Sydney-based Wholegreen Bakery presents the Cardboard Cake, which takes a playful spin on the idea that gluten-free foods taste like 'cardboard.' It looks like packing boxes but despite the look, it is a delicious blend of coffee, butterscotch, pastry, caramel, cocoa powder, and brown rice flour.
This is a rich flavor palette and the dessert is presented on a bespoke baking tray conjured up by advertising agency The Hallway. It also has an intricate design capturing the cardboard grooves. Cherie Lyden, founder of Wholegreen Bakery states, “If I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard people say that gluten-free food tastes like cardboard, I’d be a rich lady. We’ve been proving the skeptics wrong for years, but with The Cardboard Cake we’re taking it to the next level and tackling the misconceptions head on.”
