One Cake to End Them All

Yesterday, I stopped into the History Museum to pick up a few more postcards for my other favorite hobby...Postcrossing.  Little did I know that not only did the gift shop have plenty of cake memorabilia, but also 1 (and a half) more cakes for me to find!  After buying myself a Cakeway T-shirt, poster, ornament, and several cake postcards, I made my way over to the final cakes that were located just down the hall.  This final large cake is called the Reunion Cake.  It works to bring several of the cake locations together in one final cake to be enjoyed by visitors to the museum before the 250 exhibit closes on February 15, 2015.  A small gold cake is also on display.  This cake will be placed in a time capsule that will be opened when St. Louis celebrates it's 300th birthday!  I'm so happy I chose to visit the museum when I did so that I could see these final two additions!

Coolest Christmas Gift for a Cake Hunter!

By far one of my favorite Christmas gifts I received this past Christmas was a paper-mache cake detailed with designs about my life here in Saint Louis.  I love it! It's also great to have something cake related constantly on display in our apartment now that the hunt is officially over!

The first layer is dedicated to the stl250 logo with a St. Louis skyline.  The next layer shows Concordia Seminary, where we live. The final layer shows Word of Life, the school where I teach, complete with this year's theme!
