Oh, that one! I've never tried it. It might be nice to pick one up for a post-Ottawa Marathon party!

I've never tried! Maybe I should take a crack at it! Though someone with a Costco membership would have to buy me a sample cake so that I have a prototype to work with... :shifty: 8)

i'm easily influenced! :oops: picked one up for father's day dessert. 12 thumbs up for sure. Lightning has already requested it for her birthday cake (in december!!! :lol:).

i noticed in the ingredients that it said cream cheese. i'm assuming it's in the white part? i couldn't really taste it, but lightning said she did. i might need another slice...

Dee, I never told you but at work, we celebrate everyone's birthday with cake (some days I'm hopeful it has nuts so I don't eat the calories). I got tuxedo cake for mine :lol:

I finally got to try this cake at my FIL's 70th birhtday party this weekend. I said, "Oh, boy! I know this cake!" It was good, but it had a hard time competing with all the other homemade desserts on the table. (It was a big potluck party.)
