The innovators at The Original Cakerie are excited to announce the launch of new Inspired by Happiness gluten-free two-layer cakes: Dreamin’ of Chocolate Two-Layer Dark & White Chocolate Cake and Dreamin’ of Strawberries Two-Layer White Chocolate Shortcake. Using premium all-natural ingredients such as real whipping cream and Belgian chocolate, the new deliciously moist and smooth-textured cakes are a premium dessert offering—whether or not your patrons demand a gluten-free option.

The secret to these incredible cakes is a perfectly textured sponge, made from a proprietary scratch recipe, and a flawless “build balance” of sponge-to-filling-to-icing ratio that can only be achieved by The Original Cakerie. The Dreamin’ of Chocolate Two-Layer Dark & White Chocolate Cake contains layers of dark chocolate sponge cake filled with Belgian white chocolate mousse and topped with ganache. The Dreamin’ of Strawberries Two-Layer White Chocolate Shortcake has a succulent strawberry filling made with real strawberry preserves along with Belgian white chocolate mousse nestled between layers of moist shortcake, topped with white chocolate mousse.

Demand for gluten-free options continues to grow, ranking #12 on the National Restaurant Association’s Top 20 Food Trends for 2015, and Datassential seeing gluten-free desserts grow by 92% from 2013–2014². The Inspired by Happiness product line, which also includes brownies and nut & seed bars for both foodservice and retail, is certified gluten-free by the Gluten-Free Certification Program with the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness.

Sue Ross, Vice President of Product Design and Innovation at The Original Cakerie, says, “Our Inspired by Happiness philosophy is the same as all other The Original Cakerie products—never compromise. If it’s not good enough, we don’t put it out. Through years of trial and error, we’ve been able to create amazing cakes that just happen to be gluten-free. Initial response has been, ‘Wow—you would never know,’ and that’s when we knew it was time to encourage others to see how good these new layer cakes taste.”
