Some days, you just have to have cake. Other days, the cake is for a reason. This was the case, as it were. I wanted cake and it was someones birthday. I admit right up front, it couldn't have worked out any more perfect than that. Of course, the cherry on top, metophorically speaking, was that I could also squeeze a #MarketFriday post out of the day. Win-win-win.
Today is #MarketFriday initiated by @dswigle (Denise, that's me!!) Join me as we share our markets across the globe. I always look forward to seeing what you send me! It is amazing to see the different markets and cultures of our friends here on Hive.
Sometimes, you strike it rich, finding a wonderful recipe, changing it up to make it to your own liking and present it to those you love, or perhaps to those that love you. Either way, it feels pretty good. Such was the case with this cake, in all of its apple caramelness. To have a proper #MarketFriday post, there needs to be some shopping to get a few of the hardly ever used ingrdients. Caramel? Once in a blue moon, perhaps. Being honest, I never eat it. Pure sugar? Not today. So I get myself together and go to my comissary, where I know they will have everything I need, and, the price is right.
The goodness is right in front of my very eyes. I am looking for some apples and a few other select ingredients. A bit of this and that and perhaps a few things to integrate into my dinners. Vegetable and fruits. I needed some peppers and I spy a wall of apples straight ahead.
The apples are a crucial ingredient in the cake, and sometimes getting the right apple can be trying. I like when a recipe calls for 3 cups of apple. What kind? They don't just make apples like when I was growing up. They didn't label them, it was pulled from the orchard in our side yard. They were McIntosh. These fit into any recipe, so says my mom. Besides the fact that they were free. That counted for everything. So to be fair, use any kind of apple. I prefer Honeycrisp or Granny Smith, but, honestly, any apple will work.
They check you out, bag your groceries then bring them out to the car for you. That is one of the reasons I like shopping here. They make it so painless. Service with a smile. Tip! Thank you so much for taking the trip to the Commissary with me. Now we need to get started on this cake before time runs out or people get tired of reading. I had to use an old shot of the cashier as the employees are still wearing masks as are most people. Don't forget to take a few minutes and check out the other markets!
We have done the commisary. Check. We are home and put away the groceries. Check. Get out the ingredients, pans and parchment paper. Check. Get out the recipe. Check. Go!

Start with the Apples:
2 cups diced apples, heaping about two medium apples
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Apple Spice Cake:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 cup sugar
3 large eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla
Caramel:
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup water
150 ml heavy cream, room temperature
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
Caramel Swiss Meringue Buttercream:
3 large egg whites
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, cubed, room temperature
1/2 cup caramel
Directions!
Peel and dice apples. Add 1 tablespoon light brown sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Set aside.
For the Spicecake
Preheat oven to 350F. Grease and flour three 6″ cake round pans and line with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, spices, and salt. Set aside.
With a stand mixer, combine vegetable oil and sugars. Beat until well combined, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, fully incorporating after each addition. Add vanilla.
Add flour mixture in 3 parts. Fold in apples.
Spread batter evenly into prepared pans and bake for 45-50 mins or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
Place cakes on wire rack to cool for 10mins then turn out onto wire rack to cool completely.
For the Caramel
Place sugar and water into a medium pot, stir to combine, but do not stir from this point forward. Cook over high heat, washing down the sides of the pot with a pastry brush dipped in water as needed to prevent crystals.
Cook until desired color of caramel is reached (amber) and immediately remove from heat. Very slowly pour in heavy cream while whisking quickly. The mixture will bubble up (a lot) and boil. Add butter, return to heat, and bring back to a boil. Cook for 2 minutes whisking constantly.
Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. Transfer to a container and place in fridge to thicken.
Caramel Swiss Meringue Buttercream:
Place egg whites and sugar in mixing bowl, whisk until combined.
Place bowl over hot water bath on stove, whisk constantly until the mixture reads 160F on a candy thermometer and is no longer grainy to the touch, about 3 minutes.
Place bowl on your stand mixer and whip on med-high until the meringue is stiff and cooled, bowl is no longer warm to the touch, about 5 minutes.
Switch to paddle attachment. Slowly add cubed butter, mix until smooth.
Add cooled caramel and whip until smooth
The Assembly!
Trim cake layers if needed. Place one layer of cake on a cake stand or serving plate. Top with 2/3 cup of frosting, spread evenly. Repeat with remaining layers.
Frost and smooth the outside with a thin crumb coat. Chill for 20mins.
Using a small spoon, place dollops of caramel around the top edges of the cooled cake, allowing some to drip down. Fill in the top of the cake with more caramel and spread evenly.
Please leave the link to your post here so it can easily be found by others. It helps you and me to have them in one place. Where else can you take such a quick trip around the globe? Thank you so much for joining us!! ❤

