I see no one likes CAKE then so when you go to starbucks or any other coffee chain you have never odered CAKE? or had a birthday CAKE on you birthday HuH!
I know - I'm sorry. Not sure what came over me, I can be too rude.
Actually, I have a Bernhard willhelm book, it has some images of crochet cakes and other baked food items. I think they may be small hats that his mother knitted for one of his collections. There are probably images online somewhere. Anyway - yeah sorry for being a bitch.
in my country, we had a lot of ridiculous cakes, especially at birthday parties, any chils can make their dream cake come true, on my 4th birhday, i had my birthday cake shaped like an old castle, with 3 castles in different colours.
I was working on the Bernhard Willhelm show Valentine speaks of and the cake baking theme was definately linked to a kind of nostalgic feeling, and its quite hard not to feel like a child in Patisserie Valerie- A fab cake shop in London Soho (and elsewhere)
And yes cake is riddiculessly kitch- does it have something to do with old ladies? They rock, but they are Very kitch!
