A recipe worth passing down
Victor McIntyre Sr. — known to everyone as Strollaz — didn't just bake cakes. He created moments. Friends, family, and customers all across New York knew that when Strollaz made his Caribbean Black Cake, something special was about to happen.
"He'd sit back, watch everyone take that first bite, and just smile. That was his joy — seeing people light up."
Some customers couldn't even make it home. They'd finish the whole cake before they got through the door — and their spouses never saw a single slice. Nobody blamed them.
Rooted in the spice traditions of Grenada, his recipe was never meant to be kept secret. It was meant to be shared — at Christmas tables, birthday celebrations, and everywhere in between. Now his son Victor carries that recipe forward, one cake at a time, honoring the man behind it and the joy he gave so freely.
This is that cake. And it was made for you.
