Looks like it was a good turnout, sorry we missed it. Does the cake still look like that?

All

I thought the 2x4 was just a demo piece.

The cakes sure weren't. They were great.

Rob really put on another great get together.

It keeps getting bigger and bigger every year.

Thanks to everyone that had a chance to join in on the fun.

Just a reminder the Extravaganza is always the first Sunday in May so mark your calendars for next year.

Also keep your eyes open for announcements on the next fall get together this year in Ohio.

It sounds like another great opportunity is on the way.

Wish I could have made the trip down, especially since there's a Mustang convert hiding in Rob's shop.  :icon_biggrin:

My '05 GT wouldn't have felt lonely. Ended up working last Saturday.

Thanks for the photos!  :icon_salut:  :cheers2:

Cake with "icing printing?" (Re: 65Gran Sport Division meeting)
« Reply #57 on: May 08, 2018, 10:52:51 AM »
Dear Chuck, Milton, Tom, and mid-60s Buick lovers with a sweet-tooth,

Meet the cake's Big Brother!

Ah ha!  Okay that gave me the name of the company that made the cake: Four Brothers:

https://www.coborns.com/four-brothers

However, that doesn't tell me how they made these cakes.  Do these guys have something equivalent to a "ink-jet" printer that, instead of ink, squirts icing?  If so that is really cool!  :glasses9:

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:
