to a pistol packin' patriot on his 26th
Our story begins several weeks ago, when a certain soon-to-be 26-year-old shyly placed his order for a certain very special birthday cake. The birthday boy was none other than my friend Eitan, he who occasionally wields imaginary pistols and shoots them off Wild West style at the dinner table, who, in the eighth grade, composed a heart-rending (and rhyme-tastic) song chronicling the sorry fate of "a baker who lived in a village, who went by the name of Mr. Concillage," he who repeatedly insists, "you really don't need to bake me a birthday cake," but with a hopeful smile and a mischievous gleam in his eye adds, "but if you do, can it have whipped cream?" and with that seals the deal.
It took some prodding, dear readers, but soon Eitan's request was on the table: something cold, moist, and custardy, with a generous helping of strawberries. Eitan, his wife, Julia, Eli, and I were in the midst of an after-dinner flop on our green sofas. Our bellies were full, but our brains soldiered on to consider just what this luscious-sounding cake might look like. The word "trifle" was tossed around, fingers were pointed at the strawberry-crowned cover of April's Gourmet magazine, and soon even Julia had come to terms with the idea of a dream birthday cake conspicuously lacking in chocolate.
After more Google searching than I'd like to admit, and a careful patching together of several promising recipes, I had my game plan. On Thursday night, I prepared the custard, and on Friday morning, I baked and split the cake layers, macerated the strawberries, whipped the cream and, hands literally atremble with excitement, put the whole, whopping thing together.
So far, so good.
Eli left work early so that he could assemble his contribution to the birthday dinner, something specially suited to Eitan's penchant for Mexican cuisine: a saucy, steaming bed of bean and cheese enchiladas. The thought of making our way over to Eitan and Julia's with both the enchiladas and a towering four-layer cake in tow tortured me with waking nightmares of a whipped cream and bean-spattered sidewalk. But never fear, we had a plan: Eli would prepare the filling and the sauce for his enchiladas and then drive me over to Eitan and Julia's with the cake securely resting on my lap. Then, we would turn around, Eli would bake his enchiladas, and we would head back out, right on schedule.
Given the fact that the cake had not even threatened to crumble or tear when I delicately split two layers into four, and that our punctiliously timed baking, cooking, and delivering schedule had, thus far, gone off without a hitch, something was bound to go wrong. It was only fair.
When Eitan saw the cake, his eyes grew gratifyingly wide. Julia made room in the fridge while Eli and Eitan slid the four-layered beast from the wax paper-lined baking sheet to a glass pedestal. (I only shrieked a little during the perilous transfer. I am very brave.) Eitan ran for his camera, and after a brief photo shoot, Eli and I were back on the road. We jumped from the car, and then it hit us:
Eli: Do you have the keys?
Jess: No, you have the keys.
Eli: No, I don't.
Jess: Yes, you do. I was holding the cake, you grabbed the keys, locked the front door, and stuffed them into your pocket.
Just how it came to be that our car keys and house keys were on two separate rings that evening is not all that interesting, so I'll spare you the details. But the clock was ticking, and there we were, unsure of how we were going to get into our building, let alone our apartment, bake the enchiladas, shower, and make it back to Eitan's birthday dinner on time. Finding our keys was also, ideally, a part of the plan.
We buzzed up to our neighbor Varina, and she let us in. I did such a good job, dear readers, of keeping my cool. I said not a word, rolled not an eyeball, and even smiled a little on our elevator ride up. (Though, I must admit, when Eli tried to give me a quick squeeze between the third and fourth floors, I quietly explained, "I'm not mad, but I don't want to hug you.") At Varina's place, Eli called Eitan and Julia, confirmed that they had our house keys, and sped off to retrieve them. Without missing a beat, I turned to Varina and shamelessly asked if I might shower. Varina extricated her cat from the tub, handed me a towel and, classy shower-lender that she is, even offered me a glass of wine. Good friends and neighbors are the best consolation at key-less times like these.
I leapt from the shower just as the front door of our apartment, one floor below, slammed shut. Still dripping, I hurriedly waved good-bye to Varina, flew down the stairs, and found Eli sliding the enchiladas into the oven. We arrived at Eitan and Julia's exactly 45-minutes late - not bad, all things considered.
Julia and Eitan were waiting for us, as were our friends Jonathan and Hila. When the six of us get together, hilarity always ensues. I mean, everyone-talking-at-once, howling-with-laughter hilarity. Last Friday night was no exception. Hila's account of a questionably sordid watch seller had us giggling in no time, especially the part about how, in a tense phone conversation with the perpetrator, she referred to Eli - my software developer husband - as her lawyer. From there, we moved on to crude hand gestures, enchilada sauce on the carpet, and some good old-fashioned marveling at our friendship and the luck that brought us together.
Finally, it was show time.
Eitan, despite it being his birthday, insisted that I do the honors. Smiling dopily, I cut the first slice. From the outside, the cake looked like a hulking puff of white, a few sliced strawberries perched almost comically atop the airy whipped cream. But the inside (oh the inside!) was an entirely different story. Four-layers, three pounds of strawberries, and a double recipe of custard different, to be exact. It was the most unbeautiful beautiful thing I have ever seen.
I ask you, has ugly ever looked so good?
I had worried that this cake would be cloyingly sweet, or that somehow or other the combination of cake, custard, berries, and cream would fall short. I need not have been concerned. Quieting the six of us is no easy task, but this cake left us in bliss-induced silence for at least a few gaping seconds. Then came the moaning, ("Ohhh... delicious...") the groaning, ("This cake is so rich!") and the scraping of the plates. Even Eli finished his slice, which is saying a lot. Jonathan decided against a second piece, but then went ahead and ate one anyway. There was finger licking, people. I was in heaven.
And, most importantly, Eitan got his cake, and ate it too. Happy birthday, friend.
Strawberry Custard Cassata Cake, or, Cleveland Cassata
Adapted from the Strawberry Chiffon Shortcake at Smitten Kitchen, and the Strawberry Cream Cake published in the June 1997 issue of Gourmet.
