  • About

I am a total sucker for any layer cake. At my restaurant Adele’s in Nashville, I have a coconut cake that is light and ethereal and thoroughly addictive. At Barbuto, we generally like simpler desserts, and this cake exemplifies that philosophy. Try strawberries from the local farmer’s market. The season is short, so be on the lookout. Of course, one can use blackberries, raspberries, or blueberries, or a nice combo thereof.
