Hungry?

We're having a bake sale tomorrow at work and I made two forms of chocolate cake to bring in and sell. Hopefully people like them:



I'm a little concerned because the lids hide the yummy cake inside, but I'm planning on posting the above picture and all the little containers are labeled with what sort of frosting they have. I thought these were my best option for packing frosted cake individually. I think people will figure it out! :)

I don't know. Some people are kind of slow. Maybe you should just call the whole thing off. I would even be willing to take the cake off your hands. That way you don't have to worry about it at all.

Why are you having a bake sale? Is GM doing poorly on sales this quarter and you are trying to keep your job? That seems a little sad.

The cake sold pretty well, actually. Homemade scratch cake tends to do that :)

The bake sale was a fundraiser for the food drive. The team that raises the most money gets free pie. Large companies have these sorts of random things!

Chocolate. Yumm!! I work for a large company and we don't do random things, well not any that we want the public to know about.

Maybe your company is just too large. We're big but 95% of us are in one building :)

We are the nation's largest employer.

Dad wants to know if there will be chocolate cake the next time we are there.

Making cakes reminds me of a story (what doesn't remind a Wernimont of a story really). Anyway. I have 3-dimensional rubber ducky cake pan (google search it, i'm sure you'll find a photo) and I think the most fun I had with it was make a red velvet cake with it and frost it heavily so you couldnt see the red. So when you cut into it it was all red. I really wish I had put some raspberries inside for guts, that would have super rad.

Steph - "Super Rad"? After the cassette player post? You are an 80s child :) Don't feel bad though, Nick thought of a way to get back at me today. You may not know this, but I always tease him about being "almost 30". Today he came back with "when I was your age..." What a dork :)

Nancy - I'll consider that a request for next time. Does he want the vanilla or the chocolate frosting? I actually made two whole cakes for the bake sale.

Well Steph, your story reminded me of a story (hmmm...seems to be genetic). I once made a red red cake (we used 3 bottles of red food coloring). Then frosted it with a brain drawn in the frosting. I got an A on the cake and the class. Projects that you can eat are always enjoyed by the teachers.

Erin's comments are just too funny. Seth's kind of scared me. And I'm helping Nancy's employer be the biggest with my eBay nonsense. Cakes, TWO cakes, from scratch sounds awfully ambitious Karin!

Yes Erin I agree. Which reminds me of my earth science class in high school we were doing the planets chapter and we all had to do a class presentation. I got to make Uranus out of cookies, it was the best anus I've ever eaten.
