How awesome does that look ???

Looks good, but what the heck is a cherpumple????

I was just reading about this the other day on aol. I would love to try it just for fun.

That looks very interesting. Wonder how good it tastes??

Now that is what I call a dessert buffet on a plate! What a concept.

Interesting

I was just asked this morning if I would make one of these for a customer. I told her I am always up for a challenge. How fun.

I just showed this to my husband and he is already brainstorming new flavor possibilities!

Thanks for the infor everyone!

It does look delicious, but I wouldnt want to use it for a wedding cake etc- looks like a kitchen massacre once it's been cut!!

I loooove Charles! Best video and a great personality.

But I am not so in love with cherpumple. It is probably because I am not a pie fan.
I like pumpkin at the holidays and sometimes a good apple pie, but that is about it. However, the cakery where I work makes home made pies for the Thanksgiving holiday. So this year we are having pumpkin pie and caramel apple pie. The caramel apple may be the one that will convert me.

Still I don't think I would make a cherpumple. Maybe when I was 20, but (sigh) not now.

Looks like total fun...the video was worth a chuckle.

This would have gone great with last thanksgivings Turducken. I think I'll try one layer.. I don't know enough people to consume three!

Wouldn't it be better to put pie filling into the cake batter instead of putting a whole pie in?

Just a thought.

LOL, I love this idea!

Maureen, that's the genius of it! The pie crust contains the filling while baking. Otherwise, it would mix unevenly and you would get raw spots.

I'm sorry, but that's just gross. Bleh!

sounds like a great challenge for cake decorators! get this thing looking good! i might not invest in the ingredients to make a whole cherpumple, but it might be neat to do just one pie-in-cake. it'd be good for a laugh!

I can hear the arteries clogging with that creation! I'm all for cake and pie, but shoot, that puppy's obscene! lol!

I'm sure there are several talented people here that can make any cake beautiful, even a cherpumple. please post pics if you do!

I was thinking of the health factor. Not that I couldn't make it good.

Cool!! Thanks for sharing!!

Hmmm Lemon would be good too

Chocolate cake with cherry pie- mmm! It would be like a black forest cake, well- sorta!
