Hello
Somewhere out there is a cake recipe for "Coca Cola Cake." It uses a bottle of coke (no kidding).
It might be a sheet cake.
I would love to have that recipe. The cake is delicious
Thanks,
Adele

I am looking for the recipe for the tomato sauce from a RI restaurant that closed years back named Asquino's. It was the best.
Thanks.
