Bake a Category 5 Hurricane Cocktail Cake

Mar 4 2014

The cake bartender of CakeBuzz, a liqueur-infused cake company, joins us today to whip up a category 5 boozy hurricane cake. Four types of liqueur, used in both the cake and the icing, make this one saturated pastry. No cocktail and no cake is complete without garnish, so be sure to stock up on tropical fruits to slice over the top. Watch the video for the technique, then start baking with the recipe below.
