I just got the most exciting invite I’ve had in ages. A friend texted me a snap of herself indulging in a cake and wrote, “I’ve got a homemade funfetti sheet cake right here. Bring a fork and come over!” Naturally, I couldn’t resist, and I bet you wouldn’t either.
Unless you’ve been hiding away, you’ve probably noticed that sheet cake has become quite the sensation. Our cravings have only intensified thanks to the hilarious segment from comedian Lisa Grant on a recent episode of Weekend Update. She hilariously pointed out that “sheet caking is a grassroots movement,” emphasizing that many women have been enjoying this weekly ritual since the election.
Lisa humorously suggested that diving into a massive sheet cake with just a fork—no plates necessary—might be a better choice than getting caught up in heated political debates. While opinions on her proposal may vary, one thing is clear: the thought of sinking your fork into a fluffy, moist cake generously frosted with creamy icing is undeniably tempting.
And of course, sprinkles! They’re vibrant and joyful, reminding us of better times. Lisa’s enthusiasm about the trend makes it feel completely acceptable to indulge without any guilt. She advised, “Support a local business, perhaps an African-American-owned bakery, and order a cake adorned with the American flag… then just eat it.”
Alternatively, you could join in this “grassroots movement” by baking your own cake and enjoying it in the comfort of your home. A Texas sheet cake, for instance, from The Pioneer Woman, is bound to satisfy. Or, why not try a peanut butter sheet cake from Tasty Kitchen? If you’re feeling adventurous, layer it on top of a chocolate cake for an indulgent treat.
You can’t go wrong with a classic homemade funfetti cake from Sally’s Baking Addiction, especially when it’s topped with delightful vanilla frosting. And if you’re a coffee lover, a Coca-Cola cake from Averie Cooks will hit the spot.
If you’re looking for something a bit healthier (or at least with a hint of nutrition), check out a pumpkin sheet cake from Six Sisters’ Stuff. It has pumpkin, so it’s practically health food, right?
But if all this sounds like too much work, don’t hesitate to grab that nostalgic box of Funfetti cake mix from the store, whip up some frosting, and enjoy it straight from the pan. Pure bliss!
