“Just as the gowns are
going to pastels from
white, so are the icings.
Many people ask for
pastels now. Real flowers
are replacing iced flowers,
and the little statues of the
bride and groom are out.
Doves are taking over for
the very top,’ he says.
Fric approves of these
trends.
The Groff cake was
brought up from West Vir-
ginia in Eric's van, with all
the windows covered with
aluminum foil and the air
conditioning on full blast.
Besides the S-tier cake, he
brought a portable fountain
and two 3-foot-high statues
of a young man and woman
dressed in the ancient
Greek style of flowing
robes.
The statues were carved
in wax by another chef at

DID YOU HEAR?
Carol Heilman and Fred
Koser, both of Mount Joy,
won the annual Conestoga
River canoe race last Sat-
urday.
The race traverses the
navigable waters of the
Conestoga —a trip of ap-
proximately 1S miles, and 3
or 4 hours.
After a wedding trip to
Myrtle Beach, SC, the
couple will live in Eliza-

the Greenbrier, and were
very realistic. Eric told us
that some of the Greenbrier
chefs specialize in carving
blocks of ice, a very diffi-
cult medium because it is
so brittle —and a very
transitory one.
Mr. Crane told us that
the hotel sends him around
the U.S. with his cakes for
publicity purposes, in part.
“*A typical cake I do costs
about $1000,’ he said,
“and the hotel doesn’t get
any profit; they get some
loss. But it helps the
reputation of the Green-
brier, because you just
can’t get a cake like this
from a commercial baker.”’
Note: The Susquehanna
Times wishes to thank the
Groffs for suggesting this
article and arranging our
interview with Eric Crane.

INSUL
SUSQUEHANNA TIMES - Page 7
HOw Does Your
Attic
Years ago, if you had 2 or 3
inches of insulation in your attic,
you probably had enough.
But times have changed. The
days of cheap energy are over and
now even 6 inches of attic insul-
ation isn’t considered adequate.
Today we recommend about 8
to 10 inches of insulation in the
attic (R-30) and at least 3}% inches
in the walls (R-13).
Why this increase? Because
energy is much too valuable and
costly to waste. And, one of the
An Energy Saving Message from
best ways for you to save energy
. and money, is to reduce the
heating and cooling waste in your
home through better insulation.
Best of all, insulation pays for
itself in energy savings, season
after season, year after year. As
energy costs continue torise, your
savings become even more Sig-
nificant.
So if your attic doesn’t measure
up to the new recommended .
standard, now is the time to add
more. It's the easiest, most eco-
nomical place to start.
