Editor's note: Rio McCarthy is amazing!!! She remade the cake boss from the greatest game ever and it looks delicious. I want to pull a Booster and eat it in one giant bite! -- CTZ]
Ever since
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars came out many moons ago, it has been my absolute favorite game of all time, as well as the game I most frequently replay. I try to make it a habit to at least beat the game once a year and it always delights me every time.
One of my favorite things about the game are the boss battles and there was always one in particular, Bundt. I mean seriously, who doesn't love a boss that's made out of cake? Well I do that's for sure, so I made him ... out of cake.
Not only did I make Bundt (with Raspberry of course) I also made Chef Torte and his Apprentice! :D
Chef Torte! The cake's MOVING!
Poke. Poke. Poke.
:X Me and Bundt. I think we could be soulmates, what do ya know? :P
All in all, this was around a four plus day project. It took me two days to do all the work on the cake, plus another two days to finish up Chef Torte and the Apprentice. Bundt is completely edible and made from a lot of stuff I've never used before such as gum paste, and whatever other stuff you make cakes from that I found in the decorating aisle. I make note that before this project I didn't even know how to bake a cake, so I'd say this turned our pretty good since I never have used most of the materials before.
Chef Torte and the Apprentice are completely hand sculpted from Sculpey and I painted the both of them to match their in game colors.
It may have been such a small part in the game, but it will always rank as one of my absolute favorites and it's made me beyond giddy to recreate this scene in cake.
Enjoy! :D

Seriously that is amazing, good stuff!
Man, you're so talented when it comes to this kinda stuff.
Memories... I loved that game!
How'd it taste?!
Ha ha! People who don't know about Super Mario RPG must have taken one look at this "cake" and figured you for a lunatic.
You, my friend, are one of the coolest people ever.
Sculpey is edible. Right? RIGHT?
I would eat it, but like NEBONES, I'm afraid it would try to crawl back up my throat and kick my ass.
.... but wow... it's gonna be sooooo hard to make that first cut to eat that masterpiece! :)
But that aside, that is one kick-ass cake. I wanna say it was the first and only cake boss in RPG history, but I could be wrong. It's just...just amazing. XD
YOU FOOLS!!
I can has slice
Also, forget Geno. When is Mallow going to make the big comeback? The time he meets up with his parents and cries is so heartwarming.
That's the type of cake I want to eat with my face only. Utensils are for pussies!
It makes me want to eat it =P... and play Mario RPG again.
Great job, Rio :D
F'ing amazing! So much Super Mario RPG lately!
That's awesome!
However, that bundt cake is amazing! Very good job! How does it taste? Does it make you want to cry? ^_^
...no seriously.Nice work, your work is amazing, and your hoodie too.
You just reminded me that I need to play Mario RPG someday soon. I missed that one the first time around.
That is incredible. I'm stuck at this boss right now! How the hell do you beat it? At least you can actually eat this one.
Well done though, seriously, that must have been so much fun to make, hope it's just as fun to eat.