Someone sure came into a nice haul of presents!!! I can admit to being a little jelly even without knowing what is in them LOL!
I could enjoy polishing of about half that cake even without the frosting!!! Sometimes the extra sugars are too sweet for me!
Did you know I always enjoy your cooking posts and think you should add more along the way!
Here is my link, Christmas Girl:

Shhhh! You just want to see if I can cook, am I right? I only cook with a recipe. Without a recipe, I am hopeless and I am pretty sure that not even the dog would eat it. Maybe, but, he would have to be super hungry and maybe a little blind.
This cake was actually pretty good and honestly, it was the smaller pans that made the difference in how elegant it turned out. It was taller, sleeker, and well dressed. Boom. Elegant. :)
I am glad that you enjoy the cooking posts. I will have to try a few more sometime. Don't be jelly re: the gifts. It was all girlie things. You know, everyone is prettier in pink. Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving your words, dropping your link behind!

Looks like another fabulous peek at Thailand!
#MarketFriday loves you!
Yep I need to been strong when approaching cakes like that. Enjoy the post and have a great week @dswigle :)
Thank you!! You too! :))
The finished cake looked delicious and I must admit very professional. too much sugar is a turn off for me too Denise but I agree there are occasions when the recipe needs to be followed and all the sugar is put in.
Thanks for the Christmas countdown, I have not given these festive season once ounce of thinking at all. I find it all a bit scary. xx
Thank you so much and believe me, when I say this oh, it is anything but professional. But I love that you think so. It was fun making and my first try was a little bit more caramel in pools than this time. So I think there's a little bit of a learning curve there for me. Practice makes perfect in I think the third time may be a charms! I am not much of a sugar person oh, it's a matter of fact I don't even have it in my house unless I am cooking. I have just never had a real sweet tooth but occasionally I will find something that tastes good.
I do love the Christmas countdown, more for me than anybody else because it shows me how much time I have to mail out my packages. The ones here in the states are not too bad and nowadays it is not too bad sending it overseas, but there are times when it's hazardous, like last year. I have not really given the season much thinking, but as I say that oh, I live with Christmas in my heart all year long. Now that might be a little scary. I blame it on my elf heritage. LOL
#MarketFriday loves you!!
Dude walks into a bar, says something something piece'0 cake so the bartender stops everything he's doing and explained to Dude where the phrase "piece'0 cake" originated.
During which privileged guy learned cakewalk is equally horrific and refrains from using either "catch phrase" to this day but what's worse is society's Mornalized both.
💖
Fancy meeting you here @dandays !! ❤️ How is the luckiest guy alive doing, along with the delightful Pura?
Do tell? Should I be searching for horrific or cakewalk?
Thanks for the smile, you are the king of phraseology, just where do you come up with these? :)
Sorry, it took me so long to see this!! You know I love to hear from you.
#MarketFriday loves you!
Never too late for a Dswigle visit. Happy Sunday. I just verified that, today is in fact Sunday. If you'd like I'll narrow the search, did you know this before now?
💖
"Cakewalk"
"Piece of Cake"
Not so much in that context as it was a contest and a cake was awarded. That is the extent of my knowledge. I didn't think it was on this continent.
Hello! I love that site and have never seen it! Thank you!
Yes. today is indeed Sunday. God will be glad you showed up on the assigned day. He saved you a seat.
Fact—DanDays was born on a Sunday.
My point exactly. You and the BigGuy are in cahoots!
