Gastronome Wednesday ~ Let Them Eat CAKE!

A delicious lemon cake with vanilla bean cream filling and butter cream frosting is my Achilles heel! It doesn’t matter where I am, what’s going on in my life, whether I’m dieting, or getting ready for a special event, if someone is serving cake I’m there! I can’t resist a big hunk of a deliciously sugary, billowy soft slice of heaven. And with the remarkable cake artists out there incorporating their talents with great recipes I don’t see me giving up my Jones for it any time soon.

I list 5 great places to indulge in the delicious desserts in this week’s installment of Gastronome Wednesday ~ Let Them Eat CAKE!

Gastronome Wednesday ~ Let Them Eat CAKE!

Ele Makes Cakes

Located on Washington Blvd in Los Angeles, California is a small shop where cakes in any form imaginable are created by its proprietor and namesake Ele. Her artistic ability is endless and if you can think of it she can create it. From wedding to bachelor cakes each unique design brings all kinds of smiles.

  Dacapo’s Pastry Café

Opened in 1994 by identical twin sisters Dacapo’s Pastry Café is home to some of the best cakes in Houston, Texas. My favorite aspect of these cakes…they rarely use Fondant. Buttercream is the way to go and, in my opinion, most delicious!
