There are businesses that ship Smith Island cakes, fyi. You could also mail order Wockenfuss candy.

Ah thank you. I looked at the smith island bakery but it was $90 to ship out here so I passed on that. I’ll look into some others

Awesome. I only know one person who has made a Smith Island cake, they're notoriously tricky.

Copycat Berger cookies are probably easier.

Smith Island cakes are not tricky whatsoever. Get yellow boxed cake mix and 7 or more cake pans (bakers choice) . Pour thin layers in each cake pan and put icing in between the layers, top with rest of icing.

Source: I have been in the kitchen where the Smith Island cakes are made. It's actually just an older lady that lives on a legit island with less than 30 people.

That's a LOT of counter space, friend.

But I do love the image of one older lady, probably named Carol, cranking out cakes on a little island. I'd watch that show. She could solve mysteries!
