Caramel Apple Cake Filling Recipe
Caramel Apple Cake – Inspired by the popular Rocky Mountain Chocolate Apple Pie Caramel Apple, my new Caramel Apple Cake is made up of caramel cake layers, apple pie filling, salted caramel, white chocolate buttercream, and a light dusting of brown sugar and cinnamon.
The other day in one of my cake classes, someone asked me how I come up with my cake flavors. She said, “do you just eat other dessert and think, ‘this can be cake’ ?”. Yes! That’s exactly what I do! It’s how I came up with my Tonight Show Cake, my Everything but the Kitchen Sink Cake, my Peach Crisp Cake, and so many more.
I get so much joy and satisfaction from creating cake flavors that will remind you of other non-cake desserts. I love when it works out as perfectly as this Caramel Apple Cake, inspired by the Apple Pie Caramel Apple by Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory.

This cake is made up of caramel cake layers, apple pie filling, white chocolate buttercream and homemade caramel. A few things you’ll want to make sure you have on hand that might not already be in your pantry:
For the caramel cake, it will be very important to mix the butter, sugar, eggs and dulce de leche really well. We’re talking, beat these ingredients on medium-high speed for abut 3 to 5 minutes, until the mixture is light and fluffy, lighter in color, and almost double in volume. You should also always be using the paddle attachment with cake batter. The batter should look smooth and silky.

IMPORTANTFor chocolate buttercream specifically, remember to heat the cream and chocolate together first. You’ll then stir the mixture until it becomes a smooth ganache. Once the ganache has cooled slightly, you’ll add the mixture to the butter and continue making the buttercream according to instructions.
Alright, time to pick those apples and get backing. This Caramel Apple Cake is going to the perfect addition to your Fall gatherings!
I long ago ditched box mixes in pursuit of melt-in-your-mouth, to-die-for flavor combinations, fillings and textures. I believe cake must be decadent, life-changing and worthy of celebration! And I believe anyone should be able to bake that kind of cake – and I’m here to teach you just that!A couple weeks ago I made a salted caramel apple cake, and the real star of the show was its apple cake filling!

The cake recipe was pretty detailed, so I wanted to make a post sharing just the apple filling. I also hope this will encourage people to get creative and use this filling with their favorite cake and cupcake recipes.
There isn’t really a single right answer to this question! I personally love using Honeycrisp or Granny Smith apples in this apple cake filling recipe, but that’s mostly because they’re my favorite apples to eat.
In general, as long as it’s a firmer apple variety (like Red Delicious, Gala, Pink Lady, Fuji, Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Golden Delicious) it should work great!

You can even mix and match the apples you use in this recipe! The most important thing is that you use 4 large, firm apples that weigh about 800 grams or about 1.75 lbs.
If you’ve ever tried to add a bunch of jam between the layers of a tall cake, you know that you need a thick filling or else your cake layers slide all over the place!
You also need a cake filling to be thick to ensure it won’t ooze out the sides of your cake once it’s stacked and frosted.

Even with the help of a piped ring of frosting (i.e. a frosting dam), the filling can still ooze out as the cake settles.
It ends up being just about as thick as jelly. The secret to making this apple cake filling so thick is cornstarch!
Using a slurry rather than adding cornstarch directly into the filling makes it so much easier to incorporate the cornstarch into the filling.

Whenever I make fruit filling, I love to incorporate a bit of fresh lemon juice. I think it really enhances the flavor of the apples, and adds a bright pop of flavor.

This apple cake filling can be made up to a week in advance if stored in an airtight container in the fridge.

I’m trying to find the salted caramel apple cake but the hyperlinks in this blog seem to be broken. The link in the blog text takes me to a raspberry cake and the “suggested post” for apple pie cake takes me to a post for gluten free cupcakes. Is the apple cake post still available?
