Famous Southern Layer Cakes from Carolina
It started with a Southern style 7-layer caramel cake made from an old family recipe—seven moist layers of classic yellow cake topped and filled with creamy caramel icing. Caroline Ragsdale Reutter served one such beauty at her son’s christening, and soon found herself taking orders as far away as Alaska. Twenty-seven years later, the cake that launched a thousand delights is now the “Home of the World’s Best Caramel Cake,” a thriving bakery that dishes out incredibly delicious cakes alongside its signature flavor, such as tart Coconut Lemon and dreamy Chocolate Caramel.
One bite of her sweet, creamy creations and confirmation is swift: Southern girls really do do it best.

EVERYTHING!!! This cake was surperb!! The cake was moist, light and fluffy! The frosting was delectable and an interesting texture that is like a party of yumminess!!! The blackberry and lime flavors are on point!!! I want to order one of these just to have it, after tasting a piece from ordering one for my mother in-law for mothers day. One bite and this takes you to a nostalgic summer moment. By far this is my favorite cake ever and I'm a picky cake eater lol.

The cake was so delicious. The lemon flavor comes through with just the right amount. You can't beat a lemon and blueberry combo and it wasn't too sweet - which I like. The cake itself was moist and the frosting was so light and creamy and not heavy like some can be. This is one of my favorites.

It tasted like the original red velvet cake I made over fifty years ago ago. Frosting a little different but probably more Southern using some cream cheese. All our guests loved it!
