OMG...selling a used cake! Someone will probably be foolish enough to buy it.

Hey, for all of us trying to watch our figures and need a place to unload practice cakes.............that's a new idea. (might help to leave the name off the cake though) icon_wink.gif

Wowwie, it even has a plastic case to go along with Grant's cake instead of a baker's box. What a deal!

Hey, mocakes, I was going to post also that my son is named Grant! However, I've gotcha beat! His birthday is Feb. 11th! This would so "save" me from having to make a cake for him!!! icon_smile.gif Hmm, but he wants Superheroes on his cake. Do you think they'd throw in some little plastic figurines???

If someone from the government buys this cake would that make it a Federal Grant?

Is this a practical joke, certainly funny. "Used cake", best offer? Not me.

My Wilton instructor told us that someone in another class would post a Craigslist ad before every class for a cake for sale and let them have input on the design. She didn't want to take it home to her family because they were dieting or something.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's my email:
Hi! What flavor is the cake and what color are the candles? Can you email me a picture?
Thanks!


Here's his reply to my email:

Chocolate Cake with vanilla icing, yellow accents, measures about 1 foot x 8 inches, candles are pink, yellow, blue, and green all white stripes running down them (like a barber shop pole). I bet its very delicious. Let me know what you have to trade, thanks.

Grant

That is hilarious! Maybe Grant doesn't like cake.....OR....he just broke up with his girlfriend yesterday, she brought it to him today, and he's afraid it's poisoned!

Well, my guess is that someone had it sent to him for his big 25 bday and he's a health nut or something - or diabetic even... I wish I had that sort of will power to give up a WHOLE CAKE!!!

but I still think it's funny that he's trying to get something for it!