That looks beyond delicious! I'm glad that you shared pictures of veggies to go along with the cake and balance it out; it's not quite a completely unhealthy post that way.
I'm really hoping that one of those neatly wrapped gift boxes is a slice of cake earmarked for a certain Canadian ex-pat in Delaware.
Well, darn! You know it is! When you get it, be sure to not shake, shake, shake it! You need to save that move for the dancing in the street! I always serve veggies because I don't usually eat sugar. As a matter of fact, next time I bake, I will probably have to borrow some from you.
It really was good, and I have another one for later today! I need to stop the insaneness! Thanks for stopping by and giving me the thumbs up on this one!
#MarketFriday loves you!
My goodness, that is a beautiful cake and looks quite tasty, too! 😋 Sounds like a bit of work making it, but for a special occasion like a birthday it's totally worth it to spoil the party-goers! Kudos!
I never saw the inside of a commissary. It looks like a typical high-end market. Since they're on military bases, I expected a "no frills" look, more like Walmart than Harris Teeter! 😂
Thank you so much for those kind words! I think the next try will be just a little bit better because it seems to get a little bit more like it should on each try. I think it's because of all the things going on in the cake, either that or I'm just not very organized. Although it looks like it was a lot of work making it, the first time was a little bit more than I bargained for but the second time was way easier because I knew what to expect. Yes! On birthdays there is no limit to what you may have. I tell them that the sky is the limit. One of these days I'm going to eat my words.
The commissaries are all different and some on a little tiny base like Pope Air Force Base was, in Fayetteville, was no more than a big corner store because of course, you had Fort Bragg right outside the gate to shop at. With all the base closings and the combining of forces, they have made bigger commissaries and fewer of them. Most are very typical of a high-end Market, where, as they used to be no-frills because the base supported them, over the years it has changed, and now they need to be self-supporting and use local sources. Harris Teeter rocks! That's the store that's closest to me. I had no idea until I looked today for some reason but Harris Teeter is wholly owned by Kroger's! Who knew? Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving all your generous words!
#MarketFriday loves you!
Heavenly!!!
I will make this cake.
Thank you for the recipe.
I don't think I have done apple cake (variations) in ages!
Thank you so much! I hope you do. It looks harder than it really is. I go pretty much by the recipe as I am not all that creative. :) But, I can say that using those smaller cake rounds really made all the difference in the world. It makes it look more elegant with the three layers and it is smaller, so the cake doesn't sit around all week, waiting to be eaten! I have a couple of good apple cakes. We do love our apples here!
Thanks for stopping by and I would love to see it if you make it!
#MarketFriday loves you!
Those are tiny pans... 6 '.
I think I will buy myself some!
You can usually get them at Michaels craft stores. They have a baking section, but, I am sure you knew that. ;)
I know there is a Michael's in town somewhere.
I haven't been to a Michael's since I moved here, hehe🙃
But I'll order it on Amazon!
Darn it!!
Of course cantaloupe hahaha
Look at that cake
Well, I never say no to sugar (though I really must)
I have saved recipe- maybe one day
Thank you
Oh, do it! You will love this one! I have another recipe on Sunday for a Diplomat Creme Cake. Oh, my! Talk about delicious! You never say no to sugar? Do tell!
Of course, Can't'elope! :) I loved that one. I needed a food one today. Thank you for stopping by! I hope you have a great Power Up Day!

