Why We Love It

Black Hound’s cakes, black pepper cookies and hamantaschen have earned accolades from the New York Times and from the obsessive customers who flock to their Manhattan shop. Bakers work with top-of-the-line ingredients, finishing each cake by hand. Don’t forget to let these beauties, which arrive frozen, come to room temperature before eating: As the Gilt Taste staff discovered, their freshness shines once they’ve warmed up a bit.
