With its old-school layer cakes and sprinkle-clad butter cookies, this Andersonville fixture delivers nostalgia, one treat at a time. Among the shop’s best sellers is the Princess Torte, three layers of light-as-air yellow cake separated by strata of whipped cream and vanilla custard and wrapped in sweet marzipan. Want just a taste? Many of the bakery’s cakes are available by the slice.
