No, it’s just my own coffee cake.
I’ve not heard of the burnt sugar cake.
I would think the burnt sugar cake would imply a caramel flavor.
You ever make caramel ? I don’t have much actual experience with caramel.
The only candy I’ve ever made is a cocoa fudge from the Betty Crocker’s Cookbook for Boys and Girls, which I mentioned in a previous Cooking thread. I once made a spun-sugar ‘cage’ to go over a pie, and that was fun; but haven’t really mastered sugar-cooking.
But I LOVE penuche!
Call For Papers, here!

If you ever have the undistracted time and attention, boil cans of sugared milk - carnation - in water for 4 hours adding water constantly to replace boiloff let the cans cool and you will have the most delicious caramel ever. Cover the pot.
