Here are pictures and comments from the International Baking Industry Exposition in Orlando, Florida. The action began long before the IBIE show even started. Just getting there turned out to be the hardest part. Check out the photos of our 'mishap' on the way to Orlando. It goes to show how durable the machine really is!

 

Here's a short interview with Crystal Candy of Orlando's Orange TV

trade show due to his appendectomy.
