I'd hoped you would, since as you say, despite it being a site geared for kid parties, there was a LOT of train related "goodies" to sort through and many of them would work for adult parties, too. _________________________ Boomer in Chief of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com www.boomerlifestyle.com www.boomerco.com

I especially remember watching an episode related to making a cake for a Zoo Party. Phenomenal what they go through to deliver the cakes. I'd say that if she were to engage them Dee will need to have their crew drive the cake to the party. AND while I bet it would be VERY PRICEY it would be an indelible memory for the party. She'd need to take lots of pictures!! _________________________ Boomer in Chief of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com www.boomerlifestyle.com www.boomerco.com

Dee Member Registered: 06/27/05 Posts: 2561 Loc: Alabama	Oh no...I have no idea who the Ace of Cakes is...I take it come kind of TV show? Do you ask them about doing cakes? Do you think they'd make one for a 3rd generation RR guy down south in Alabama? Don't I wish I had the money for something like that...Larry would be so blown away. I am thinking of having a Mexican Pinita in the shape of a train and letting him whack the heck out of it to vent his frustrations for having to put up with the RR for 35 plus years. Thanks for the support and ideas you guys. And if anyone has any personal contact with Ace of Cakes, have them call me...:) _________________________ Dee "They will be able to say that she stood in the storm and when the wind did not blow her away....and surely it has not.....she adjusted her sails" - Elizabeth Edwards

Anne Holmes Boomer in Chief Registered: 03/12/10 Posts: 3212 Loc: Illinois	I don't have any personal connection with Duff Goldman, whose Food Network TV Show is called "Ace of Cakes." But I do know his bakery is called "Charm City Cakes." Here is the link to their website, and I believe you can find a phone number for them on the site... Charm City Cakes I took a quick look on their site and discovered that the MINIMUM they charge for a cake is $1,000, so I expect it will not prove cost effective to get Duff to make your cake. But maybe if you call them they can recommend a bakery in your area that might be up to the level of work they do.
