You can indulge in a number of creative cake/dessert martinis courtesy Pinnacle Cake Vodka here.
I followed the Lolita recipe, but substituted cake vodka for vanilla, and Godiva® chocolate liqueur for the almond liqueur, omitting the lemon zest.
I dipped the rim of the glass with some vanilla frosting that I had left over, added sprinkles, and a generous dollop of whipped cream~ enough to hold a candle.
The Pinnacle Birthday Cake Martini recipe also calls for 1/2 teaspoon of white cake mix, which might make the martini taste more “cakey” :)
Birthday Cake in a glass~ not just for 21-year-olds :)
Light the candle and serve with Happy Birthday Wishes!
Mary….I LOVE your Birthday Martini recipe…I love that you substituted the almond for Godiva Chocolate liqueur…I am so trying this!….Wonderful presentation as always….Have a great weekend!!! Glad you had a great time with your college roommates!
First of all, Happy Belated Birthday! Secondly, YUM! That martini looks delicious! I’d not heard of the Lolita martini glasses before, but I love that they have recipes on them. I had heard of the cake flavored vodka and have wondered about it. Did it REALLY taste like cake? What a fun celebration.
Belated birthday wishes, Mary.
I love this idea, will have to look for supplies when we visit SC in October.
The cocktail glasses are fab! A must have purchase for sure.
You didn’t tell me it was your birthday! Happy, Happy Belated Birthday Wishes!!!! A birthday celebration with long time girlfriends is a wonderful idea. Love the special stems and the recipe sounds delish. I need to make a shopping list. ;-)
Enjoy your weekend, birthday girl! ~ Sarah

How cute!!!! I’m a big martini girl. I like mine with just vodka with a kiss of vermouth, but this would be a fun dessert for me. (Does that sound like a seasoned alcoholic talking? ;-)) Happy belated birthday!!!!!!!!
Mary, this is so clever! I have never thought to have a cake in a glass. What an unusual “twist” to celebrations.
