Love at first bite!
Straight from the bustling streets of Japan to Denver, via two entrepreneurs dream realized, is a Baum, but not just any Baum, a Baum cake. What is a Baum cake you might ask? Well I am glad you did, because the answer is, a layered rotisserie cake unique to the United States, born in Germany, and brought over to Japan to create a passion for all things, Baum. The cake is created in our imported oven, then cooled and glazed with Callebaut milk or white chocolate, Cointreau, hazelnuts; choose your fancy. Then when sliced, the Baum cake reveals concentric circles, much like the rings of a tree. The Japanese even call it the “tree of life” and we agree — if we could subsist on Baum cake alone, that would truly be living! It is the first and only one of a kind to be found without having it shipped from across the pond, the Pacific pond to be exact. Its unique rings, which spawns from spits in the “mouth of the dragon” (not to be taken literally), are poured one layer at a time, by skilled bakers trained in Japan who are now back in Denver to share their culinary experience with those who are willing to nourish their mind, soul and spirit with this Euro Asian delight. This unique cake will titillate the senses while delivering a Zen feeling throughout the body with every bite.
The cake is more than just an Euro Asian delight and scrumptious desert, the rings it bears represents tradition, love and prosperity, and who doesn’t need one of those at one time or another ? So come on down and watch our master baum bakers work the oven, 6 foot tall and 5 foot wide, that is redder than the fire that bakes the cakes. You are guaranteed an Eastern experience in the comfort of Glaze , The Baum Cake Shoppe.
We open in November at 1160 Madison Street. More to come so check back often!
