Coca Cola Cake

June 7, 2011

There is no denying that Coca-Cola is the world's leader in soft drinks.  The drink was first made popular in 1886 by John Pemberton in Atlanta, Georgia.  Pemberton created the drink as a result of the passing of prohibition laws.  Since that time, cooking with cola has been a Southern tradition.  It is used extensively in baking and barbecue.   This cake is a result of that early experimentation.
