Shipping Iced Cakes
Dear Aunt Daisy, I heard’ you asking about sending an iced cake overseas. Well, my daughter was married four years ago to’an American boy, and we posted the top tier of her cake to his people in Louisiana. It arrived in perfect condition with not a ‘scrap of icing broken. My husband packed the cake in a tin and packed bran tightly around it. Then he drove two steel pins right through tin and all, and screwed a nut on the outside and the cake never moved. I might mention that as it was during the war, it took four months to reach its destination. "Mt, Albert."
