Sweet Revenge: The Cake

Posted by Maureen Dempsey on Thu, 06/12/2008 - 11:48am

Suzanne Maxwell built her Lovin' Oven bakery in Lancaster, TX, by specializing in wedding cakes. Then a customer came into her bakery at 181 Historic Town Square (972 227 4425) and asked for a cake to celebrate her divorce. Since then, Maxwell has done dozens of cakes (only one for a man). Sometimes the groom appears at the top, head down. Sometimes the ex-wives ask for special messages. The cakes, needless to say, are shared with friends. The video on local station WOAI in San Antonio, TX, is here.

If you were making a divorce cake, what would it look like? What would it say? And how would you serve it? Comment with your ideas.
