At last a cake we can all dig into

I was clicking through a blog about cake disasters that have befallen professional cooks, when I came across a post about the cake above. The post is titled: “Cake” Cruelty. Seems the cake is actually made of meat, and the blogger isn’t happy about it. Writes she: Read more »

Hat tip to Channa for sending it my way
