Who said Southern Californians were full of body-conscious, food-shunning waifs? Eat your heart out LA: SusieCakes in Brentwood is bringing back homey sugary carbohydrate heaven in the form of popular cupcakes, buttercream frostings, moist layer cakes, pies, cookies, and bars that your grandma once baked. Joining the retro trend in baked goods and reminiscent decadence, SusieCakes offers $3 frosting-filled cupcakes in 10 different traditional and retro flavors such as orange creamsicle. Cake varieties include strawberry chiffon, red velvet, and carrot cake. Custom layer cakes can be ordered as well. For the kids, there’s cake-decorating at the counter with a rainbow of colored sprinkles available to make a mess of before eating. Fortunately in today’s society, being messy in the kitchen means shopping at SusieCakes and letting them do the clean-up.
