The Wonder Cake From A Manhattan Bakery 30 Years Ago
by Patti
The "Wonder Cake" as it was known, was a dry pound cake with solid chunks of chocolate baked inside which formed a chocolate swirl. When I was a college student many years ago in the NYC area, my roommate's mother would serve this cake as a special treat, purchased at a bakery in Manhattan. I have never forgotten it. A rumor had it then that it was a favorite of Greta Garbo.
