    Anyone who knows me knows I love cake. Imagine my surprise to discover that these cakes are entirely made of plant material! These are all from the Canada Blooms show last weekend.
    The first is my favorite ... I love chocolate cake more than anything and this one looks good enough to eat, don't you think?

    WOW! what an imagination to think up a cake category for a plant show. They did a great job on them.

    If you hadn't told us they were made out of plant meterial I would have thought they were just beautifully crafted cakes. I'd have been tempted to cut a slice of that chocolate one and give it a try.

    That first one makes my mouth water and makes me want a piece and I don't even like chocolate, except our fellow Stewbie from Australia, and I really don't like cake.....LOL

    I love cake and I would have loved to see those in real life. I think it would be wise if I brought my own cake to munch as I walked through the exhibition or else they might miss an item or two. :p
