The most AMAZING strawberry shortcake I’ve ever had! It was served at a party, and believe me when I’m telling you, people could not stop eating it! The layers of cake, cream, and strawberries just melted in my mouth. The cake was hearty yet light at the same time. To finish it off, a strawberry topping was poured over each piece as it was served. Just a big hunk of summer goodness! I had multiple servings:-). He’s a Broadway performer and baker! Send me an email at justdessertsnyc@yahoo.com if you want more info about his home cake-making business here in NYC. xoxoBrownie

After a fantastic dinner, I asked about their Read More »
