Chapter 3

“Stop sobbing for a few seconds and tell me everything that happened. As your friend, I’m here to help you.”

Long story short, the amateur baker had agreed to make his brother and future sister-in-law’s wedding cake: a five-tiered, triple chocolate tower with chocolate buttercream icing. He had his wedding cake batter prepared for the floured tins. And just as he was about to fill the first tin, his left foot slipped on a square of butter that had somehow ended up on the kitchen floor. As Michael fell, chocolate batter went flying with tins, a plastic tub of sugar, and a bag of opened flour. Michael ended up wearing the ingredients, splayed on the floor like a beginning ice skater.
