My friend Emily Vail (of Vail Personal Chef and Custom Cake Service) was at a minor league baseball game, where there happened to be a Spam Carving Contest. She took home the trophy with the above oeuvre. I don't think she told them she was a pro, but then again, I don't think they teach Spam carving in pastry chef school. Emily makes amazing cakes too, but after this, I have a feeling someone is going to order a wedding cake made of Spam. (Anyone? Anyone?) Anyway, I'd like to melt cheese all over that piece of art. /dan
