Charity "cake-off" photoessay

[DrLeftover]

Event coverage and photo page:

The tools these masters of their craft use are as varied as the artisans themselves. Objects seen in use that day, besides things that you would expect like icing knives and rolling pins, included a cheese slicer, a hair drier, dental picks, razor knives, and other items more often associated with the building trades. Such as a power drill, galvanized pipe, dowel rods, and plywood. Oh, and to make his cast sugar waves cooperate, Dana used a propane torch.

But of course, all of the sugar work, and cereal treat carving, and spray painting (with food grade dyes of course) and all the rest was subsidiary to the cause.

The entire event was to help support the Special Olympics...

What a wonderful and fun charity event. These people are so talented and bless them for raising all that money for the Special Olympics! The bear cake was awesome!

Thank you so much for sharing this with us!

I've gotten quite a bit of positive feedback on it.



Including a note that Carmelo, the baker with the bag of sugar in the photo above, liked it.
