I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. Chinese buffet sheet cake? On what planet?
Comment on Who makes those terrible sheet cake things that every Chinese buffet has?

Which cakes? I’ve searched my entire brain catalogue for Chinese cakes and I must say it was pretty empty. I didn’t know there were a particularly bad type sold at school cafeterias and cheap takeaways

They usually have fruit, jello, pudding, and a shitty soft serve machine where I’m from lol

Might be a regional thing. I’ve seen these in a hotel in Turkey.

Not on my planet at least, that’s why I asked

I am literally in actual China today and I have no idea what cake they mean.

I think where I live most mainstream asian restaurants don’t showcase their desserts as much as their other dishes. You’ve just made me realise this. It’s like you need to actually search for them on the menu to find them, unlike with western style restaurants which clearly have cakes and sweets on display. I recall places selling a variety of asian cakes and sweets but they’re niche… This explains why my mental repertoire is so empty.
Ma Lai Gao. It’s on my list now, I must try this!
