Salted Dark Chocolate Espresso Cake With Lucie Franc De Ferriere Of From Lucie
Today’s guest is Lucie Franc de Ferriere, the self-taught baker and founder of From Lucie, the beloved East Village bakery known for its whimsical, flower-festooned cakes and other treats. Raised in the French countryside, Lucie grew up eating her mother’s homemade cakes, but it wasn’t until decades later, when she was living in New York working in the art world, that she discovered her love for baking. Today, her creations are always in demand, and she’s one of the cover stars of Cherry Bombe’s new Cake Issue.
Lucie joins host Jessie Sheehan to talk about her journey from art history student to full-time baker, the pop-ups that helped launch her business, and the serendipitous beginnings of her signature decorating style. She shares memories from her childhood in France and discusses the creative process behind her upcoming debut cookbook, “Cake From Lucie.”
Then, Lucie walks Jessie through one of the bakery’s bestsellers: Salted Dark Chocolate Espresso Cake. It’s her spin on the ultimate birthday cake, and it’s covered in a luscious buttercream, complete with mini chocolate chips tucked between the layers.
Thank you to Diamond Nuts, California Prunes, and King Arthur Baking for their support.
