Easter lamb cake (known as agnuszek or baranek wielkanocny in Polish) is a traditional Eastern European dessert
baranek wielkanocny can also be made out of plain butter.
It is also popular in Germany.

Roman Catholic, German
North western Ohio in case that matters. I think our family started making the lamb cake in the 1950s

I got it the tradition (and the cake mold) from my grandmother, born in England and immigrated to the US in the 20s.
Ha ha yes I meant the cake made in the shape of the lamb, for Easter! Was your grandmother Roman Catholic, or Anglican or something else?
Anglican but later converted to Catholicism. I don't know how or why she had the mold or made the cake.

Origin and geography, posters!
I am intrigued because I did not grow up with the lamb cake -- I first learned about it from Joy of Cooking (written by someone of German ancestry who was born in St Louis).

my grandmother used to do this, though not regularly, and I've done it a couple times. We're died in the wool generic American of mixed (northern euro) background, protestant. We're the type of people who will see something cute in a cookbook and decide to make it.

Let's see if we can figure out where these things hail from. Let's just focus on the ethnicity of the ancestor who gave you (or your mother etc) the tradition:
My grandma, in Alberta, Canada, made this every year. She was a Polish Roman Catholic and was born in around 1887. She was from a village that thanks to moving borders, is now in the Western Ukraine. At the time it was an area called Galicia and controlled by the Austrio-Hungarian Empire.
Ok who and where did you all inherit your lamb cake tradition from?
