Demise of Mr. Flamingo cake by Lauren Hanson

Description

This is not the story of three bakers. This is a story about three friends - Cassia, Nikki, and Lauren. One day, Lauren got a phone call from Nikki. Their favorite tee-shirt line had a cake decorating contest! So the three put their heads together and poured over the designs for the world's most fierce and adorable shirt. Finally, a design was chosen! They drew up a plan and set to meet.

Cassia and Lauren brought the cakes, while Nikki provided the bakery. For ten hours, the three kneaded fondant and spread frosting, carving the once-barren cakes into a masterpiece. There were many spilled food-colorings and countless "What would the Ace of Cakes do?" but at long last, the cake was done.

With the sort of cake-carnivorous energy that comes only from lack of sleep and suger high, the three plunged into the cake. Mr. Flamingo didn't need his tasty tasty neck anyways. The gnomes would have been proud.
