Full menu

Cake flavors

Spiced carrotDense, moist spice cake with grated carrot, cinnamon and chopped walnuts, sturdy enough to stack into multiple tiers.
Gluten-free vanillaVanilla layer cake made from a rice and tapioca flour blend, with a soft, even crumb for guests who avoid wheat.
Classic vanilla beanFine-crumbed butter cake flecked with vanilla bean seeds; soft, moist and neutral enough to pair with almost any filling.
Devil's food chocolateDark chocolate cake made with cocoa and hot coffee, giving a deep, slightly bittersweet flavor and a very moist, tender crumb.

Fillings

Salted caramelSlow-cooked caramel with a pinch of sea salt, thick and buttery, often piped inside a buttercream dam to keep layers neat.
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.

Frostings & finishes

Stabilized whipped creamAiry, lightly sweetened cream held firm with a stabilizer; well suited to fruit cakes and kept refrigerated until serving.
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.
