Tale of the traveling cake

I just had a first. I mailed my first cake today. My husband, who is a former Marine, wanted me to send him a special cake all the way over to the Middle East where he is deployed. The Marine Corps 233rd birthday is coming up on November 10th and my husband is going to celebrate it with a few of the former Marines that are on his base. I can't let them celebrate without a special cake!

Sooooo, here is the cake that I hope will make it over to the Middle East in one piece:


Let's hope it makes it! Happy 233rd birthday United States Marine Corps!
