There is a Day of the Dead bridal couple at the center, which Dave didn&#8217;t get into the photo&#8230; a warning that this cake is not meant for the faint of heart. It begins as a smoky tingle of heat on your second bite, but that doesn&#8217;t seem to stop anyone from finishing it.<\/p>\n<p>Good with beer or a dark red wine.
