Cake Fact: The Boston Cream Pie is, in fact, a cake, not a pie. It was created at Boston's Parker House Hotel in 1856 and was named a "pie" because cakes and pies were often baked in the same pans at the time, blurring the lines between the two terms. It consists of two layers of sponge cake filled with vanilla custard and topped with a chocolate glaze, and it was officially named the state dessert of Massachusetts in 1996.
