SUGARCRAFT isn’t the first word that comes to mind at the opening of a road bypass. But, in 2004, members of the Cork Sugarcraft Association were at the launch of the new Ballincollig dual carriageway with a 16 metre example of their amazing skills. Three teams worked on an extraordinary cake representing the €170million 11km road. Instead of a ribbon cut, it was the cake that was cut, showing a map of the area with green fields and roads, diggers, workers, and supervisors.
