you can also bake one, which helps alleviate some of the guilt.
You need a car… to buy cake…?
Opening hours would like to differ. Also your wallet.
I have a pantry and an oven. I am, at most, 45 minutes away from having cake at any given time.
Okay but this is about going to the shop and buying one.
Classic old joke:
Guy comes into a bakery, asks for a birthday cake, but has very specific instructions: it has to be German chocolate, with rich, creamy chocolate frosting. Also he wants it in the shape of an ‘S’, he’s very insistent on that.
And he’s gonna stand there and wait until his cake is ready, so they have to make it NOW!
So the baker mixes all the ingredients, pours it into pans, and while it bakes, with the guy watching him closely, he expertly prepares the frosting. Once the cake is done baking, he takes it out, and sculpts out the S shape, using frosting to hold it together. He then covers it in frosting, gives it a nice, professional looking texture, adds some icing rosettes, and even fashions a rose out of frosting.
The baker then presents the cake to the customer, to get his approval. “Is the’S’ shape to your liking?”
The guy says it looks great! So the baker brings out a cake box to pack the cake, but the customer stops him: “Don’t bother boxing it. I’ll be eating it here!”
I don’t get it, why the s shape?
