Meetings with cakes
 
I've just come out of a 3 hour meeting where rather than the usual crap sandwiches and quiche slices, there were a mountain of cakes. Cream slices, danishes, donuts, muffins - you name it.

I stuffed my face all the way through the meeting.

It made the whole experience more enjoyable.

How to get fat...

Had the title read 'A meeting with fruitcakes' the content of the thread could very well be about one of my works meetings! :D

PS, You'll get fat! ;)

One 3 hour cake session isn't to turn me into a bloater any more than a night on the piss followed by a curry is.

I did drink coffee in between so it was a health balance.

Had a consultancy meeting with a local authority a few weeks ago. A number of departments were attending but hosts were not allowed to order any lunch for us. Our host ended up making home made cookies for us all.

Which one would you pick? I'd be hard pushed to choose between the Mille-Feuille, coffee eclair or the green thingy in the middle. I'd probably opt for the green thingy because I think I can detect a trace of marzipan in it. Yum :D

However in reality I couldn't eat any of them because they'd make me fat :cry:

Definitely the thing with a top like a cream slice - You know, icing with brown swirls.

That's the thing I thought was the mille-feuille, it looks all sort of filo pastry and goo with a bit of bakewell style icing, mmmmm....

I LOVE cake, it's such a shame it doesn't love me :cry:

I don't know the technical terms, I just seperate them into great cakes, nice cakes and ok cakes. (obviously ther ei sno such thing as a bad cake).

But I agree, filo pastry, goo and bakewell stylee is a recipe for a great cake.
