As the baker in the family, I always look forward to special occasions like Mother’s Day to whip up something tasty. But when it comes to cakes, I don’t need an occasion. But sometimes, finding the perfect recipe to fit the celebration is tricky. So, I scoured the internet to bring you the best Mother’s Day cakes, from myself and my fellow bakers, that you can try out this year. Bake love in these sweet treats this year, and thank me later.

Eggless Strawberry Cake
This eggless strawberry cake with luscious cream cheese and butter frosting has two loaves of buttery, crumbly cake. It uses over one pound of fresh strawberries, about one pound of butter, and 3.5 ounces of cream cheese. Since I don’t like my cakes to be too sweet, the sugar amount is considerably low compared to other versions, but ingredients can be adjusted to make it sweeter and with eggs. Here is the full recipe.
