Who Moved my Mousse Cake?
Friday, October 10th, 2008 by Andy
Yes, mousse cake, chocolate mousse cake, the more you say it, the better it feels.
Actually this post is about the the apparent dissappearance of Foley’s Bakery and my need for a mousse cake. I anyone knows whether or not Foleys is still around somewhere then please let me know because their Chocolate Mousse cake was the pinacle of errrrr mousse cake. I used to frequent their bakery when they were still on Congress Street in Portland near the First Parish Church. At Easter they would make little cakes shaped like chicks (the feathered kind) and I’d buy one for Ollie who was about two at the time. Their mousse cake was the perfect birthday cake. Anyway I’m happy to say that the ‘patisserie’ (I’m calling it that because it looks like one) at Whole Foods is doing pretty well at filling the gap. If Foley’s CMC was a perfect 10 then I’d say Whole Foods are hovering at about 8. They do some fresh fruit tarts that are mighty fine too. I look forward to slowly working my way through some of their offerings. Pictured, a CMC, probably larger than the one at Whole Foods although they do come in 2 sizes…….
