The cake is ugly. It’s a shade somewhere between deep brown and beige, an unglamorous and uniform rectangle. It’s best served after being tightly wrapped in aluminum foil for a day or two, so the presentation is anything but elegant. And once plated, the slices still look relatively mundane: long, narrow, trailing a few crumbs as they’re cut and served.
