Ace of Cakes Won't Be Your Friend if You Mess Up the Vote



Locally produced Ace of Cakes is starting to film its sixth season. The show airs weekly on The Food Network.

Production and other business obligations keep the crew of this bad boy very very busy. So busy in fact, I don't know when owner and star Duff Goldman finds enough time to churn out his confectionery creations. Or as they're otherwise known in the biz -- vanity cakes.

Okay, I made that up. Nobody actually refers to these works of art as vanity anything. They're fancified cakes in the shape of any image you like, a big plus for those harboring an artistic sweet tooth. A word of caution, however. Charm City Bakery is booked through the end of this year.

So, when Duff and the gang aren't busy making cakes or filming reality TV, how do they keep busy? By getting out the vote, silly. Even scary bakers with blue colander hats and cake knife pitchforks think participation in the right to vote is a matter of vital importance.

Based on the sign she's holding, the woman in green must either be an illegal immigrant or convicted felon. Either that or she has some obsessive-compulsive desire to avoid jury duty. Wonder how she'll keep busy on Novembet 4th.

Not. So very not.
