Game Cake, Day Of The Tentacle!
Grimspoon \| 10:09 PM on 04.14.2010	21 comments

Just got home from a baking class, part of a Culinary Skills program at the local college. We had an end of year assignment to make a special occasion cake. Here's what I put together:

This was actually my first time using / working with fondant. Pretty happy with the results, though I know I could do way better if I were to try it again.

Got a 20/20 on it too!

Did you get to eat it afterwards?? It looks yummy!

Grimspoon

I know the cake underneath is delicious but it almost seems like a shame to cut into this thing!

At very least I have to keep Purple and Green tentacle. For posterity. :D

Thanks for the kind words!

also what does fondant even taste like? every time i see these fancy cakes made of it, they dont look like they would taste very good.

confusionbomb

@Fetusmik - It tastes like sugar. I've made some homemade out of marshmallows before.

God that cake is epic. That's some skills.

Awesome Cake is Awesome...

Let's not get carried away and turn into Cakatku though guys.

Grimspoon

Oh crap, was it Kotaku who shows the cake artists all the love? Damnit, brb!

J/K! I don't think my work deserves the same spotlight that some of the awesome game cakes out there get!

@Grimspoon

Yes it does deserve the same spotlight! That thing is freakin' sweet and I think it should grace more peoples' eyes.
