What was spectacular (besides the very high prices) was the parade of customers picking up BIG expensive cakes to take home or the office at 11:30 AM on a Thursday. In 30 minutes they probably sold 12 cakes.

Like many others (Hoeny Baked Ham comes to mind) it just might be a temporary fad.

Honey Baked Ham is still pretty popular here, they do a brisk lunch business at the one on 441.
