Oh yeah, you guys had my back with team cake winning with an impressive 60% of the vote. I will say that terrible cake is truly terrible, but a well-done cake is sublime in a way that pie can never be. Sorry, pie-lovers, but it’s true. My late grandmother used to make this seven layer chocolate cake with ganache and strawberry preserves, and it was TO DIE FOR. It was so rich that you could only eat a teensy slice, even though you wanted the entire thing. I miss that cake, and sadly, no one in my family has even attempted to make it since she passed away.
I’m being fairly schizophrenic today and moving on to a subject completely unrelated to cake or pie. Although I guess you could say that a properly executed one was a pleasurable experience, just like a nicely done baked good. Oh, and dishy stories on said subject are more than welcome!
