I make crazy cakes!

[Rah]

Hellooo. I just joined yesterday, haven't actually made any soap yet but I thought I could show you some of the cakes I make.
They are not very professional as I like to mess about and am far too tempted by food colouring, but they look quite cool anyway!

My friend and I developed a way of making stripy cakes!

This one was made for a friend's birthday last weekend. For those of you who don't recognise the image I painted on the top, it's the Joker from the recent Batman film

CUPCAAKES! (excuse poor camera quality. I normally have to nick my friend's Canon for the decent photos.)

And I know this isn't really cake, but I like it anyway.
Upon first glance you may think this is sushi... WRONG! It is strawberry laces wrapped in coconut ice and covered in dark green icing. Mmmm. :]

Now look at the mess I am in!

My 10 y/o was just looking over my shoulder & now insists she will be having a rainbow BDay cake for her birthday next month.

Those really are amazing!

 

[kwahlne]

Wow! How COOL! Great job!

 

[Chay]

Fantastic! Without a doubt your artistic abilities will shine in your new soap endeavors.

 

[Rah]

Thanks a lot, all of you!

And Tabitha, I'm sorry! But they are not too hard to do if you are not concerned with being too precise (I baked all the layers individually because I wanted them all to be perfectly level.) But if you just poured the different colours on top of each other in the sandwich tins (and levelled them out in between) it would have a similar effect as this, they would just mix together a little bit.

And thank you, Chay. I certainly hope so!

 

[Lindy]

Wow! Way cool....now I need to find a snack...... :?

 

[IanT]

Thanks Lindy and IanT!

And no, I don't think we have the food network over here. Or if we do, I don't watch it. What is charm city?

Gaaah, thanks topcat! Hope I don't disappoint!

Man, I really need to get soaping soon! :0 Must go on an ingredients hunt.
