  1. I'm so flattered! Also in awe at your culinary courage. I have been fascinated in particular by the Meat Cake for a while, but not brave enough to try it - I had a vision that it would look like a pineapple upside-down cake but meaty, and I see that is the case. Thank you so much, and you well deserve another Tropical Cocktail!