When Eitan first rattled off his list of ideal birthday cake qualities - cool, moist, custardy, and chock full of strawberries - a cake from my childhood in Cleveland immediately came to mind. Cassata cake. I began my research with a search for cassata cake recipes, but one after another they called for ricotta cheese instead of custard between the cake and strawberry layers. I was baffled. It was surely custard in the cakes that I remembered.
With a little more digging, I found that, while the majority of cassata cakes are indeed made with ricotta, Corbo's bakery in Cleveland has long produced a custard and strawberry cassata. Their Sicilian family recipe traces back 100 years. Apparently, this cake got the attention of Chef Mario Batali who, according to this site, said, "Corbo's Bakery has the best cassata I have tried in the USA." Other bakeries and supermarkets in the Cleveland area took their cues from Corbo's and made their cassatas with custard, too. To reproduce this Cleveland classic, I grabbed the cake from one recipe, the custard from another, and did my best to piece together a cassata the way I remember it.
Yes, this cake is a bit of a project in that it involves several components and takes some time to put together. But difficult it is not. To keep things manageable, you can make the custard and the cake the night before - it's best to refrigerate the cake before splitting the layers, anyway, to decrease the risk of breakage - and then just split the layers, macerate the berries, whip the cream, and assemble the next morning.
For the cake layers:
2 1/4 c. cake flour
1 1/4 and 1/4 cups sugar, divided
1 T. baking powder
1 t. salt
3/4 c. cold water
1/2 c. vegetable oil
1 t. lemon zest
1 t. vanilla extract
5 large egg yolks at room temperature
8 large egg whites at room temperature
1/2 t. cream of tartar
For the custard:
6 large egg yolks
1/2 c. sugar
2 c. half and half
3 T. cornstarch
For the macerated strawberries:
3 lb. strawberries
2 T. sugar
For the whipped cream:
2 c. chilled heavy cream
1 T. sugar
Make the custard: (you can do this step the night before)
Whisk together all of the custard ingredients in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-low heat, whisking constantly. Turn down the heat so that the mixture just simmers, and whisk until thick, 1-2 minutes. (The key words here are whisk constantly. The custard will tell you in no uncertain terms when it is done. It's like magic. One moment you can comfortably whisk your way through the liquid, and the next it is undeniably a thick custard. Cornstarch is neat like that.) Transfer the custard to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a round of wax paper, and cool. Then, chill custard, covered, for at least 3 hours, or up to 2 days.
Bake the cakes: (you can also do this step the night before)
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line the bottoms of two 9-inch round cake pans with lightly oiled (I use cooking spray) parchment paper . Otherwise, leave the pans ungreased.
Sift together the flour, 1 1/4 c. sugar, baking powder, and salt twice into a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, use an electric hand mixer on high speed to beat together the yolks, water, oil, zest, and vanilla until smooth. Stir into the flour mixture.
In another large bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Add the remaining 1/4 c. sugar, and beat on high until the peaks are stiff but not dry.
Using a rubber spatula (and a very light touch), fold about a quarter of the fluffy egg whites into the egg yolk mixture. Then fold in the remaining whites. Be very gentle. The goal here is to incorporate the egg whites without allowing them to deflate significantly. It is all of the air that has been whipped into the egg whites that will make for tall and light cake layers. As soon as the egg whites are no longer visible, stop folding.
Scrape the batter into the two prepared pans and spread evenly. (Here is a trick for making sure you have poured an equal amount of batter into each pan: Grab two toothpicks and stick one into the center of each batter-filled pan. Then, pull them out and see if the amounts of batter on the picks line up.) Bake for approximately 35 minutes, until the top springs back when lightly pressed and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
For the next step, and for the splitting, wax paper is your friend. Any surface that carries a cake layer, I line with wax paper for easier transfer.
Allow the cakes to cool in their pans on a cooling rack for at least an hour. When completely cool, run a knife around the sides to release the cakes, cover each pan with a wax paper-lined plate, and flip. Gently lift the pans off of the cakes, and carefully peel back the pieces of parchment, taking care not to take the very tops of the cake with you. (I did end up pulling off a teeny tiny bit of the top of one layer, but it didn't matter, since the cake would ultimately be covered in whipped cream.)
Wrap the two cakes in plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least three hours, or overnight.
Meanwhile, prepare the strawberries:
Slice the strawberries thinly (but not too thinly - you want the slices thick enough so that you can really taste and feel the berries even once they are smothered by custard, cake, and whipped cream!), and place in a bowl. Sprinkle with the 2T. sugar, and stir. Allow the strawberries to macerate for 1 hour. Their juices will release and pool at the bottom of the bowl. Every so often, give them a stir. Strain the berries, reserving the released juices.
When the cakes are thoroughly chilled, and thus a little sturdier, it's time to split them in two. Using a long serrated bread knife, carefully saw each layer in half. Place each layer on a wax paper-lined baking sheet or plate.
Whip the cream:
Whip the cream and sugar together until stiff.
Assemble the cake!
(I experimented with my layering technique: custard alone between the first and second layers, strawberries alone between the second and third layers, and strawberries and custard between the third an fourth layers. In the future, I'll put strawberries and custard between every layer.)
Place one cake layer on a wax paper-lined baking sheet. Brush the top of the layer with 1/3 of the reserved strawberry juice. Cover with a layer of strawberries, and then with a layer of custard. Top with the next layer of the cake, and repeat: strawberry juice, strawberries, custard, cake layer. And again.
Using a spatula, cover the entire cake with whipped cream. Top with either leftover macerated strawberries, or a few "raw" strawberries. (Next time, I'll go with the latter.)
Chill the cake for at least 8 hours before serving, so that the cake has time to absorb the strawberry juices. Bring to cool room temperature before serving.
(To transfer the cake from the baking sheet to a cake stand, use the wax paper to gently scooch the cake from one surface to the other, then tear away the visible wax paper.)

