Cakes That Delight with Syrup-Infused Flavors
Our cookbook features cakes that are both beautiful and bold:
Peach-Ginger Cake with Mascarpone Frosting (Optional Monin Peach Syrup)
Raspberry-Lavender Cake with Mascarpone Frosting (Optional Monin Lavender Syrup)
Chocolate-Rosemary Cake with Mascarpone Ganache (Optional Monin Chocolate Syrup)
Using Monin syrups allows you to match your frosting to the fruit or herb in the cake, creating a layered, flavorful experience every time.
Sprinkle in a syrup drizzle or fold a few drops into frosting — your desserts will taste like they came from a bakery, but they’re all homemade.
