Cake with a Kick
Rich, moist, and laced with the magic of Ireland’s black stout.
Dear Ireland,
There’s something about the smell of a cake in the oven that stirs the soul—especially when it’s laced with Guinness and memories. You’ve always known how to take the simplest things—flour, sugar, a drop of stout—and turn them into something worth gathering around. In every bite, we taste a little bit of history, a little bit of home. And somehow, that makes everything feel right again.