Hi, koshercamembert. I found these layers to be quite sturdy and just about topple-proof. I can't take any credit - it's just a darn good cake recipe!
And hello, Ellen. Thanks so much for your note. It's great to hear from a Clevelander! I'm a former Cleveland girl myself, and I'm thinking that it may be up to us (and Mario Batali, of course) to spread the custard cassata gospel!

Hi, Lisa
Well, I can't promise that it will be exactly the same as a Cleveland cassata, but it is certainly "in the spirit of." I'm proud to say that this cake has gotten rave reviews around here, so hopefully it will do the trick for you, too. Happy baking! (And happy birthday, if that's what you'll be celebrating with this cake.) By the way, if you would like to try this cake with a lemony twist, take a look over here.

I made this for a dinner party recently... it was a tremendous hit! I, too, couldn't find a recipe for the right kind of cassata cake (the ones from my childhood were from Catalano's in Highland Heights)-- this was amazing.
The outside of the cassata cakes I remember were covered in sheets of white chocolate; I couldn't re-create that in my kitchen, so I just took a vegetable peeler to a white chocolate baking bar and covered the top of the cake with white chocolate curls.

Hillary - That's wonderful! You don't know how fun it is for me to know that someone out there baked this cake. And for a dinner party, no less! I'm so pleased to hear that it was a success. Thank you very, very much for reporting back.
The white chocolate shavings on top sound amazing. My mom grew up in Beachwood, and she also remembers white chocolate being involved in her cassatas. She would very much appreciate your addition.
If you ever want to try a lemony version of this cake, here's a recipe for you. My husband, Eli, actually prefers it over this cassata. I like them both.

Another Cleveland girl here. I'm thrilled to come across an ACTUAL recipe for cassata (the right way). I cheat on mine and use Thank You brand vanilla pudding and the yellow cake that requires butter (it seems to be more dense). Kudos to you for this and thanks for helping me prove to my facebook friends that this is indeed a real cake. You rock.

As a former Clevelander, I love this cake and plan to serve it at my wedding! I have been disappointed time and again away from Cleveland finding strawberry cream cakes with no custard inside. HOWEVER< I think you have forgotten an important flavor, though --I believe there is RUM EXTRACT in the Custard of my favorite version.

Oh my, Oh my!!! I'm not exactly a former Clevelander, I am from Lorain County, born anf raised!! I hade a cassada cake for my b-day for more years than I can remember.
I moved to AZ last spring and NO ONE here knows what a cassada cake is... My 16 year old son and husband even posted an ad on CraigsList trying to find a bakery that makes it in the Phoenix area - they actually had to describe it to a few local bakers, until one agreed to give it a shot. One came close but it wasn't like Ohio cassada cakes.
Now, we can show them this recipe for next time. Thank so much - it is nice seeing other people, especially from Ohio who love this cake..

My grandparents love Cassata cake, for their 50th wedding anniversary we purchased one from a local bakery. Now that I have moved from Cleveland to California, I no longer know where I can purchase one.

