TV3 / Prison Break: Cake

Prison Break returns 19th Nov.

Media people get all the free things. So a yummy cake turning up for them for morning tea wasn't that unusual. But when they started to cut slices, they hit something rather hard. To promote the return of the popular TV3 show Prison Break, we have hidden a file within the cake.Once the file was removed, they were left with a simple message "Prison Break returns 19th Nov TV3".

Not sure what taste it will leave in the mouth. Otherwise it's a good idea. As good as the ice-cream idea for some toothpaste.

Ok, I knew I wasn't losing my mind. I definitely blogged about this LAST december: http://www.motivators.com/blogs/2008/12/prison-break-file-cake.html. I guess it just took some time to make its way over to Ads of the World.
