Layer Cake Flavors


Cookies and Dreams
Ask our bakers to choose their favorite chocolate cake on the menu: this is it! Fluffy chocolate cake is topped with a chocolate cookie-studded mascarpone whip. We pour dark chocolate ganache over the whip, and finish with more cookie crumbles — because why wouldn’t you?

Hot Fudge Sundae
This cake is a happy party of delicious fun. We fill a fluffy chocolate cake with rich, silky ganache and swirl on a small mountain of whipped frosting. Then we top it with a generous pour of dark chocolate ganache, crown it with glazed cherries, and toss on an exuberant handful of playful sprinkles!

Chocolate Salted Caramel
Chocolate, caramel, and salt make a tremendous flavor trio! We fill our fluffy chocolate cake with golden caramel and top it with creamy chocolate buttercream frosting. A touch of French flour de sel adds sparkle and a subtle crunch.

Sweet Jane
This is a simple vanilla cake in its perfect state. Moist vanilla cake is elevated with a heavenly hint of almond/vanilla buttercream frosting. Our Sweet Jane is our most popular guest at weddings and children’s birthday parties.

TBT Ho Ho
Meet the TBT best-selling cake created for our brand; it’s our homemade take on a classic Hostess Ho Ho. We fill fluffy chocolate cake with fresh whipped cream and dunk that baby in dark chocolate ganache. Hostess Ho Ho, meet your delicious TBT match!

Tres Leches
We bake memories of Latin delicacies in this delicious favorite. Our vanilla cake is soaked in a mix of milks, topped with whipped frosting, and flaked dark chocolate for Latin flavor in every bite.

Red Velvety
You’ll find classic ingredients in our red velvet cake recipe: vanilla batter with cocoa powder and a dash of white vinegar deliver iconic red velvet flavor. We add silky cream cheese frosting and velvety crumbles for a stunning taste experience.

Strawberry Fields
There’s an iconic song inspiring this strawberry dream of a cake. Our famed vanilla cake is filled with fresh strawberries and topped with a cloud of almond/vanilla buttercream frosting. You’ll hum Strawberry Fields Forever between each bite.

White Wedding
We elevate crowd-pleasing vanilla cake to a wedding-worthy status with vanilla bean pastry cream filling. Top that heavenly goodness with fluffy almond/vanilla buttercream, and this stunning great will grace the most discerning occasion. This is our Bakery Manager Katie’s ultimate favorite flavor!

Classic Carrot Cake (gluten-friendly)
Our moist carrot cake is bursting with carrots, toasted walnuts and spices. Silky cream cheese frosting tops this carroty charmer.

Lemon Drop
This delicate lemon delight is perfect for baby showers and garden parties. Fragrant vanilla cake is filled with tart lemon curd, swirled with lemon cream cheese frosting, and finished with one perfect edible flower. It’s summertime in a bite.
How to Serve Your
Layer Cake

We use quality, all-natural ingredients for the most delicious flavor experience. Our bakers make all of our cakes, frostings, and fillings from scratch, fresh to order, and without preservatives. Our cakes must remain refrigerated until you are ready to enjoy them.
- Remove your cake from the refrigerator 30 (in summer) – 60 (in winter) minutes before serving. You want to give your cake enough time to come to room temperature. (Your cake can sit out for up to 8 hours.)
- Use a clean, sharp knife to cut your cake.
- ENJOY!
Remember to refrigerate any leftovers!
