Alex and Sondra Posner appeared on "Good Morning America" on Tuesday to demonstrate how viewers can make their viral dot cakes at home.
Google Trends showed search interest in "dot cake" surged more than 850% in a week, driving heavy demand for the sprinkle-coated cake-in-a-cup.
Butterfield Market in New York City has sold the desserts in limited-time drops that drew lines around Upper East Side blocks, while the founders said they are pushing their team to the limit.
The craze has also split consumers and inspired riffs beyond dessert, including savory versions made with ingredients such as potatoes, caviar and sushi fillings.
