The Good, the Bad & the Ugly: Piece of Cake (The Good)
Source: Portland Mercury, March 24, 2005.
In Sellwood, Piece of Cake is giving that neighborhood an old-timey quaintness that you're just not gonna get from nearby
Mike's Drive-In or Wong's King Chinese take-out.
Piece of Cake boldly states they offer "delicious cakes and health choices." Doesn't seem like the two can go together,
but they do. Their list of vegan wheat-free cakes is considerable, including Irish oat and apple raisin. The carrot cake
is moist and tasty, but the best of the bunch is the Black Forest. They round out the offerings with vegan wheat-free
walnut praline and almond praline tortes and bars. Need to satisfy your sweet tooth without gluten? Boom! Gluten-free
chocolate cake. Need something sugar-free? Bam! Sugar-free chocolate cake, and sugar-free/wheat-free chocolate brownies.
Of course, if your diet can handle just a good ol' fashion cake, your choices grow exponentially. You can't go wrong with
any of 'em, but the marionberry poppyseed and banana pineapple will definitely make your grandmother jealous.
