I just received an invitation that made my day. A friend sent me a photo of herself with an enormous slab of cake, declaring, “I have a homemade funfetti sheet cake right here. Grab a fork and come over!” Naturally, I rushed over, and honestly, so would you.
If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll know that sheet caking is all the rage. And let’s be real, Tina Fey’s hilarious tirade on a recent episode of Weekend Update has left us all with an insatiable craving for cake.
Fey’s unforgettable commentary took aim at everything from political unrest to the giant sheet cake in front of her. She declared, “Sheet caking is a grassroots movement. Most women I know have been indulging in it weekly since the election.” She humorously suggested that diving into a massive sheet cake with a fork—no plate required—is a far better option than engaging in heated political debates.
While opinions on Fey’s cake-centered remedy may vary, we can all agree on one thing: the temptation to plunge a fork into a fluffy, moist 9×11 cake topped with creamy frosting (and maybe some sprinkles) is hard to resist. After all, sprinkles bring a pop of joy that reminds us of happier times.
Fey makes it look so enticing, and I love that this trend allows us all to indulge without shame. She encourages us to support local bakeries—perhaps a Jewish-run or African-American-owned one—by ordering a cake adorned with the American flag and simply enjoying it. Alternatively, you can join this “grassroots movement” from the comfort of your home by baking your own cake!