Three layers of deliciousness. Wow, this looks amazing. I've never done the layer cake before and you make it look so simple. I'll need to build up my confidence to do this one.
Every day should be cake day!
Here's my entry for this week, have a great day and weekend.
https://peakd.com/hive-196308/@buffalobison/market-friday-spatula-city
It was three layers! I think it made it look more exotic that way or exotic is promptly the wrong word, but it definitely made it look a lot cooler. The Warriors are not very hard to do oh, just more labor-intensive. Given the fact that you were so handy in many other things, doing a layer cake would be a walk in the park. I think you should try it. And then of course I think you should video it so that we can all watch.
You have the best ideas! Everyday should be cake day! I have a house full of people here that would jump on that bandwagon. Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving your words oh, I always get a big chuckle out of them. I also appreciate the fact that you stopped by to drop your link.
#MarketFriday loves you!
I love your apple racks! there are just a huge number of them and a huge selection. The cake is just gorgeous !!!! You did great !!!!! By the way, you reminded me that I haven't baked an apple pie for a long time. 😀
https://ecency.com/hive-196308/@tali72/looking-for-white-paint
Can you believe how many apples they have in the commissary? There are so many and there is a huge selection of different kinds. Thank you so much, the cake took a little bit to make but not too bad to put together. In the end, everybody loved it. As a matter of fact oh, I have been baked an apple pie since last winter! Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving your words and dropping your link!

@dswigle wow dear very delicious cake,fresh vegetables and shopping mol.Nice day it...

I am so glad that you are enjoying the delicious looking cake that I made. Of course, to give the post a little bit more credence, I took you shopping for the apples. I was pretty happy the way it came out and it was pretty good tasting. Thank you so much for stopping by and say hello and dropping your link!
Have a great day!
#MarketFriday loves you!
I remember you mentioning this post yesterday and the cake,and I almost forgot to swing by after posting mine this week, I guess not getting out for my morning walks is getting me out of sink.
What a brilliant idea for your market post this week, a delicious looking cake and the visit to the market to get the ingredients.
her ei smy post for this week https://peakd.com/hive-194913/@tattoodjay/market-friday-our-lady-of-guadalupe-parish-at-st-james-church
Well I'm so glad that you didn't forget to come by and grab a piece! I know that when I am out of my element or I am doing something out of sync with my schedule, it messes up everything else in life. Are we getting old? Or perhaps we are just more set in life. Speedway doesn't sound good for us. We really are getting a little bit more creative with our Market posts, aren't we? I consider that a good thing, giving myself a little bit more of a challenge. Thank you so much and who knows? You actually make this. Stay tuned because another one will be here on our beautiful Sunday! Thanks so much for stopping by and always leaving me such kind and generous words. I appreciate you dropping the link and I hope that you have a most fabulous day.
#MarketFriday loves you!
I think such a nice cake would be dangerous fir me and my diet lol
Of course we’re not getting old that can nit be the case I say unconvincingly lol
I will tell you a secret. The cake is a little dangerous because it actually tastes pretty good despite all of the sweet ingredients that go into it. I don't eat any sugar and I had a small slice and it was pretty good, but I found myself wanting another one, and my red flag of warning went up! So, in fact you are probably right and there is nothing about this that is good for any diet. Self-imposed or not. Of course we're not getting old! Just keep on telling yourself that. Stop listening to those old bones telling you stories. If they don't shut up soon, I would threaten to buy a new set. LOL I don't know about you, but this morning was cooler than it's been all year! It's still in the seventies but tomorrow will be in the 80s.
Lol the bones get louder and louder each year I think some need replacing lol
I don’t think will see 80s fir a few months now but will take the 70s we’re getting. Fir next few days
What's that you said? I can't hear it over them bones clacking! What a racket!
Just kidding! Anyone who can walk 10 miles a day like you do is just starting to break in the body. You are in your stride now! Keep on pressing the test button! :)
Hive on, my friend.
Lol been a while since I did 10 miles 5 is a good day for me of recent
Oh my, your apple spice cake with caramel topping is sooo mouth-watering! I love cakes and won't mind the caramel on top of it. I hope you enjoyed celebrating and munching the cake. Hehe.
Well, my market Friday had nothing to do with cake. I went meat shopping! Here's my link - -
https://ecency.com/hive-196308/@kemmyb/shopping-for-fresh-or-frozen-meat
Have a relaxing weekend ahead. 😊
Thank you so much! We have a spice cake with the caramel topping was absolutely delicious! I think I like to make cakes more than I like to eat them, but oh, I have never had a cake wasted in my house. They're all cake eaters and they really loved this one. I am glad that you're Market Friday has something to do with a cake because there is nothing better than a little variety. Let's go check out that meat market! Thank you so much for dropping by and leaving your words and dropping your link for me! Thank you for the wishes and I hope you have a great weekend yourself.

