The Feed: The Cake Bake Shop, SausageFest, And More

» Are you up for the challenge of recreating some of the beautiful cakes from Broad Ripple’s sparkly Cake Bake Shop (6515 Carrollton Ave., 317-257-2253)? You’re in luck. Owner Gwendolyn Rogers announced on Instagram that she’s writing her first cookbook. Look for it in bookstores in time for the 2018 holiday season.


» The 13th Annual St. Thomas Aquinas SausageFest is this weekend, August 18 and 19 (4625 N. Kenwood Ave., 317-253-1461). The food and drink headliners are L.E. Kincaid & Sons meat market and Sun King Brewing, with additional vendors on site. There will also be two different music stages (one on a chaperoned teen back lot), plus lots of activities to keep the kids entertained.

These should be hot sellers at this week’s Sausagefest. Little wieners gotta wear something, right?
