The Language of Cake

[Headgardener]

Gosh, something about that has me welling up!

I'm thrilled that you've all taken to this so well. We should be able to publish a book soon, complete with Victorian decoupage type illustrations.

We were wondering if any cake associated with a country should carry connotations of national stereotypes - Dutch Apple cake for relaxation, sachertorte for efficiency, profiteroles (not quite cake though) for romantic passion.

Actually, forget the language of cakes, I already think of profiteroles with a certain degree of passion.

Keep the ideas coming...

Ah a girl after me own heart. I also am passionate about profiteroles.

So, parkin should stand for murderous and regicidal treachery? Excellent! This is becoming quite a comprehensive language!

Forgetfulness - that very light airy sponge the supermarkets call angel cake, because it's sort of transitory.

Well, it could be, but think of the crumbs....
