Delicious Cakes and Cupcakes for Mother's Day

Published: May 1, 2019 · Modified: May 29, 2020 by Lizet

A collection of amazing cakes and cupcakes to serve your mom this year.

As we get ready to celebrate Mother's Day, I always joke around saying that I need 3 presents. One, because I'm Bolivian (May 27th). Two, because my kids were born in Paraguay (May 15th) and the third present, because my boys hold American passports (second Sunday in May). Am I right? 😌

Do you celebrate Mother's Day? do you take your mom out to eat or do you make something at home?

If you are more of a do it yourself kind of person, we have a great collection of amazing cakes and cupcakes for you to try.

We have fruity cakes, nutty cakes, decadent chocolate cakes and a small but amazing selection of gluten-free cakes and cupcakes.

What are you waiting for? grab a recipe and start baking!
