And Booze Cake It Is!

Thanks to the hard work of the Alabama Legislature, our state now has an official cake…the Lane Cake, aka the Booze Cake or the Bourbon Cake. The chef who created the Lane Cake was Mrs. Emma Rylander Lane of Clayton, Alabama, who wrote an extremely popular cook book in the late 1800s.

One would think our legislature would have better things to do at this point in time than establish a state cake, but even that is not the most worrying detail of the whole matter. There was even a debate concerning the cake. Why? Were there lobbyists for Crocker Coconut Cake or Deen Dumpling Doodles?
