THE APPLICATION IS IN…

My wife and I have been joking about wanting to do a “Cake Challenge” for years. And likewise, customers have wondered when we would go for it. Well… it looks as though our time in the national spotlight may be approaching! A couple weeks ago, Ellen received an interesting phone call from a woman claiming to be a producer from a popular cable network. She came across our website… loved what she saw… and wanted us to submit an application (and video) for an upcoming Cake Challenge pilot! We’re still trying to wrap our brains around the idea. The deadline to submit the materials is April 17th. So we put together a video spot, and created a sculpture cake as an example of the type of work we put out (the cake came out GREAT – based on Aesop’s Fable, The Lion & the Mouse/Thorn… or whatever it’s called. Only time will tell whether we’re accepted into the challenge or not. If we are, the network will fly us both out to LA sometime in May for a couple of days to compete. We’ll keep you all posted as to what happens with this – could be very exciting!!!
