Spring carried the delicate fragrance of sakura! Sakura Cherry Blossom Japanese Cheesecake Recipe is a fleeting poem captured in cream, a delicate dance of floral essence and creamy clouds. The sakura, not just any blossom, demanded utmost respect. Only the finest, sun-kissed petals, their essence delicately extracted, could infuse the cream cheese with a whisper of spring's perfume. Folded in gently, they became ethereal threads, weaving their floral melody into the very soul of the batter. I had conquered the fleeting waltz, creating a Japanese cheesecake recipe that was a sonnet to nature's delicate beauty. NUTRITIONAL PROFILE Before we immerse ourselves in the delicate steps of creating this culinary masterpiece, let's appreciate the nutritional subtlety it offers. Enriched with the elegance of sakura essence, this Japanese Cheesecake not only indulges the sweet tooth but also introduces a refined and health-conscious dimension. The light and airy texture of the cheesecake base further heightens the sophistication of this creation. INGREDIENTS 200g cream cheese, softened 60g unsalted butter 100ml whole milk 6 large eggs, separated 100g granulated sugar 1 teaspoon sakura essence (cherry blossom extract) 70g cake flour 30g cornstarch 1/4 teaspoon salt Edible cherry blossoms for decoration (optional) RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS STEP 01 Prepare and Preheat: Preheat your oven to 320°F (160°C). Line the base and sides of an 8-inch (20cm) round cake pan with parchment paper. STEP 02 Sakura Essence Infusion: Introduce the ethereal notes of sakura essence to the softened cream cheese, butter, and milk. Allow the mixture to cool, letting the delicate fragrance infuse into the ingredients. STEP 03 Egg Yolk Symphony: Whisk the egg yolks and sugar until pale and fluffy. Add the sakura-infused cream cheese mixture, blending until smooth. STEP 04 Floral Flourish: Sift in the cake flour, cornstarch, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the batter until just combined. STEP 05 Whipped Brilliance: In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the sakura-infused batter, ensuring a light and airy texture reminiscent of cherry blossom petals. STEP 06 Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and tap it on the counter to release any air bubbles. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until the top is golden and the center is set. STEP 07 Cherry Blossom Adornment: If desired, delicately place edible cherry blossoms on the surface of the batter before baking for a visually stunning touch. STEP 08 Cooling Serenity: Allow the Japanese Cheesecake to cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar, then refrigerate for a few hours or overnight before serving. SERVING IDEAS Indulge in the ethereal charm of this cheesecake by serving it chilled, allowing the subtle sakura essence to shine. For an extra touch of elegance, garnish each slice with more edible cherry blossoms or a dusting of powdered sugar. Serve with a delicate sakura tea for a truly immersive experience.

Spring is typically the time when we trade in our decadent, doughy desserts for lighter, fruit-laden fare — especially following extravagant feasts like the kind served at Passover and Easter. And while these personal-size pavlovas are ideal finales to either occasion, they’re especially perfect for Pesach. Unlike most baked goods, which are considered chametz, i.e. forbidden during the Jewish holiday, these airy delights are leaven-free. They’re also topped with fresh berries and tangy lemon curd, bringing a burst of sweetness that’s juuuust right for the end of a big meal. Passover Pavlovas

Spring striped yellow and white cake, frosted in a soft and sweet Almond Cream Cheese Frosting, and speckled just like a beautiful Easter Egg - such a perfect dessert for Easter or any Spring celebration! Easter is only a couple days away! My family celebrates it in countless ways, most of them purely spiritual, but I do love myself a fun Easter egg hunt. Each year, my family has a tradition of having a little backyard Easter Egg hunt for the grandkids on my side of the family. We have 6 grandkids (one more on the way from my big sister), so each year I feel like it grows into more of a celebration together - and lots more eggs to hide! We have a rule that keeps everything pretty even keel throughout this whole process. Each grandkid gets their own color - that way there's an even amount of eggs to be found, and we can hide some of the eggs a bit more out of sight for the older grandkids! My 9-month old's eggs were just thrown on the grass. He was more than delighted! I made this cake to celebrate two of our March birthdays, but also to celebrate all things spring to mark the occasion. It's striped with yellow and white on the inside, was 4 layers tall (only a 6" round, so kind of a little cake), and I frosted it in my almond cream cheese frosting. It's heavenly! I didn't do a clear side/edge on purpose. There's a bit of a ribbon effect on the sides, and I loved it. The top had that lovely frosting piped to the stars and a giant malt Easter candy egg on the tip of each one. I sprinkled the top with a little white edible Easter grass sprinkle (found and Walmart), and it gave it more of an unkempt basket look. But let's talk about that egg speckle on the sides! I found the technique on The Cake Blog (link in directions), and it turned out to be SUPER easy! All it took was a little vanilla and cocoa powder mixed together into a thick edible "paint" and then using a large brush, I flicked the paint on to the side of the cake with my thumb, and it speckled the side of the cake up beautifully! Really fun! I can't wait to do this again next year with maybe a robin egg blue or soft yellow. Happy Easter! Easter Cake makes 10 small servings ingredients: white flour + shortening spread for greasing cake rounds 1 box white cake mix 4 egg whites 3/4 C buttermilk 3/4 C sour cream 1/3 C vegetable oil 1 T vanilla food coloring for striped layers about 5 C *my almond cream cheese frosting vanilla + cocoa powder (amounts will vary) large candy eggs & white grass sprinkles for decoration method: 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prep 2 6" cake rounds with shortening spread (I use a baggy around my hand to get all the small places on the cake round), then dusted thoroughly with flour. What I usually do is add about 3 T to the greased round, then swirl it around until the flour coats everything, then I tap out the excess. Place aside. 2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add white cake mix and mix by itself to break up any cake mix that has clumped together. 3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together egg whites, buttermilk, sour cream, veggie oil, and vanilla. Mix together until everything is thoroughly combined and you see no clumps of anything. 4. Add into your cake mix, and mix on medium until it's barely mixed together. Half the batter, and add food coloring to one half if desired. Pour a little less than half the batter into each round. (You'll have about a cup extra in the bowl - but overfilling the small rounds will make a mess in your oven, trust me!). 5. Bake both rounds at the same time for 25-30 minutes until cakes are springy in the middle. Flip upside down onto a wire rack for cooling. While they are cooling, prep your frosting using the directions linked above. I would add a little more powdered sugar to the recipe to make sure the frosting is stiff enough in consistency to hold up those giant candy eggs. 6. When the cake rounds have cooled, frost the cake according to your wildest dreams. Hah. I use the fridge to help the cake's frosting become a little easier to manage. Especially with this cream cheese frosting. Use a star tip to pipe a few peaks on top. 7. To make the "speckled" look, mix together about a teaspoon of vanilla with about a teaspoon of cocoa powder. Whisk it together until it's the consistency of paint, but not too watery-looking. With a large thick paintbrush (I just used my pastry/basting brush, hah!) flick with your thumb a little bit of the speckle paint onto the cake. Might want to practice the "flicking" in the sink to get it right before flicking it on your white cake! There's a really awesome tutorial with this while speckle deal on The Cake Blog here if you get confused! 8. Top with a few large eggs on the top of each peak, and then sprinkle with the grass sprinkles. Keep cold until about an hour before serving. recipe source: Baking with Blondie
