Cake Shake USA in the East Village is offering plant-based and traditional milkshakes in funky combinations. The concept by Zach Neil (the guy behind Beetle House) includes items like the Shake Rattle and Roll with "Elvis" chocolate cake, peanut butter, maple glazed bacon, freeze dried banana cubes, fresh caramel and chocolate straws. There's also a shimmering golden shake called the "Bling Bomb," and the Showtime Shake with black-and-white cookies, Oreos, salted grasshoppers and gummy bears. Cake Shake USA is truly a new adventure in sugar town.