My mother was up from Cleveland visiting last weekend ((I live in West MI now)). Her birthday is coming up next Saturday - but since i can't be with her then - I wanted to give her a special treat while she was here with us - her favorite cake - Cassata Cake! I called every single restaurant, store & bakery I could find and NO ONE knew what I was talking about! I even called the "elite" bakery in town that everyone raves about - and I had to describe the cake in detail to her - she said she's never heard of it. I had NO idea this was a Cleveland creation!!! Thank you SO much for posting your recipe!! I WISH I had found it last weekend...instead, my Mom and I came up with a cheater version. It was delicious - but I don't think compared to an ACTUAL cassata cake like yours!! I can't wait to share the recipe with her!!! Hopefully we'll be together again soon and we can make a day of this cake! THANK YOU!!! ((Oh - and i can't wait to tell everyone it's apparently from my home-town!! YAY!! One more reason Cleveland really DOES ROCK!!)) :) :)

Hey Jess! I'm trying this cake tonight for a memorial day shindig and I have a question on the custard: do you really go with no added flavor? It tasted so eggy to me that I had to add some vanilla, which worked well to balance the flavors.
Happy memorial day!
- May 30, 2010 at 9:59 PM
- Jess said...
To all of you Clevelanders and cassata cake lovers - a belated hello and thank you for your wonderful notes and stories about the hunt for the perfect cassata! I love that I'm not the only one who gets excited about this cake.
Hi, Liz. Adding some vanilla to the custard certainly sounds good to me. I've kept it plain in the past, and I haven't ever had a problem with it tasting particularly eggy. Did you whisk the mixture constantly once it was over the heat? Without constant whisking, I think you might risk getting tiny bits of cooked egg in your custard, which could account for an eggy taste. Is it possible that that's what happened? Or, perhaps your custard was perfect, and you just happen not to like the flavor of the yolks. Another option for flavoring the custard: The original custard recipe suggests adding a tablespoon of Punsch (Swedish liqueur).
I hope that you enjoyed the cake, and that you're having a lovely holiday.

- Liz said...
OK, more from me on this, my first layer cake!
Did you trim the layer's edges to make them even? I did, since there was some mushrooming puffiness on the top of the cakes. I threw them in a bowl with some strawberries and custard for a quick cook's trifle (to munch while preparing the cake).
- May 31, 2010 at 1:44 PM
- Liz said...
PS: Thanks, Jess, for your reply! It just showed up after I'd finished writing my comment! I think it's the yolky flavor rather than bits of cooked egg, since the custard came out perfectly smooth. Cheers and happy mem day!

Hi Jess - greetings from NC! I just got back from a visit with my husband's family in Cleveland, and came across your blog while searching for a recipe to duplicate the cassata cake we had at Corbo's. I had run into the same ricotta problem that you and others have come across and am very grateful that you have done the work in piecing together a franken-recipe that works better! I can't wait to try this. If I get it right it will be my mother in law's birthday cake - but I'll need a few practice rounds I'm sure. =)

Thank you so much for this recipe! I grew up in Cleveland, and Corbo's cassata cake has always been one of my favorite things from back home. I was about to spend the day experimenting in the kitchen to try to duplicate it, but I am very happy that I found your recipe instead. The custard and strawberries are spot on.

Hi Jess,
Grew up in Cleveberg too. I'm going to make this cake for my birthday next month when my folks come to visit me here in S. Cal. (Very excited to blend all these memories.)
Per a previous comment.
What is your instinct about what type of rum to add to the custard?
What proof? and
When do you add the rum to the custard mixture?

I grew up in the Cleveland area... we always had Cassata cakes for every occasion... happy to read your story... and find the recipe. Going to give it a whirl for my daughter's birthday. Would you put a fondant over this to make it a little fancier? My guess is that it would ruin it, but I'm just wondering your thoughts & or suggestions?
- July 31, 2010 at 4:19 PM
- Jess said...
Hi, all
I'm just getting caught up around here and I hope I'm not too late in answering your questions. Let's get down to business:
Liz - I haven't had trouble with this particular recipe puffing up, but I have had some puffiness with other layer cake recipes I have made. When it happens, I just carefully level them off with a serrated bread knife and, preferably, a turntable. It sounds like you made perfect use of the trimmings!
Sherry - Thanks for your note. I'd love to hear how it went, if you think of it.
Lisa - So glad this post is helpful. It has been so long since I've had Corbo's cake that I honestly can't say whether this version is a true match. But it's definitely "in the style of." Enjoy!
Laura - The original recipe calls for Punsch, a Swedish liqueur, but rum sounds like a terrific substitution. I've never tried adding liqueur to my custard, so I can't speak from experience, but the original recipe has you add it once the custard has boiled and thickened, just before you chill it. I'm afraid that I have no instinct whatsoever to share with you about which rum might be best (shockingly, I've never baked with it!), but I have a feeling that you can't go wrong. If you do give it a try, I would be very grateful to hear what worked for you.
Anonymous - Happy birthday to your daughter! I've never found fondant particularly appetizing, even on fancy wedding cakes, so I'm probably not the best person to ask about this. But yes, I have a feeling that it would just be too much. The pictures in this post are from the first time I ever made this cake. In subsequent bakings, i've done a much better job dressing it up. First of all, my frosting has gotten much tidier. Also, I now use just-cut, not macerated strawberries on this cake. Take a look at the lemon version of this cake, and you'll see what I mean.
- August 1, 2010 at 6:17 AM
- Anonymous said...
Thank you so much for your response... I'd decided against the fondant, afterall... wouldn't be a true cassata cake, anyway. I checked out your Lemon Cake... beautiful! For the cassata cake, do you not macerate the strawberries for the filling, either, now? I'm doing a practice one this weekend for my brother...
- August 9, 2010 at 11:46 AM
- Jess said...
Hi again, Anonymous. I do macerate the berries for the filling. I just leave some strawberries unmacerated (is that a word?) for the outside of the cake. I apologize for the confusion. Once I have a consistent internet connection (I'm traveling right now) I'll go back into the post and edit the recipe to make sure that everything is clear and up-to-date. Your brother is a lucky guy to get to enjoy your practice run. Let me know how it goes, if you think of it!

