The Elvis cake, a memory book among Oprah's Favorite Things

NEW YORK (AP) — A Kardashian-worthy phone case rimmed with tiny lights, a keepsake book of "Letters to My Love" and a banana, peanut butter and chocolate cake called the Elvis are among Oprah's Favorite Things of 2015.

While declaring the sugary Elvis namesake from Carousel Cakes "stupid good," she also put the traditional holiday yule log on notice by including a deep-dish cherry pie made by a California bakery, Sweet Lady Jane.
