The Inkwell

#food #cake #surprise

A cake was in the centre of the table

with sandwiches, jellies and jams

served up with savoury items

like chicken wings, pork ribs and hams

the flavour of the cake was a secret

hidden under icing blue

kept under close guarded secret

only Mum and the baker knew

So imagine the smiles and the giggles

when the icing began to break

and the piece so neat revealed the treat

of a chocolate orange bake