Hello all,
My name is Jazz I am from Cleveland and I am glad to have found this recipe. I had no idea that this was a cake exclusive to Cleveland or better yet to Ohio. That is why I can�t find it anywhere but Cleveland. I now reside in Georgia. Thank you so much for posting it. I love this cake. My grandmother would make this cake for my birthday every year and I have yet to find any that could top hers or even come close. My friends surprised me for my birthday with one but it was chocolate. That was a first for me. I never knew there was such a cake as a Chocolate Cassata Cake. LOL! It is suppose to have strawberries and custard in it. LOL! My friends knew it was my favorite but had never heard of it or even seen one. I was grateful for the attempt anyway. I love them. Now I plan on making one for my birthday. By the way, my birthday is January 1ST. Thank you so much. Now I can give them a piece of Cleveland.

OMG, I love this recipe, I am from Cleveland (Slavic Villiage) and grew up on this cake and another version with a gram cracker crust on the bottom. I moved to Bend, Oregon about 6 years ago, and when I went to a bakery they did not know what a cassata cake was??? I was sad and tried to explain it, but they looked confused. I wanted it for my wedding but had to get a traditional cake instead. I visit Cleveland every year to see my family and getting Cassata cake is always on my list to do before i leave, but thanks to this recipe, I can now make it at home. I have my Birthday and College Graduation Party coming up in June and this Recipe is sure to be a hit. I am so excited that I finally found a recipe that is perfect! I plan to use the rum in mine though. Thanks again and I will eat a piece for you! I miss Cleavland and Cassata Cake!

Overjoyed to find this recipe! Moved to Chicago too many years ago to count. Used to get a Corbo's Cassata cake every year for my birthday and I have missed them.

Hi, I was born in Cleveland, graduated from Strongsville, then moved to the west side of Cleveland (W. 130th area). There was an Italian bakery on W. 130th across from an Italian Restaurant/Bar. The bar was The Family Trio. I can't remember the name of the bakery. It has since moved to Strongsville, I think still on W. 130th. I had my first cassada cake from there and fell in love with it. I didn't know that the cake was a local Cleveland cake. I moved to Southern Illinois and went to a local bakery and ordered a cassada cake. It had anise and ricotta in it. It was horrible! I tried to make one on my own and totally failed. I found a recipe on the internet that was similar, and have made it twice. My birthday is this Sunday and I plan on making your recipe and hope it measures up to all the good raves I've been reading. I currently live in Panama City, Florida, and it sure would be nice to have a piece of home for my birthday. Thank you for posting this! I can't wait!!!! Sue

Hi, Sue. The Cleveland love that this cake has generated here in the comments section continues to blow me away! I hope this cake will be everything you want it to be. So you know, in my most recent version, I used only three layers of cake instead of four to make it a little more manageable. (You can freeze the fourth.) I put custard and strawberries between each layer. I think I like it better this way. I'll have to update the recipe. Happy birthday to you, and happy baking!

Hi, Stephanie. I'd say it's closer to a white cake than a yellow cake, but keep in mind that the cake in this recipe is a sponge cake. A cake from a mix will be denser, closer to a traditional birthday cake. That's not to say it won't work; it will just be different!

now, i have to make it into a half sheet cake (12x18 in my neck of the woods, florida). i believe it is sturdy enough. just off the top of your head, do you know how many cups of batter this one recipe makes? i will only be making the one layer and splitting that; i don't think it will fit into the cake box if do any more layers than the one. following your recipe, the 9" round cake i made was over 6" high!! it was gorgeolicious!
thanks for the recipe.

