OP here. I'd forgotten I started this thread!

I did know you can order the jelly roll cakes and my parents still do. I don't care for them, but love the nostalgia and the aesthetic of seeing them all lined up in the window in red and green paper (or, do they do that anymore)?

I love their buttercream simple cakes. Miss them!

PP: Yep, you can order the jelly cake....

Remember the jelly roll cake? I seem to recall someone saying that they still sold them, maybe ordered on line somewhere. I can't say that I loved the jelly roll cake, but certainly nostalgic.

I remember Shuman's, although I never bought their cakes. My favorite cakes in Old Town are from Bittersweet. Not cheap, but moist, moist, moist.

All of my childhood cakes were from there and they were excellent.

Now it's a Firehook. I think Shuman's has been gone for 10 years.

Anyone know where similar cakes are around here? Definitely not into grocery store cakes...
