Pretzel Cake – Stores that Sell Pretzel Cake in Bay Ridge & Brooklyn
I grew up in Sunset Park and everyone in Sunset Park knew Olsen’s Bakery. Olsen’s was a Norwegian bakery and was very popular. They had a cake called a pretzel cake. My Dad loved that cake. He and I would bring it over to my grandmother’s house on Sundays.
The pretzel cake is a light, soft cake cut in half and filled with whipped cream or with custard. Some have chocolate, but the one at Olsen’s was custard cream with raspberry. It was not only delicious – it was beautiful!
