Bob Kerekes is an American classic. So are the cars he shows off at the New York International Auto Show.

Not far from the show's entrance, attendees this year got a closeup look at some of Detroit's most iconic creations.

"These cars represent what I remember when I was in high school," said Kerekes.

His Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz, 1958 Buick and Packard Caribbean draw crowds and inspire nostalgia. Bob says they're classics that "will never be duplicated again. This is the true the golden age of cars."

According to Kerekes, the cars' unique paint jobs help set them apart compared to their counterparts. He points out how the Cadillac's "color is extremely rare, that green." Lavish interiors with wooden dashboards, chrome trim and methodical upholstery make the inside just as striking.

Kerekes is excited to have somewhere he can share his passion for vintage cars with enthusiastic guests/

"I love that people can see what was and appreciate what was," Bob says, sitting in his Packard. And what better occasion for it than the New York International Auto Show's 125th anniversary?

Kerekes knew that this year's event was "going to be huge."

This Strawberry Dessert Was Made to Steal the Whole Table

Some desserts sit politely in the corner, but a Southern strawberry punch bowl cake is designed to command the center of the table. Layers of tender cake, juicy strawberries, and cool creamy filling build against the sides of a clear bowl, showing off every color and texture before anyone takes the first serving. The berries bring freshness, the cream makes each spoonful soft and luxurious, and the cake absorbs enough of the surrounding flavor to become even better as it chills. Instead of precise slices, this dessert offers generous scoops where the layers mingle together, making every bowlful slightly different. It feels festive without becoming formal and nostalgic without looking dated. Once the serving spoon reaches the bottom and lifts all those layers at once, people understand why punch bowl cakes have remained such beloved gathering desserts.

Remember the White Candy That Seemed to Appear in Every Grandma’s Christmas Tin?

Divinity is one of those old-fashioned candies that can instantly bring back a kitchen you haven’t stood in for years. Light, fluffy, and almost cloud-like, it’s nothing like dense fudge or chewy caramel. The outside sets with a delicate finish while the center stays soft and airy, with that unmistakable melt-away sweetness that made it a holiday candy-table favorite. It looks deceptively simple, but anyone who grew up watching a grandmother, aunt, or church-supper expert make a batch probably remembers there was a little technique involved. When it turns out right, those snowy spoonfuls look beautiful piled onto a platter—and somehow taste even better after you’ve spent years wondering why people stopped making them.

This Is the Cherry Dessert I’d Make When Company Is Coming in 20 Minutes

Some desserts need hours of careful baking, cooling, and decorating. This cherry angel food cake lush is what you make when the clock says you don’t have that kind of time. Soft, airy pieces of angel food cake meet cool, creamy layers and juicy cherries for a dessert that tastes far more put-together than its 20-minute prep suggests. The cake soaks up just enough of that sweet cherry goodness while still keeping its light, fluffy texture, and the creamy filling gives every spoonful that old-fashioned potluck-dessert richness. It’s bright, soft, fruity, and wonderfully messy in the way the best chilled desserts tend to be. Put it in a pretty serving dish and nobody needs to know how little time you actually spent in the kitchen.
