"Although I don’t think I’m a dessert person, I’m easily persuaded when I see a dessert as fanciful as the cake I spied through the window of Bartavelle last weekend. I did briefly, jokingly refer to my purchase as part of the poop swoop effect, A Thing my Eater colleague has coined, but it does feel like a disservice to reference the word “poop” in the same sentence as this pink confection. (So I’ll stop, promise.) This cake by Nellie Stark was dreamy with its delicately flavored strawberry frosting, and the cake was perfect and light. As if one needed another reason to visit Bartavelle, the seasonal desserts are compelling enough on its own." - Eater Staff
