This was my nana’s all-time favorite cake! Now I know why

A lovely surprise that originated in the South of the United States, Italian Cream Cake is a delicacy that combines decadence with wonderful tastes. The cake was really made much closer to home, despite the name giving the impression that it originated in Europe. Some Americans may have associated the “Italian” part of the name with the fact that it calls for cream cheese, which was once seen as a strange, foreign product. Combining the airiness of sponge cake with the decadence of cream cheese icing, this cake has become a mainstay at joyous occasions such as weddings, birthdays, and celebratory holidays. Toasted nuts and coconut flakes give it a crunchier texture and make it more decadent, making it a satisfying dessert.