My sister wanted a Strawberry Cassata Cake for her birthday. I never made one before, and this was my chance. I used this recipe, but I found it on another site. I followed the recipe to the letter. But, along with it I made a Swiss Meringue Cream Cheese frosting also. I mixed the custard with the frosting....and baby.....you talking bout delish! I couldn't taste the entire cake until my sister cut it, but it was wonderful. Light and fluffy, the filling went really well with the strawberries. It was great. I will be adding this one to my collection of cakes. (When I was soaking the strawberries, I added a little amaretto to them along with the sugar)

Hi I posted a comment last August (2011) about this cassata cake. I had forgotten the name of the bakery on W. 130th where I had my first cassata cake, I remember now, it was Rito's Bakery. I made this recipe for my birthday last year and will be making this again this year and again, and again, and again! Thank you for this wonderful recipe. Sue

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! We love cassata cake, and since we had to go gluten and dairy free in this house, I've frowned every time we drive past the local bakery (We're in Parma) I'm going to try and adapt this to be good for my son's food issues, but I'm so glad to finally find a recipe for cassata cake without ricotta!

Me and my husband went to Cleveland last year for a Dolphins vs Browns game and stumbled upon Corbos Bakery.. I just want to say it was thee best Italian bakery we've ever been to! We must have spent over $50 in there that night, we brought everything back to our hotel room and devoured it all!! Everything was awesome but I can't stop thinking about that cassata cake! My birthday is in just a couple of day & I will be making myself this cake! I'll let you know how it turns out! Thanks in advance for the recipe!

Hi! I am a native Cleveland girl, Lakewood to be exact! However, I have lived all over and currently am back in Lakewood until late June....I then, unless a miracle occurs and both myself and husband find jobs here, return to CA. Personal history aside, I think that this fascination with Cleveland- style Cassata is fantastic! I love it when people come to Cleveland and expect ho-hum and get BLINDSIDED by the amount of awesome-ness our town offers! Thanks for the great story and recipe, i love all of the comments and will be sure to somehow get you a photo of my cake when i finish... hopefully before my soon to be 5 year old ( his birthday cake request) devours it! Cheers!

Hey this is Sue again from the 2011 post. I made this cake back in 2011 and it was great! Last year I had a birthday party and made it again. The layers kept sliding off and I had to put sticks in the cake to keep it from sliding. I'm having another party this Saturday (Aug 17) and I'm making it again. This time I'm going to use 3 layers and see if that stops some of the sliding. I also have a recipe for the whipped cream frosting that's supposed to be very stable, it uses heavy cream, vanilla and almond extracts, sugar, and cream cheese. I hope this works!!

Hi, Sue! I'm so glad you liked the cake, but sorry to hear about the sliding. I haven't experienced that before, so I'm not sure how to help. After chilling the cake for eight hours, I've always found it to be sturdy. Was it very hot when you served the cake? If so, maybe that's what was behind the sliding... Good luck with attempt #2. I hope it goes well and that the cake is a hit!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for coming up with this recipe and posting it! When I googled "Cleveland cassata cake" the first hit was for this recipe that was printed in a magazine which was pretty much copied straight from yours without any attribution! (That just makes me so mad!)
I made the cake this past weekend but only used half of it to make a 2 layer cake. I used the other half to make cakes-in-a-jar and really liked how they turned out! Will probably be posting about it soon with attribution to you. Thanks again!

I'm a Clevelander, too, so was so excited to find your fabulous interpretation. Just modified it to be gluten free & gum free and boy did we have a fabulous time diving into our beautifully ugly creation, too! Thanks for the inspiration.

Born and raised in Cleveland I was sad that no one in Nebraska knew what a Cassata cake was when I moved here two years ago. But good news! It's just called Italian Wedding Cake out here! All you former Clevelanders, don't fret! Maybe your favorite cake is just being disguised as another name as well :)

