This is a recipe is adapted from the anime Black Butler!!! When Sebastian prepares tea for Ciel, he always makes sure to have a delectable dessert waiting to be devoured. This time around, during Season 1 of Episode “His Butler, Capricious”, our favorite butler makes a Blackberry Cornmeal Cake. Truly simple, but amazingly delicious, this cake will make any proper butler proud. Maybe even Sebastian would take a bite!
