How to make this Peach Cake
I used my favorite vanilla cake recipe for the cake layers here as I wanted the homemade peach filling to stand out. The peach filling is actually very simple to make — 4 simple ingredients, about 20mins, and you’re done.
Peach Frosting
For the peach frosting I simply added some peach liqueur to it. Ideally though, if you can find some freeze-dried peaches to grind into a powder and add that, I think it would be an amazing flavor addition! I would add about 1/4 cup or so of the powder to the frosting. Note that it will tint the frosting pink though.

This is only the second ombre cake I’ve ever made. The first one I made was earlier in my blogging days, and it didn’t turn out as clean and pretty as I’d hoped. I needed to redeem myself, and what better way than with a pretty peach ombre frosting?

Picking peaches with my daughter and watching her create a peach/blueberry muffin inspired me to make this really nice and flavorful coffee cake with a tender crumb. Peaches and bananas are great together. The aroma while baking is heavenly. Not really restricted to Sunday mornings!
Color Theory: Peach
When talking about the different kinds of colors available to us, we first have to understand the core concepts of color theory.
Peach in Design
Taking things a step further, we want to understand how different colors interact with our emotions.
Warm vs. Cool Colors
On one end of the spectrum, we have options like red, orange, and yellow. Since these are found naturally in fire, they are considered to be warm, almost hot.
Artwork
At its core, peach can represent the food from which it derives its name. When lightened to be less orange, it can seem more luxurious and calming.
Interior Design
Many upscale restaurants like peach because it reminds people of food, but it also has a classy element to it as well.
