Southern Comfort

Tennessee T-Cakes

Stop right there, missy.

No more whistling Dixie. (It’s giving us a migraine.) Undo that silly corset. (The lack of oxygen to your brain is causing total psychosis.) And for heaven’s sake, stop claiming to have a case of the vapors. (It’s not 1835.)

The way to be a true Southern belle? With Tennessee T-Cakes.

The tasty confections were the secret weapon of a lady who knew that mouthwatering treats are the only true way to gain a beau’s affection. She got her man, and, more than 100 years later, you get her sweet, chewy, butter-filled creations ready-made.

But you don’t have to rely on just the original flavor to keep the gents at your table. Now there’s also Key lime, luscious lemon, and even chocolate truffle to choose from.

And because they come in bags of two or packs with as many as six dozen, you can always keep them on hand — say, as a midnight snack for a fatigued paramour. With offerings like these to revive him, you can be sure of one thing.  

The South won’t be the only thing to rise again.
