Sur La Table Classic Marble Loaf Cake

Swirled through with Valrhona cocoa from France, Baked’s marble loaf cake is all about balance. It’s light, yet stands up to a good cup of coffee—and the cocoa portion adds delicious depth of flavor. This treat looks almost like a piece of modern art when sliced, making it a delicious way to dress up your dessert plate.

Baked NYC specializes in (even obsesses about) all manner of baking Americana. Baked started as a classic American bakery and café based in Red Hook, Brooklyn, where they create a vast array of cakes, cookies, pies, tarts, muffins, scones, bars, brownies and even more sweet treats. They’re not just bakers, they’re dessert archeologists—digging and researching and eating their way through the classic, regional desserts of America.
