Originating from Georgia, Lane cake is a layered masterpiece with vibrant fillings and an illustrious past. Legend credits Emma Rylander Lane with winning a prize for her signature cake at a fair in the late 1800s, which rapidly gained fame. The cake's batter involves creaming butter and sugar, then adding sifted cake flour, baking powder, and salt, alternating with milk and folded in beaten egg whites for lightness.