|Turkish international Nevriye Yilmaz made a surprise return for Galatasaray on the weekend
News is good for Turkish national team plans looking ahead to summer, UMMC keep on winning in Russia, whilst CCC Polkowice and UE Sopron take control in Poland and Hungary respectively.
Turkey have been handed a significant boost ahead of EuroBasket Women after Nevriye Yilmaz made an unexpected return to action with Galatasaray in the Turkish play-offs.
Reports just a couple of weeks ago had suggested the star would be ruled out for the remainder of the club season, but she stepped out for the Turkish giants as they edged nearer to a play-off Final showdown with arch rivals Fenerbahce.
Both clubs are 2-0 ahead in their respective semi-finals, with Yilmaz having scored an efficient eight points in a little over ten minutes of action, as Galatasaray routed Istanbul University 74-50. In fact, the entire frontcourt was dominant with Sylvia Fowles claiming 18 points on eight-of-ten floor shooting.
Fenerbahce needed a buzzer-beating triple from Angel McCoughtry to dodge a bullet against Kayseri Kaski spor and take a 77-75 success. McCoughtry and Cappie Pondexter had 40 points for the winning team, whilst Asjha Jones and Lara Sanders combined for 49 points in defeat.
Having already won EuroLeague Women, the Russian Cup and Russian regular season title, UMMC Ekaterinburg punched their ticket for the Play-Off Final with a comfortable 84-63 success at Dynamo Kursk to advance with a 2-0 series win.
It was once again Candace Parker who did the business, finishing with a double-double of 19 points and 11 rebounds, whilst Deanna Nolan and Diana Taurasi both weighed in with 17-point hauls.
There could be another famous heavyweight rivalry re-ignited in Russia too, since Sparta&K M.R. Vidnoje responded to the pressure of losing their first semi-final game with Nadezhda by taking a precious 80-69 win in Orenburg.
DeWanna Bonner poured in a game-high 28 points for Nadezhda, but Sparta&K played better, with Candice Dupree harvesting 23 points and 10 rebounds. The deciding game will take place on Friday in Vidnoje.
|Valeriya Musina had her biggest offensive night of the season for CCC Polkowice on the weekend
CCC Polkowice are out to conquer everything in the Polish League after they followed up their Cup success and regular season win by moving 2-0 ahead in the Play-Off Final against Wisla Can-Pack.
After a nail-biting first match-up which was only decided in the last seconds, Polkowice strolled to victory 73-52, in a bad-tempered contest littered with an array of unsavoury unsportsmanlike fouls.
Valeriya Musina produced her best shooting night of the season with a superb 23 points including four triples for the rampant hosts.
UE Sopron have taken the initiative in the Hungarian Play-Off Final by moving 1-0 ahead against defending champions Uni Gyor, with a crushing 74-55 success.
The victory was claimed thanks mainly to 23 points from Serbian forward Jelena Milovanovic and a scorching second-half when they outscored their opponent 44-27 to ease their way to the win.
Despite the considerable presence of FIBA Europe Young Player of the Year and the recently drafted Alina Iagupova, Elizabet Basket couldn't prevent Dynamo Kiev from completing a 2-1 series victory and climbing to the top of the podium in Ukraine.
Kiev won the third and decisive game 73-60, despite 20 points from Iagupova, who added to her list of personal accolades by being named as MVP of the Ukrainian League.
For the winning team, the American trio of Juanita Ward, Jessica Canady and Tyra White took on most of the workload, scoring 19, 18 and 14 points respectively.

A normal spine, when viewed from behind, appears straight. However, a spine affected by scoliosis shows evidence of a lateral, or side-to-side curvature, with the spine looking like an "S" or "C" and a rotation of the back bones (vertebrae), giving the appearance that the person is leaning to one side. The Scoliosis Research Society defines scoliosis as a curvature of the spine measuring 10 degrees or greater.
Scoliosis is a type of spinal deformity and should not be confused with poor posture.
Spinal curvature from scoliosis may occur on the right or left side of the spine, or on both sides in different sections. Both the thoracic (mid) and lumbar (lower) spine may be affected by scoliosis.
In more than 80 percent of cases, the cause of scoliosis is unknown—a condition called idiopathic scoliosis. Scoliosis is more common in females than males.
According to the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, three to five out of every 1,000 children develop spinal curves that are considered large enough to require treatment.
The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, in cooperation with the Scoliosis Research Society, describe three different types of scoliosis that can occur in children—congenital (present at birth), neuromuscular, or idiopathic:
Other causes of scoliosis may include:
The following are the most common symptoms of scoliosis. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
Back pain, leg pain, and changes in bowel and bladder habits are not commonly associated with idiopathic scoliosis. A child experiencing these types of symptoms requires immediate medical evaluation by a physician.
The symptoms of scoliosis may resemble other spinal conditions or deformities, or may be a result of an injury or infection. Always consult your child's physician for a diagnosis.
In addition to a complete medical history and physical examination, X-rays (a diagnostic test which uses invisible electromagnetic energy beams to produce images of internal tissues, bones, and organs onto film) are the primary diagnostic tool for scoliosis. In establishing a diagnosis of scoliosis, the physician measures the degree of spinal curvature on the X-ray.
The following other diagnostic procedures may be performed for non idiopathic curvatures, atypical curve patterns, or congenital scoliosis:
Early detection of scoliosis is most important for successful treatment. Pediatricians or family physicians, and even some school programs, routinely look for signs that scoliosis may be present.
Specific treatment of scoliosis will be determined by your child's physician based on:
The goal of treatment is to stop the progression of the curve and prevent deformity. Treatment may include:
According to the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Disorders, there is no scientific evidence to show that other methods for treating scoliosis (for example, chiropractic manipulation, electrical stimulation, nutritional supplementation, and exercise) prevent the progression of the disease.
The management of scoliosis is individualized for each child depending on his or her age, amount of curvature, and amount of time remaining for skeletal growth. Scoliosis will require frequent examinations by your child's physician to monitor the curve as your child grows and develops. Early detection is important. If left untreated, scoliosis can cause problems with heart and lung function.

