Celebrate the Season With This Festive Cake From Loria Stern
The Herbal Wreath Vanilla Spice Cake
This time of year, we’re always eager for a crowd-pleasing dessert to steal the show. Enter this Herbal Wreath Vanilla Spice Cake from Loria Stern. The vanilla spice pairs perfectly with the tahini buttercream frosting, which is delicately layered atop in such a way that it’s certain to elevate even the simplest of gatherings.
Always eager to add artistry to her creations, Loria made sure to layer on fresh and pressed herbs like rosemary, thyme, rue, and chervil to the top to tie the festive scene together with ease.
The beauty of this cake is the ease and speed with which it all comes together. Even better: you can prep the buttercream and batter in less than 20 minutes before letting the little ones decorate.


"This cake is the perfect addition to any seasonal celebration. It's festive, delicious, and elevated in every way."
The Green Rosemary Cucumber Julep
The secret to a great holiday cocktail is versatility. Loria’s Green Rosemary Cucumber Julep is delicious as a cocktail or mocktail, which makes it perfect for all forms of hosting. Equally refreshing and festive, this drink is a dream for any party-goer who’s wanting to celebrate the season without veering too far off into the expected.
Jenni likes to make batches of cocktails (or mocktails) so guests can serve themselves with ease—just add an ice bucket and festive cocktail napkins and let your guests do the rest.
