Project Bacon Cake
Sales promotion gurus McGowan Crain, based in St. Louis, contacted us this week to assist in knocking the socks off their Barton Brands client in celebration of a birthday.
We took the fun assignment and went above the call of duty to create a vanilla/almond cake batter and sprinkled in bacon pieces. Baked in two, nine-inch round pans, then assembled with bacon and a sugar-based icing and topped with bacon spirals to simulate candles.
The birthday bacon masterpiece was delivered to an over-joyed client this afternoon. He repeated several times, “This is awesome. So awesome. This is the best birthday gift EVER!”
YAY, Snackbox!

This actually sounds delicious. Only thing to make it better would have been some of Mo’s Bacon Bar crumbled up around it…