1. Gwen Stefani - Los Angeles, May 3
The lovely Gwen Stefani surprised the opening night audience by joining the Rolling Stones during "Wild Horses". With her long straight hair and headband reminiscent of the wild west, the No Doubt singer brought her own brand of sparkle to the stage.
2. Keith Urban - Los Angeles - May 3
Oh, but there was more! After Stefani had the crowd worked up, country star Keith Urban came out a few songs later, guitar blazing and taking over some verses during "Respectable".
3. Mick Taylor - Los Angeles, May 3
Gotta make a big scene for any tour kickoff night! The Stones' kickoff show closed the rolodex with old pal and former Stones guitarist Mick Taylor, who raged on his Les Paul for an epic, extra bluesy rendition of "Midnight Rambler". Taylor popped in on several dates during the summer tour to further spread all the twangy goodness.
4. Tom Waits - Oakland, May 6
One of the grittiest voices in music joined the Rolling Stones for a truly backwoods blues moment. The endlessly eccentric Tom Waits, who rarely makes live appearances anymore, brought his madman's swagger to the stage at Oakland's Oracle Arena to throw down some verses during "Little Red Rooster".
5. Bonnie Raitt - San Jose, May 9
An empty microphone is always a good indication of things to come. And in came country staple Bonnie Raitt to the stage during "Let It Bleed". Her effortless dexterity on the slide guitar is a marvel on it's own, and left Keith and Ronnie to keep up!
6. John Fogerty - San Jose, May 9
And the guests kept coming at the HP Pavilion show, with roots rock legend John Fogerty surprising the audience as well. The former Creedence Clearwater Revival lead man blended in seamlessly with the Stones, almost sounding like Jagger during "It's All Over Now".
7. Katy Perry - Las Vegas, May 11
In true to Vegas form, the Rolling Stones brought out the big guns (no pun intended) for their date in Sin City. Pop star Katy Perry came out in a heaven sent and hell bent leather number with matching thigh-high boots to sing "Beast of Burden" with Jagger. Looking like that, she definitely brought the beast out in all of us.
8. John Mayer - Anaheim, May 15
Katy Perry's on-and-off-again beau John Mayer popped up on the next Stones tour date. The lads and Mayer tackled the Muddy Waters song "Champagne and Reefer" with plenty of cringe-tastic Mayer guitar faces to match classic blues tune.
9. Dave Grohl - Anaheim, CA - May 18
For the second date at Anaheim's Honda Center, the Stones went hard with special guest Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters shredding along to, of course, "Bitch".
10. Carrie Underwood - Toronto, May 25
Canada got a taste of the South when country firecracker Carrie Underwood joined the Stones on stage for "Only Rock 'N Roll". It's always awesome to see the good girl go rock 'n roll!
11. Taj Mahal - Chicago, May 28
The first of the Stones' Chicago shows was treated to legendary bluesman Taj Mahal, who had just turned 71 earlier in the month. But like the Stones have shown, age can't slow down the rock as they performed "Six Days on the Road".
12. Sheryl Crow - Chicago, May 31
For their second show in Chicago, Sheryl Crow donned her leather pants and joined the lads on the mic for "All Down the Line". This isn't the first time Crow has performed with the iconic band, and you can see just how well she and Mick can work a stage together.
13. Taylor Swift - Chicago, June 3
Chicago must be the luckiest city in the USA this summer, with three Rolling Stones shows in a row! The band must've saved the best for last, for superstar Taylor Swift joined them on stage for their last date in the Windy City. In true Swift for, she and Mick performed an adorable rendition of "As Tears Go By", bowing and gesturing to each other like a king presenting his daughter at a royal ball.
14. Win Butler - Montreal, June 9
There was no need for introduction when Montreal's native son Win Butler of the Grammy-winning Arcade Fire strolled on stage during the Stones' classic "The Last Time". Joining on guitar and vocals, Butler towered over Jagger (he's 6'4''!) and even tossed a mic into the audience. Much better bonus than a guitar pick!
15. Gary Clark Jr. - Boston, June 13
Guitar sparring with Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards on the endlessly bluesy "I'm Going Down" was Texas musician Gary Clark Jr. The buzzy guitarist had previously joined the Stones on stage with John Mayer last December.
16. Brad Paisley - Philadelphia, June 18
The Stones got red hot dose of country with special guest Brad Paisley. The musician strummed and sang along to "Dead Flowers", with Jagger's feigned drawl struggling to keep up with Paisley's real one!
17. Aaron Neville - Philadelphia, June 21, 2013
For their very last surprise guest of the tour, the Rolling Stones had sort of a karaoke moment with R&B singer Aaron Neville. Jagger even donned a hat to match Neville's as they sang the classic 1964 song "Under the Boardwalk". Maybe for Jagger the song was a little karaoke-esque, but when Neville dazzling voice filled the venue, it all made sense.

July is a bit of a quiet month for game releases until the end, which brings StarCraft II and BlazBlue: Continuum Shift. Now, you're probably on board for the first one. That's okay, but BB:CS is quite awesome and is a great niche fighting game to play in between streaks of Super Street Fighter IV.
