Meet the Chicago pastry chef who created television's must-have dessert
has become an object of obsession, with fans rushing to replicate the recipe or seek out a slice for themselves.the chocolate cake is the creation of aspiring pastry chef Marcus, portrayed by Lionel Boyce. When the character baked his first chocolate cake, it supposedly tasted great — “whoa” great, as his sous chef, Sydney, played by Ayo Edebiri, described it. But as viewers come to learn, Marcus is a perfectionist.
She initially adapted her recipe from the mini layered chocolate cake that pastry chef Mindy Segal made at Chicago's now-closed MK, the first restaurant where Mispagel-Lustbader worked. Over the next decade, she continued to tweak the cake formula, swappingfor sour cream for more moisture; adding a delicate, lightly sweet Italian meringue buttercream; and sandwiching the layers with fluffy chocolate mousse.
For episode seven, which was mostly filmed in one extremely hectic, continuous shot, Mispagel-Lustbader made a whopping 12 chocolate cakes. “Because they weren’t sure how many times we were going to have to shoot it,” she notes. Luckily, it took only four takes, so the remaining cakes were shared among the cast and crew.
