Ever take a bite of a cake and say to yourself, “Something’s wrong?” You know, the cake part’s fine, but the icing has that Oleo taste, as if it were made from rocket fuel (Twinkies actually are). Or the icing is fine, but the cake part is dry, like someone just let all the air out. Donna’s Cakes gets cake and icing right. Synchronicity. The cake is moist yet firm, but the real standout is the icing. All butter cream. You can eat it by itself, I do. Donna has been creating masterworks for 18 years. She started by taking a class in a cake-maker’s home and she did the same before opening this storefront in quiet West Roxbury. Give Donna an idea, and she’ll make it reality. How about a beehive cake with bees swarming around the hive? My four-year old cousin got treated on his b-day with a construction site cake. The toy bulldozer pushed a pile of dirt (chocolate cake crumbs). Now, thanks to technology, she can even put a computerized image on your cake if you so desire.
