Duff Goldman’s Date Night Handbag Cake – Valentine’s Day Dessert 💝🎂

A designer handbag — but make it cake. Chocolate, raspberry, and total Valentine drama in the best way.

About the Cake

This cake is what happens when couture meets chocolate and I am absolutely here for it. Duff Goldman created this Date Night Handbag Cake just for Valentine’s Day, and it looks like a luxury purse but slices like a dream dessert.

Inside is a rich dark chocolate layer cake filled with dark chocolate ganache and raspberry buttercream, all wrapped in bold red fondant. Each one is handmade and hand-decorated at Duff’s Charm City Cakes atelier in Baltimore, so every cake is slightly unique — like edible art.

It serves about 6–8 people and weighs approximately 4.8 pounds, so it’s perfect for sharing (or not — I won’t judge).