Hey! It's delicious!
It really was, and, I don't even like cakes! Well, not as much as the next person. :))
The cake was for a birthday and it went over well, so that made me happy. I will definitely make it again as it wasted no time in getting eaten. Thank you so much for stopping by and for dropping your link. I appreciate your dedication in supporting #MarketFriday!

Bwahahaha!Can't-elope!!
That cake looks and sounds divine!
It was the best I could do! :)) The cake is delicious! I swear it! It is actually easier than it sounds. The second time I made it, it went much quicker.
Hope you are enjoying the spring weather! It is about time you saw something other than the cold mornings! Have a wonderful weekend, Fiona!

Haha! Thank you so much, Sam! @mcsamm It was for one of my daughter's birthdays and they get to pick which cake I make for them. They always pick something a little more extravagant than I would make. :) But, their special day comes but once a year.
I hope all is well with you and your new life as a married man.

my pleasure Denise.
Cake !
Love the looks of this one with the caramel oozing down the sides. So inviting !
Cake! It had your name written all over it! I actually could see you doing something like this for your family on one of the holidays. You're always doing some fancy Dancy little edible for your Shing dings! The caramel oozing down the sides used a little bit too much on the first one that I did and the next time I had to be a little more restraining. I have to admit that even though the first one was a little messier, it didn't take away from the deliciousness of the caramel. Thank you so much, my friend, you always leave such kind comments.
#MarketFriday loves you!
I LOVE it when my name is on a cake. That means I get to take what's leftover home with me.
LOL....gimme
Haha! Now I know what to put on the other cake! :)
I'm waiting....
It will be on #BeautifulSunday
I hear it is quite Sublime!
Oh my goodness, I think I've died and gone to heaven looking at that cake. I'm now going out to find me some cake!
Haha! Thank you so much for your lovely comment! If you do run out and get cake, I encourage you to save the sordid details for next week's #MarketFriday! LOL
It was delicious and I will be doing another one for #BeautifulSunday, I think I consider it a little bit fancier, but, definitely delicious. Yikes! I need to stop this insanity, right? :)
#MarketFriday loves you!
I have such a sweet tooth. I do try to cut down, I really do. Unfortunately, people keep posting about their cakes and off I trot to the shops again. 😃🍩🎂
Haha! Does that excuse work for you? I need to try that one with pizza! :))
That was very interesting to see about how to make cake, the superstore is beautiful with lots of vegetables and fruits. Last week i was so much busy that forget to take preparation for market Friday and two exam in a single day also distract from here. Another fact is that next two friday will be engage with the same reason. Stay happy with market friday.
Thank you. Happy #MarketFriday.

Thanks mam
How was your day?
My day was great, the weather is perfect and all is well here in the household. It doesn't get any better than that.
The cake looks so yummy 😋 and tasty I don't really like sweet cakes, @dswigle do have a wonderful Friday dear friend
The cake did look pretty good, but, I don't really eat sugar, so, for me, it was more about the looks. Everyone else in the family loved it, so, that was all that counted, right?
I do eat sweet things from time to time, but, it is rare. I don't even keep sugar in the house unless I am baking. :) Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving your words.

