LOUISVILLE — The cake shop is tiny, with one round table and one baking oven and a hunger-inducing aroma. It’s tucked in behind a Dutch Bros Coffee drive-thru on Fairfax Ave., sharing building space with a hearing aid center. Across the street is Trinity High School, which is integral to this tale.
SissyCakes, owned and operated in the St. Matthews neighborhood by sisters Debbie Nutt Stein and Blakey Nutt Martin, stops selling at 4 p.m. Monday to Thursday. But on this particular afternoon, the batter mixing and mold pouring and icing squeezing continue well past closing time. There is a big order to fill for the weekend. Another one.
