About me: OUR CAKES ESCAPED! DID YOU 'TAKE THE CAKE'?
THE GREAT CAKE ESCAPE
we would love to see cakes invading the streets every day...
So get baking, cake crusaders, and a trail of brightly coloured treats shall populate the urban landscape forever more!
from baker street to old street...
from spitalfields to hoxton square...
here, there and everywhere...
find me//read me//take me//EAT...
if you dare.
