*NEW* Peppermint Cake Slice – $7.79

White cake soaked in peppermint simple syrup, layered with chocolate ganache, peppermint mousse, and peppermint crunch, and finished with buttercream, holiday sprinkles, and mint candy

This has an overwhelming peppermint flavor. The cake is a little dry. It’s just average but if you’re a fan of peppermint, you might like this.

*NEW* Gingerbread Cake Slice – $7.79

Gingerbread cake with cream cheese filling and gingerbread crunch finished with buttercream, glaze and a chocolate gingerbread person

This cake was much better. It looks cute and it has a heavy gingerbread flavor. The frosting isn’t overpowering, the cake is moist, and the slight crunch texture is great.
