I was flipping through the channels one day and ran across the “Cake Boss” show, where they do impressive things with flour and sugar. But I’ve never seen a fancy cake that was dedicated to wildland firefighters. Some of the detail is amazing. Check out the stitching in the belt loops.

It was cooked made constructed invented by Sarah C. Gracey, an Urban Forestry Coordinator for the Kentucky Division of Forestry. Ms. Gracey is also qualified as a Type 2 Public Information Officer.

I have discovered a new hazard in writing about wildland fire… getting very hungry while covering a story about a fire cake.
