Well it turns out the time machine wasn't what I thought it was. It was a dud, an April's fools buried by 'The Chief' himself, maybe it was fate that I found it on that day! However do not give up! I've been bombarded with user submitted images of cakes they claim to have made. Unfortunately most of them have been falsely fabricated, not made of their own sweat and blood but instead by the mouse click of their hand. There was one though who suggested I not take a cake with me on my journey but a cannon! I present to you the '***** the Treaty' cannon!

Back to Salem I go then. Please do continue to send me images of your cake and as a show of appreciation I give you permission to eat it yourself! No journey, no need for cake =(
