Bova's is a 24-hour family-owned bakery that opened in 1932. Its Boston Cream Pie is said to be made of yellow cake, but unlike most places, it also uses chocolate cream alongside vanilla cream and chocolate ganache. So, basically, it is a very chocolatey treat. Bova's Boston Cream Cake is $8 a piece, but half a sheet costs $125.
