Cake your marks… (voting over 7.7.08 5.30pm)
It was invented by the Egyptians as flat, round, sweetened bread. Its name in Britain derives charmingly from the Norse “kaka”. Today, it’s the soft, melting centre of a swaggering power struggle on Regent Street.
We’re having a cake-off at Hive to celebrate six months since our inception; our demi-birthday if you like. This competition was conceived in an entirely non-calculating move by Timothy D Scorer. We hope you all agree that Tim’s cake (looks like a snowman) isn’t all that much to write home about, seeing as he has actually earned money as a professional chef.
Please vote for the cake you most admire in terms of concept and appearance. The rules are simple: cakes have to have something to do with us – our humble beginnings like the proto-cake of the pharaohs’ intrepid bakers…. our steady and determined rising from 3 to 8 staff despite working in essentially a moderate oven (we have a bit of an air conditioning problem some days)….our proud selection of clients as diverse as a handful of hundreds and thousands.
We have a panel of tasters judging taste, etc, but every rising talent knows it’s the public vote that counts, so click for your fave between now and Monday evening, when we’ll announce the winner. Who doesn’t actually win anything but gets to batter the rest of us with eternal smugness. Thanks!!

I licked all the cakes but they all taste a little funny. However, I love snowmen. When do we taste the jam?

having talked to the typographic artist he agrees the leading needs some work. What spacing would you suggest?
