Lorraine McCoy

Lorraine McCoy was not only a master of the kitchen, but also a woman of deep faith, devotion, and love for her family and her home state of Texas. 

Lorraine's love for baking and cooking was legendary in Refugio, where she catered countless weddings, potlucks, and get-togethers. When she saw how many fruitcakes went uneaten during Christmas, she decided to take matters into her own hands. With the precision of a scientist and the passion of a chef, Lorraine created the perfect blend of pecans and other local ingredients to make the Texas Pecan Cake. 

So when you take a bite of Lorraine's famous cake, know that you're not just tasting a delicious treat - you're also experiencing a piece of Texas history, crafted with love by a woman who lived a life devoted to God, Texas, and family.
