True, I live in NYC with a worrrrrrrrld of dessert options around me: painstakingly-prepared pastries, luscious layer cakes, cookies and puddings and custards and ice creams-- you name it. And true, I can even bake my OWN damn cake and THAT will be sublime! These treats are all tasty and I enjoy every bite, but when it comes to the plain old sheet cake at D'Agostino's (yes, the grocery store chain in NYC), I am powerless to resist. There is something about the fluffiness of the cake and the killer frosting that sucks me in and has me craving it randomly all year long.
A friend of mine shares this obsession and often has these cakes for her birthday parties. When we worked together, we did our best to make THESE the cakes at office parties (mwah ha haaa). I love this friend and would come to the party anyway, but I won't lie--I definitely put the cake at motivating factor #2!
Damn you, D'Agostino's...why are your cakes so TASTY!?!?!?
Is there a weird, not-homemade dessert or snack that makes you weak in the knees/tastebuds??? Follow @Lkpnyc
YES! There is a cake at our store (Publix) called Raspberry Elegance. It has its own Facebook page which makes me laugh but I'm a fan. The FROSTING MY GOD THE FROSTING! And then when you eat it cold!? it's unbelievable seriously. I lust over it. I feel your pain. LOL!!!! I'm so glad you linked up!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou can TRUST that the next time I find a Publix, I am tracking down that cake! I live for raspberries, and 'elegance?' Fantastic!!!
