"We’re not sure if Maie Day’s “world famous” three-layer chocolate cake is as famous as they claim, but we did tell a cousin living abroad about it, so there might be some truth to the story. Chocolate cake might not sound like anything special, but it’s seasonal toppings—like vanilla chantilly, sesame-seed crumble, caramel, blackberry powder, cayenne, and grilled lemon—that transform this slice from a sweet little finish into something worth seeking out on its own." - nicolai mccrary
