Colossal Cake

We have team lunches (on the company dime, whoo-hoo!) reasonably often at b5media. Sometimes it’s dim sum, sometimes it’s shwarma, sometimes it’s pub food. Last week, we ended up at Wayne Gretzky’s, where we saw this colossal cake in the desserts display:


Damn, that’s one seriously stacked cake!

Naturally, we had to order a slice of this sucker. From what we could see, it’s a tricky cake to slice and carrying it to the table is a two-handed operation:


My coworkers Darcie Vany and Jeremy Wright marvelling at the slice.

The slice fed 7 people quite nicely, and one can be yours for the low price of CDN$13.99. You might want to drop by Gretzky’s and get one if you’re entertaining hockey fans from out of town.

  • I once got a slice of that cake and, to tell you the truth, it wasn't that good-tasting. I wouldn't get it again (plus now they discovered my allergy, so I couldn't get it even if I wanted to).
