01 / The story of this place

Make time for these

Grannies Pound Cake is a small Detroit bakery on 8 Mile Road that does one thing: classic pound cake. The cakes are moist and buttery with a rich vanilla flavor and a light glaze, the kind that makes people think of their grandmother's kitchen. Whole cakes serve 12 or more, and minis come in flavors like Butter Classic and Butter Lemon, which makes them an easy holiday gift.

  2. Whole cakes for 12+ or grab-and-go minis
