Maybe it's just me but this cake looks like a deluxe version of a dingdong snack cake to me. I've never been much of a big chocolate eater but I know several people that would really enjoy this beautiful dessert as a gift. It seems salted caramel is a pretty big deal these days, but I still can't wrap my head around it enough to try it...I love caramel but for some reason, the thought of adding salt doesn't make sense to me.

Another sinfully delicious dessert that is so irresistible for the sweet tooth like me. I love the taste of the salted caramel, it balances the very sweet taste of the caramel. I love this cake.
