Why this cake:
My favorite sweets are often the simplest ones. Thoughtful, balanced, never too rich or too sweet. The kind you can have a generous slice of and really take your time with.
The beauty of this cake is that it can keep you company at any point in the day: as breakfast, an afternoon pick-me-up, or dessert to close out the night. There really isn’t much better than a good cake with good cream.
Ingredients & Sourcing:
Carolina Ground Shirley Soft Red Winter Wheat
Asheville, North Carolina
About the grain:
Shirley Red Wheat, soft and delicate with nutty sweetness, was developed by Virginia Tech for adaptability and resilience.
