It's a triple layer cake with chocolate buttercream frosting but instead of frosting between the layers it had whipped cream- so it was chocolate cake, whipped cream, chocolate cake, whipped cream, chocolate cake with chocolate butter cream frosting on the sides and top- a FABULOUS cake.

r102 Here's one from the BronzeAge(Gay) I like trifle, make it sometimes for a holiday dessert. You can use various cakes as a base, but I prefer to make an orange chiffon cake for it. Tear it into chunks, layer it with: custard, whipped cream, sliced almonds, raspberry preserves, fresh raspberries, usually I include a sweetish alcohol( sherry, fruit brandy, marsala, etc) Prepare several hours ahead of service so everything melds, use a tall, clear glass bowl to really show it off. It's always a spectacular presentation.

You can vary the cake, preserves, nuts, fruit, alcohol(if using) I was served a Chocolate Cherry trifle once and it was outstanding. I'll bet a Mango Trifle with macadamia nuts, mango curd and fruit, coconut and peach liqueur would be memorable.

Make one of your choice and call it by its Italian name: Zuppa Inglese(English Soup)

R137 is from Michigan. Metro Detroit? I lived there 38 years ago. Bumpy cake brings memories of my Gramps. He's visit up on Saturday afternoon and bring us jellied orange slices, and a bumpy cake from Sanders bakery. We ate Sanders Ice Cream, and our favorite treat was a cream puff hot fudge Sundae with Sander's hot fudge. Detroit had a lot of great local stuff, Sanders, Awrey's Bakery, Better Made Potato Chips, Vernor's Ginger Ale, Faygo, and my parents always talked about what a wealthy city it was back in the day when the auto barons like Henry Ford II walked the earth. World class symphony, and a world class at museum.

There's a local grocery that sells double slices of its own version of Sander's bumpy cake, which is a devil's food sheet cake topped with thick lines of cream and covered with chocolate glaze. If you eat the whole thing it's 700 calories. It's like a spa treatment for the senses.

I was craving Bumpy Cak so badly during Covid that I attempted to make one myself. It looked horrible but tasted delicious!

My grandparents would tell me many stories of how great the city used to be. It was pretty depressing growing up in a city that was majorly f’ed up & in decline.
