Connie Ansley didn't want to wave a Confederate flag, she wanted to eat one - And that just takes the cake. Ansley, a member of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, wanted to buy a cake decorated with a Confederate flag for the opening of Confederate Memorial Park museum. She drove all over looking for one and found out that Rebel pastries aren't that easy to come by. Costco and Wal-Mart refused to decorate a cake with the Confederate battle flag. So Ansley went to a Publix Grocery, where an employee agreed to make the cake. When Ansley returned to pick it up, she was told by a manager that the bakery never again would make such a cake.
