Seven Sisters Cake

When my husband was young, his grandmother would get a cake called Seven Sisters Cake from a bakery in Hamtramck, Michigan. It was a yellow cake cut into seven layers and it was frosted with a chocolate filling. He remembers when his grandmother would cut a slice of the cake that he would break off a piece to eat. His remembers the frosting being harder then tradional frosting, more like a fudge. I was hoping some one might also remember a cake like this, possibly another name, recipe or where to buy it.

Hmm - maybe "murzynek" or "piernik"?

Martha Washington Bakery in Hamtramck!

If you'd like I can stop by New Martha Washington some time and ask if they still make it.

The Vermont Country Store Catalog has something they call "Seven Sisters Cake" - I believe they have an on-line catalog. Best of luck!

Please let me know if Martha Washington has the seven sisters cake or if a recipe is available on-line.

Thank you

Don't think Marsha Washington Bakery is in existence anymore. New Palace and Oaza Bakery also make a seven sisters cake. Oaza is the best, according to my Hamtramck Hubby.

We were just talking about the 7-sisters cake and thought I'd try to call it up on the internet for a recipe. I'm going to keep looking myself.

I was there last year, they still make it.

SEVEN SISTERS IS STILL IN HAMTRAMCK, ALSO OAZA BAKERY IS GONE. NEW PALACE STILL CARRIES IT. AND SO DOES SWEETHEART BAKERY ON KELLEY IN DETROIT.

Supreme Bakery between McGraw and I-94 carries a delicious seven sisters cake! (in Detroit)

I am really surprised that no one has or is willing to share the recipe for the seven sisters cake. I live on an island and cannot even get anyone to ship me any of these cakes. Would be nice if I could at least bake one for my husband and my enjoyment. Where I live they have their own foods and do not take to anything that is out of their realm and they would not fall head over heals for this kind of cake. They do not even know what Polish food is or care to try it, I know cause I tried to serve some Polish dishes and they were passed over. Sure would like to get this recipe for the seven sister cake before my husband passes away from his heart problem, I know he would enjoy it

Hi Lost. :)

I just ordered a cookbook from my local library that has a recipe in it for Seven Sisters Cake. It should be here anyday and I will share the recipe asap.

cheers

when you get it email me too :)

or post online, sounds delicious..

You can try the Polish Market on 15 and Dequindere. They have a similar cake called stefanka(ukranian word for it, im ukranian) except its a chocolate cake instead of a white cake.

It is an awesome cake. If you get the recipe let me know, my wife said she would make it for me. I used to get the cake in Mt. Clemens, but that bakery changed owners and it wasn't the same. I just bought a piece of the Seven Sisters cake today in St Clair Shores at a Bakery at 12mile & Little Mack.
