24k golden throne cake, red wine chocolate cake, and other delights that can make Mother’s Day a lot sweeter

It can be quite tricky to make Mother’s Day different every year. 

Moms easily love and appreciate the little things we do for them, but of course we still want to make each celebration unforgettable. This time, why not change things up? Instead of the usual cakes and delectable treats, go for extraordinary desserts that can let you score some brownie points for thoughtfulness. Here are some sweet ideas.

This 24k Golden Throne Cake (P4,800) by Chef Kerri’s Baking Room is perfect for a queen like mom. The 9x6” dessert—fully coated with 24k edible gold leaf and topped with a non-edible crown—is made with moist Belgian chocolate cake and bittersweet ganache. Sounds (and looks) delicious, right?

If she loves ending the day with booze, she’d definitely devour this red wine chocolate cake. Made with a kick of red wine, this indulgent dessert by Chocalot Batch doubles the fun with the same magical ingredient in its chocolate ganache on top. For P319, it can come in a Mother’s Day box with two servings of hot chocolate mix, notecard, and a bunch of dried flowers.

Add a personal touch to your Mother’s Day gift with these watercolor cookies. This lovely kit by Swell Sweets Cake Lab is available in two sets: Love, Smile, Dream and Inspire, Bloom, Explore. Each box contains six floral-themed cookies, an edible watercolor palette, and a paintbrush.

Not into sweets? You can get her something like this lovely caviar cake with a graze upgrade, salmon, and chocolate-covered strawberries by Caviar Cake Manila. The Instagram store is accepting same-day and rush orders.

While the season is hot, let her keep her cool with Alt Scoops’ limited edition Mother’s Day collection. Available in strawberry (P375) and dark chocolate (P350) on The Vegan Grocer, you can even take it to the next level by personalizing its container.
