Bake something fun, share it with the world, and you could win a Nordic Ware Honeycomb Pull-Apart Pan
Thank you to all of you who sent in photos of your Almond Plum Cakes! All of your cakes looked gorgeous and I was thrilled to hear from many of you who wrote to tell me that the recipe has been added to your list of favorites.
The July Bake Club winner is Ben from Oregon. He has been notified and his prize is on the way.
The August, 2021 Bake Club Challenge Recipe is...
I've made this cheesecake countless times over the years, including for a few weddings. One bride told me recently that even though she's been married for over 12 years, people still bring up her wedding cake as the best cheesecake they've ever eaten. 🙂
New York-style cheesecake is tall, dense, and incredibly rich and creamy. The pinnacle of indulgence. Making this cheesecake couldn't be easier. But, I've also shared everything I know about making it, storing it, freezing it, serving it, and even transporting and decorating it for a special occasion.
The August Bake Club Challenge Prize
Nordic Ware Honeycomb Pull-Apart Pan
This super fun honeycomb-inspired pan divides your dessert into perfectly portioned individual servings. Use it for cakes, pull-apart rolls and buns, or brownies.
Already own this pan or have something similar? If you’re selected as the winner, just let me know and I’ll send you a couple of other prize options.

Hi. I have been inspired to have a go in the bake challenge. Do entries for the August competition really need to be submitted by 1st August? Can I change the crust to a Gluten Free crust? Seems to be minimal wheat flour which I will also substitute in filling. I am also interested in changing the topping.

Hi Dianne! Welcome to the Bake Club! And, THANK YOU for catching that embarrassing typo. Entries for the August Bake Club challenge must be submitted before September 1st, not August 1st. 🤦🏻♀️ I've corrected that mistake. 😊
And yes - you are more than welcome to change any bake club recipe however you like. In fact, I encourage it! It's always fun to see how people have taken a recipe and made adjustments to suit their personal tastes and preferences.
Please let me know if you have any other questions! I can't wait to hear what you think of this month's recipe! xo
