Gooey Butter Cake is basically heaven on earth. It will send shivers down your spine and make you feel like you are floating through the air without a care in the world. This versions happens to be the St. Louis version. Honestly, we don’t really know what that means or what sets it apart from other versions in the world. The tasty bastard team is from the Midwest and do frequent STL, but we definitely don’t root for their sports teams. The arch is fine (you should go up in it if you haven’t) and clearly, they know dessert.
