stunning graduation cake recipes to celebrate the accomplishments of the students in your life.
While you can definitely do "graduation-themed" cakes—such as tassel cakes, graduation hat cakes, diploma cakes or even money cakes, you don't have to feel confined to those.
Maybe the graduate has a favorite cake flavor he/she would love to have on his/her special day. Cupcakes are also a great idea for a grad party because they are self-serve and perfect for mingling.
Or perhaps the guest of honor has another favorite dessert they would love to see transformed into a cake? Check out the S'mores Cake, Oatmeal Cream Pie Cake and Snickerdoodle Cake for tasty examples of this extra personal touch.
Why stop at just one cake? You can also offer a few different varieties for a fun cake buffet.
In fact, if you're up to it, feel free to prepare an elaborate and gloriously decadent layer cake, such as a chocolate peanut butter layer cake, a tiramisu layer cake or a 3-layer s'mores cake.
For something less fussy, you can also opt for a simple, but elegant, champagne bundt cake or a sheet pan cookie cake.
