What makes the recipe special:

My Aunt Sally was a famous caterer in Long Beach for many years. When I asked her if she would give me the recipe for her delicious apple cake, she said, “Janet dear, a caterer never gives away her secrets.” About a week later, I received a letter in the mail from Aunt Sally with the recipe. She asked me not to give away her secret. My dear Aunt Sally has passed away, but her delicious Apple Cake lives on and I feel it an honor to her to share the secret recipe!
