Baby Cakes Thornless Blackberry is a dwarf variety of the deciduous shrub that produces two crops a year, in summer and fall.  The white rose-like flowers give way to large blackberries with the classic sweet taste.  Fruits best in full sun and rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils.  Baby Cakes begins fruiting in its second year and is self-pollinating, and moderately drought tolerant once established.
