According to the author, this is the traditional wedding cake for Appalachia. Each family attending the wedding would bring a layer and the bride would stack them into a cake. The more popular the wedding couple, the taller the cake. This is a spice cake with a plum jam-like filling and a vanilla glaze over the top. It was good.
YUM!!! You know I would have been totally competitive about the height of my wedding cake!
ReplyDeleteFor a second I thought they were waffles and I was so excited! I have to admit that I'm giving this cake the side eye. I'm not sure how I feel about spice cake with plum jam layers. Sounds like taste overkill to me but I would still give it a chance. :)
