I used to really LOVE cannolis. To the point I said when I got married I wouldn't want a wedding cake, but just for everyone to get a cannoli. But I've never been married and now am a little eh on them.
The best cake I ever ate was at my brother's bar mitzvah at a country club in Woodbury, New York. No idea what type it was. I'll never taste it again. A couple of years ago I had carrot cake for the first time and thought I'd hate it, but kind of loved it. So now carrot cake is my new favorite. |

I bet you are really fun. |
My mom's chocolate cake with chocolate icing and a homemade marshmallow middle layer with pecans. She has passed away now, and I've never made it for myself. |
Some people don’t like cake |
That's an every day food, not a birthday dessert. |
Straight up white/white birthday cake with sugar icing. Bakery kind, not grocery store kind. It's hard to find these that have actual sugary icing and not fluffy. But it's possible! |
Have you heard of the cannoli bar/stations at weddings? Or a roving cannoli server? They pipe in the cream right there and add your favorite toppings to the edge. If you do get married, I think you should do this ![]() |

There are so many other desserts that aren’t cake. |
A really good fairly dense, but not too dense, moist chocolate cake with real homemade frosting that is not too thin nor too thick. |
What kind of cake was it? |
Coconut layer cake with boiled icing with coconut. |
A local (non DC) bakery makes this chocolate hazelnut fancy torte dealie. Its like 8 different layers of various things, but it all reminds me of a fererro rocher. One of the layers is like a crispy thin piece that is like the crispy layer of the rocher. Ugh its so delicious. My bday is at the end of the month and I already know this is on its way ![]() It's pricey for the size, but its so rich I only eat a little at a time and it lasts a while. |
