In one of our favorite magazines, Equally Wed, they recently interviewed Duff from Ace of Cakes!
They asked about the first same-sex wedding cake:
EW: Do you remember your first assignment for a same-sex couple?
DG:The first one we did was a rat on a manhole cover. We don’t care about sexual orientation—it’s not like ‘Oh, yay, we’re making a cake for gay people!’ or ‘Oh. We’re making a cake for gay people.’ We’re just making a cake for people who love each other.
Their cakes are beautiful! We enjoy watching the show and you should too! To see full interview, CLICK HERE
Imagine buying a manmade land structure that is it’s own principality. Well, noble titles are for sale on this land and you too can be either a Lord, Lady, Baron, or Baroness. We wonder if we could be Barons equally?
According to the site,
The Birth of Sealand
“This paved the way for occupation. On 2 September 1967, former English major Paddy Roy Bates formally occupied the island and settled there with his family. After intensive discussions with skillful English lawyers, Roy Bates proclaimed the island his own state. Claiming jus gentium, he bestowed upon himself the title of Prince and the title of Princess to his wife and subsequently made the state the Principality of Sealand. Roy Bates, henceforth Roy of Sealand, exerted state authority on the island and thus was an absolute sovereign. The royal family and other persons that have declared loyalty to Sealand have occupied Sealand ever since.”

Kraft went to the mat to support the gay games when they were in Chicago; even when protest abound… Kraft stood by us, and the protest quickly fizzled. Now they continue to partner with equality groups and the Gay games to keep the equality rolling.
Tell us your favorite Kraft product? We like mac n cheese with more cheese added to the recipe…followed by a workout.
