Full menu

Cake flavors

Almond wedding cakeWhite cake perfumed with almond extract and finely ground almonds, delicate and fragrant, long a classic choice for wedding tiers.
MarbleVanilla and chocolate batters swirled together in the pan, so each slice reveals its own ribbon pattern and two flavors.
ConfettiVanilla cake with rainbow sprinkles baked into the batter, leaving cheerful colored specks throughout; a long-standing birthday party favorite.
Spiced carrotDense, moist spice cake with grated carrot, cinnamon and chopped walnuts, sturdy enough to stack into multiple tiers.

Fillings

Cookies & cream mousseWhipped vanilla mousse folded with crushed chocolate sandwich cookies, giving a speckled look and soft crunch between layers.
Cannoli creamSweetened ricotta with mini chocolate chips and a hint of orange zest, borrowed from the Sicilian pastry shop.
Raspberry preservesTart, seedy raspberry jam spread between layers; it cuts through rich buttercream and leaves a vivid ribbon of color in each slice.
Lemon curdSilky, tangy curd cooked from lemon juice, eggs and butter, adding a bright, puckery layer to vanilla or almond cake.

Frostings & finishes

Ganache dripGlossy chocolate poured over a chilled cake so it runs down the sides in controlled drips, a popular modern finish.
Semi-naked finishThin scrape of buttercream that lets the cake layers peek through, giving a rustic look often dressed with fresh flowers or fruit.
American buttercreamWhipped butter and powdered sugar frosting, sweet and fluffy, easy to tint and pipe into borders, rosettes and lettering.
Swiss meringue buttercreamSatiny frosting made by whipping cooked egg whites and sugar with butter; less sugary and smooth enough for razor-sharp edges.
