GLAAD reports that Betty Crocker held a cake tasting at the Betty Crocker Kitchen at the General Mills headquarters in Golden Valley, Minnesota, for the first three couples who will be married on August 1. Margaret Miles and Cathy ten Broeke will be the first couple to walk down the aisle in Minneapolis followed by Al Giraud and Jeff Isaacson. Reid Bordson and Paul Nolle will be married in St. Paul. All three couples were recently invited to the taste kitchen to sample the wedding cakes that are being made for their special day. Terri Leckas who owns Queen of Cakes in Edina, Minnesota, designed and baked the cakes, which were donated as part of The Families Project,which is an initiative from Betty Crocker that showcases different families and celebrates the evolution of today's "modern family." This isn't the first time General Mills has supported gay rights.
