A staple New Orleanian confection. Decadently sweet, and overwhelmingly rich, doberge usually has 6 or 7 thin alternating layers of cake and pudding (though some use buttercream), and is topped with a glaze. The most popular flavors are lemon and chocolate, and it is often served as a mix between the two. The doberge cake was invented by Beulah Ledner in 1933 as a modification of the Hungarian "Dobos torte," but the most famous New Orleanian rendition of this desert has been made by Gambino's bakery since 1946.

Sky Cake. (as in, "Oh, sky cake...) Interjection. Spoken in order to quell anger against fundamental religious dogma.
Sky Cake, from the Patton Oswalt comedy routine of the same name, refers to the promise of an afterlife as part of the dogma of many religions. In the earliest days of Mankind, posits Oswalt, the promise of sky-cake by the weaker members of society to the biggest and strongest, was what made them quit "killing and raping", thereby allowing civilization to begin. The problem arising when different religions began to squabble over the particular sky-dessert.

From Oswalt:
"So the next time you see some douchebags in front of an abortion clinic, or trying to ban a Harry Potter novel, just say to yourself 'Oh, sky cake... why are you so delicious?'"

The act of several people excreting in a enemy or rival's toilet.The (multiple) excretions are continuous and are,at no point until completely finished, to be flushed. Instead, 'layers' are only separated by toilet paper. The end result - which,incidentally, can be expanded by 'icing' or 'finishing touches'- should resemble a (multi)layer cake.
Benny: Hey?!! WTF someone flushed away the layer cake.
Connor: Dont worry. Lets layercake bührers bathroom tommorow again when he is not at home, so the smell can spread.
Sameer: Homeboys, ya layer caking again?

The traditional Mardi Gras circular cake: festively iced with purple, gold, and green frosting. A small bean or plastic doll baby is inserted somewhere in each one. The one who gets this has to provide the king cake next year.
We had the traditional New Orleans king cake. As, as is tradition, it was not very good this year, either. Still, it's a reminder of New Orleans: the best damned city in the country. Even though it's down now, it will come back, so hang loose and let the good times roll.
