Anybody in Philly tried The Pumpple? It's a pumpkin and an apple pie baked with vanilla and chocolate cake, and the whole thing's glued together with vanilla buttercream.

I simultaneously got a toothache AND stomach ache just looking at it.

Oh holy hell ...

Yeah, I'm all about the dessert - and I'm not sure I'd eat that. Unless, of course, I had four other people to split a piece with me.

Pumpkin, apple and vanilla are 3 of my favorites. I think the chocolate might put this a bit over the top for me, though.

I don't like apple or pumpkin pie.

I'm all about the cake with buttercream, tho.

I don't mind at all having more than one dessert served to me at a time but they should still be consumed seperately, not mashed together in one big cylindrical lump.

I'm with Retina.

I loooooooooooove dessert. But one at a time, please. That looks gross.

whoa!

I'd hit it!

I don't much care for pie.

That was a freebie, have at it.

You usually only respond to me when you take issue with what I said so this is a nice exception, lol.

I ALL of those things. It actually looks really good.

And I WANT one!

There is a place in Madison that makes the best cakes. Actually, there are several - but I'm thinking of one that makes a cake with whipped cream icing. My whole life, I have fought the urge to buy one of those cakes and just sit down with the cake and a fork.

That looks sinfully DELICIOUS!!

The icing is always my least favorite part of any cake. Thankfully, you can scrape most of it off. The innards of the cake you posted are all things I like.

Edit... scrape! Dang it. Not scrap. Although I guess that worked, too.

I looooove frosting. In fact, my entire philosophy of life can be summed up as, "Less cake, more frosting."

I just bought a Black Forest Cherry Torte for the weekend.

I will often pass on cake by claiming I'm too full from other food just so I don't have to look like a Seinfeld character while I sit there and scrape off all the frosting. I REALLY dislike it. It's just a pile of sugar and I'd rather taste the cake. Even if it's dry and flavorless.

The more I think about this thing, the more I'm thinking NO. The flavors aren't even the biggest issue; it's all those textures mushed together in a big heap. I don't think I could do it.

And who doesn't love buttercream? I mean, seriously!

what if they exchanged the pumpkin pie for cheesecake, and the buttercream for praline ice-cream.....

:shame: ..srry....

I guess they had to had create something to compliment ........

Deboned turkey stuffed with cornbread dressing, duck, rice dressing and chicken........the Turducken.

When I showed the picture of the Pumpple to my friends, one of them said, "That's as bad as turducken!"
