Let’s Eat Cake, A Poem
Torte or Layer
Sheet cake or Pound
Whatever you call it,
The choices are many and
The flavors abound.
Fill it with pudding or custard,
Whipped cream or a jam,
Spike it with whiskey or rum,
Candied fruit or a plum,
You’ll have a nice treat,
When the holidays come.
Top it with icing or frosting,
A glaze or ganache,
Whip up a nice fondant,
Some fluffy meringue,
Or how about a coconut handful or two,
All of these,
Add to our delicious milieu.
Thanks to bakers world-wide
A great dessert variety, for us to enjoy.
A cake for every celebration, occasion or mood.
From Cheese Cake, Red Velvet to even one called Angel Food,
The hardest decision now is one slice or two?
Let us eat CAKE!
