After indulging in a delicious Father’s Day brunch, marathoning father-focussed movies, and just celebrating dear-old dad, it makes sense to end the day on a sweet note — literally. And although there are plenty of treats to make Dad on his special day, there’s something about a Father’s Day cake that says “I love you so much and am so thankful for you.” Maybe it’s spending so much time by the oven in the middle of summer. Maybe is the work that goes into icing a multi-layered masterpiece. Whatever it is, baking Dad a cake on Father’s Day will mean so much to him, even if you’re not the world’s best baker.Whether he likes traditional flavors like chocolate and vanilla, or is into more fruity flavors like lemon and strawberry, there’s a cake on this list for every dad’s pallet.
