Farm Club's Pumpkin Cake

Tastemaker
Oct. 21, 2023

One never knows how long a dish will stay on Farm Club’s fresh, ever-rotating menu, so as soon as you finish reading this, get ye to the Leelanau County eatery! We were lucky to have a sunny October evening for dinner and luckier still to be among the first to sample Farm Club’s fall dessert, the Pumpkin Cake ($12). The name may be simple (as is the menu description: “pumpkin spice pepitas, toasted marshmallow”), but the cake is off the charts. It has all the pumpkin-y goodness you want this time of year with none of the sugar-filled, artificial tastes you find in so many autumnal desserts. Those pepitas are a treat unto themselves, and the marshmallow base not only looks amazing, but was plate-scraping delicious to boot. Grab a friend and a fork and get it before it’s gone. 10051 S.
