Obviously, the Spanish bar cake is popular because I see several nostalgic articles about it as well as recipes. It’s very similar to a cake my mother used to buy - only with chocolate icing. It looks delicious and NO cloves. I may try it, so thanks for bringing it to my attention.
When did the A&P stop making it?
You’re welcome. I don’t know when they stopped. If they’re even still in business, they’ve probably gone through several corporate takeovers by now. It’s been 40 years since they left the upper Midwest.
