I had worked a long 19 hours straight, went home to change my clothes and take a shower and get back for the opening of the Blue Ribbon Bakery on Main street. It was April 6th, 1990. I created a number of items that could be baked in front of the guests so they had the aroma of the freshly baked goods coming out of the oven. Similar to the Candy Palace, only making a few items in front of them and putting other products that were brought it. The location was put together quickly as a bakery/frozen yogurt stand. It took the place of the Sunkist Orange Cafe which was a lessee. Their contract of 35 years was up and they did not renew. Honestly, it probably was too high. The mornings breakfast items were served and the later afternoon hours, sandwiches and pieces of cake. I have put together the Carrot Muffins (same as the cake but without icing) and the Chocolate Chip Cheesecake (This item was sold throughout the park in New Orleans Kitchens, Tomorrowland Terrace, Plaza Inn and Plaza Pavilion) . Watch the video for some Retro Pictures too!
