    Just a perfect Key Lime Pie with whipped cream. It's my favorite.

  • catmommy9  on  January 7, 2017

    Either strudel or Danish.

    Honest-to-goodness Italian rum cake. The one I remember wasn't very sweet. I've never tasted that same kind of filling or frosting since. It had sides covered with slivered almonds. The frosting may have simply been whipped cream, but the filling was some sort of firm custard with a very unique flavor – again, not very sweet. So yummy, though! That's the best a 49 yo's memory can do, from a cake eaten at four yo.
