The Aggie Cake
"This cake was made to honor the football team. It weighed 500 lbs. I think all the letters were made of pieces of candy. They cut the cake into a lot of small pieces and gave it to the 1500 students here. I ate part of it and it was very good. I think it weighed 250 pounds instead of 500, I'm not sure. It had a very beautiful blend of color." 1922 |
