Run by one of the city's top pastry chefs, Sweet Surrender is a frequent winner of Best of Louisville awards. I find the desserts here variable, though. They're never worse than good and sometimes great, but I can't rate them consistently best. A chocolate caramel cake was perfection, too, managing to be both rich and airy, with delicious caramel frosting that stays on the right side of the line between dark, silken caramel and mere burnt sugar. A slice of chocolate meringue pie brought us back on course, though, with its rich, pudding-like filling and light meringue in a good flaky crust.
