RETRO RECIPE: BIG PINK RHUBARB CAKE

Over the weekend, my friend Clara and I embarked on a project. We discovered her grandmother's recipe box and decided to delve into the cake section of things. For our cakeapalooza, we chose four cakes that compelled us into baking action -- featuring throwback ingredients such as marshmallows, Jello mixes and vegetable shortening.

The first cake up was a hero of a confection, "Big Pink" as we referred to it things came together. I posted the recipe on The Kitchn today, so be sure to give it a visit. I recently rearranged my office/studio and really got to play with this wild dessert. I loved setting the cake into an Alice in Wonderland/little girl party fantasy. Hope you enjoy!
