More Cooks Country adventures, this time Stained Glass cake! I opened up the Cook's Country 2009 Annual
, and there was this bright cake shining back out at me, and it was so colorful I had to make it!!Apparently this cake was used in Jello ads back in the 1950's and was something of a retro favorite. I love a good bit of Americana and when it's tasty as well as fun and kitschy it has to happen!
I took one to our friends house for 4th of July and it was a big hit. Right now I'm trying to come up with a recipe for an elegant miniature rose flavored version for tea parties?
Here are a couple of vintage broken glass cake pictures from the late 50's...
