Birthday Cake

anonymous

I need a simple birthday cake, nothing fancy, but just a good solid cake. And it would be cool if I could find a place that could do some cartoon icing decorations...

I was looking for a place in the North Slope area. I was thinking about Cousin John's maybe?

the Dominicans make the best birthday cake!
nothing fancy just a good solid moist vanilla cake,
the frosting is made with like a hundred egg whites,
so that it's firm and light and leaves a white moustache on your lips
they like to make it with a pineapple or guava filling, but if this is not your thing, you can tell them to just skip it
and dominican cake is cheap too!

i can't remember the exact location of a dominican bakery but i know there's one,
i gotta imagine there's one on 5th ave in the teens{15th-19th street or so}
does anyone else know of one?
my corner bodega sells dominican cake in slices, i'll ask him for the bakery name

beware: don't go into a mexican bakery for dominican cake
if you see a mexican flag anywhere, say thank you and walk out

I got a b'day cake from the Harlem Cake Man on Fulton Street. It was really really good and he does lovely decoration. I forget the cross street but he's on the same block as Night of the Cookers but across the street.