Mere looking at the cake I know it's going to taste so nice..... Nice work
Thank you so much! I am glad to see that you like it and it did taste really good! I am posting another tonight! Too much cake~!! But, it has been fun.
I appreciate your words.
#MarketFriday loves you!
Every day is someone's birthday, so you could theoretically have cake every single day :)
You have to understand that wanting cake is once in a blue moon. I never want cake and so when I do and it's someone's birthday, that's a score for me! You are right in saying that every day it's probably somebody's birthday and theoretically oh, I could make and eat a cake every single day. I will warn you that if that happens oh, somebody will be carrying me around in a wheelbarrow because I will have gained at least a hundred pounds. Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving your hilarious words.
#MarketFriday loves you!
Or you could just get one of those grocery store shopping scooters for old people. Putter to the store, buy cake, putter back home, repeat.
And be battered by an old people because I am using their transportation? Perish the thought! I will just keep up my schedule of running every other day. It should keep those calories at bay! :)
LOL
That cake looks delicious.. Very tempting.
Thank you so much @sofs-su! I will take that as a compliment! I don't really like sweet things as a general rule, but, this had a candy apple sort of reminder. I am sure that I will make it again and again. The family really liked it and it did not site idle for very long.
Another thing I liked about it was I used smaller pans and the cake was taller. It was kind of different and cool. I don't think it would be as fun with larger pans.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving your words! Have a nice weekend!

The Apple picture is so professionally captured .love it .happy #marketfriday🙂
Thank you so much for your words. I am glad that you like the Apple picture although I'm not sure if you're talking about the apples along the wall of the store or the apple cake. But I was impressed with the apples on the wall so I'm going to guess that that was it! Thank you for your words and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
#MarketFriday loves you!
the cake is looking great without the white and brown creams for me. Just perfect as is :-)
the only recipes i use in my life is the film developing recipes :-) everything else is by my eyes:-))))
Thank you so much for your words, Victor! I get where you're coming from with omitting be sugar have the white and brown cream. I am more along the simple and very rarely use sugar yes, as a matter of fact there is none in my house unless I am baking. I have always been this way oh, it has nothing to do with health or trying to do better with losing weight or something. I know perfectly well how you develop recipes. LOL although I never took you for a starving artist as everything else is with your eyes! You are awesome, my friend! Thanks for your words!
#MarketFriday loves you!
yes, during the "pandemic" - our health is the only helper to fight any kind of flu - less sugar, more Vitamin C and D and you can forget about vaccination :-)
thank you for the kind words. Exactly today I developed BW film and have an additional one for tomorrow - hope to use the new, never used before the recipe for tomorrow :-)
I love cakes - mostly with honey or cheese, or cinnamon :-)
Cheese! Cinnamon and Honey are great. I find I am a savory eater. I don't eat sugar honestly. I have never, even as a kid. I don't even have it in my house unless I am baking for the family.
Spoiler alert: I have another recipe for Sunday per request. I take C and D every day. :) If people only knew that most illnesses are from lack of vitamins.
Oh, I hope to see the new photos tomorrow! Have a good night! It is beyond late! ;)
*"I don't even have it in my house" * same here, sometimes i have to say sorry to my friends when i make them coffee, that the coffee will be without sugar. (many ppl drink it this way and i have no idea why)
good night :-)
That caramel apple cake looks so delicious, love to give it a try. Thank you @dswigle for sharing.
Thank you so much for stopping by and checking in on the caramel apple cake! It was delicious and I think you should give it a try! I used 6 inch pans, so it made the cake taller and smaller than most, which was perfect for my family!
Thank you for your words and on Sunday - #beautifulsunday - another cake! A slightly fancier, richer one. Enjoy your weekend!
