Sanders Confectionary Company in Detroit, Michigan, makes all sorts of candies and fudge, but is famous for what is appropriately called “bumpy cake.” This legendary dessert resulted from a happy accident over 100 years ago when the owner, Fred Sanders, ran out of buttercream to completely frost his devil's food cake. He decided instead to pipe thick rows of vanilla buttercream (the “bumps”) on the top, then blanket the entire surface with chocolate fudge frosting. This adapted version boasts a moist, one-bowl chocolate cake, long pillows of sweet vanilla buttercream and a decadent, pourable fudge draped on top. Be sure to clear room in the freezer: freezing the cake before and after piping the buttercream is essential to success.
