Lesly McDevitt of The Sugary: on almond croissant cookies, vanilla bean paste, carrot cake, roasted strawberries, and red velvet
In one hand, imagine I’m holding a slice of cake; in the other, a slice of pie. I’ve got a pair of reflective glasses on, and I’m asking you to choose. Which one are you going with?
For me, it’s going to be cake all day. I’m not a discerning person when it comes to cake; I’m going to eat whatever you put in front of me for dessert, and I’m probably going to enjoy it. But if it’s a one and a half pound slice of German chocolate cake from 4th Street Delicatessen, or a delicious cream cheese icing carrot, I’m going to enjoy it a whole lot more.
So when I came across the Sugary, a delightful little cake shop a block from Rittenhouse, and owner Lesly McDevitt agreed to talk to me, I was extremely happy. Before you even listen to this episode, stop now and go look at the photos of some of her cake creations at thesugaryphilly.com. And you’ll see what I mean right away - Lesly is making some of the most fabulous-looking, picturesque cakes I’ve ever seen.
We sat down at her shop, nestled into the cleanly decorated pastel vibes, and went down the rabbit hole - covering how these cakes are sculpted, how they’re layered, and how bullets are sweated out when they’re transported to a wedding.
