Welcome back to "Most-Ordered," Eater's series spotlighting the dishes diners can't stop ordering. In this episode, we visit Claud in NYC's East Village, where the seven-layer devil's food cake has become an instant classic. Chef Joshua Pinsky walks us through the process behind this indulgent dessert, which sells over 1,500 slices a month. From the moist sponge to the perfect ratio of frosting, see why this towering cake has taken over New York and why it's the restaurant's most-ordered dish.
