Cake Pops
Monday, March 8th, 2010While I remain a big fan of the pie pops featured here last summer, I think it’s about time we welcome cake into the “on a stick” family. Especially when you can make them look like little chickadees. I don’t know about you, but I just love biting cute things in the face… I lie. [...]
Sea Turtle Cake
Sunday, February 7th, 2010Ohhhhhh my goodness. My taste buds have just attacked my nervous system and I’m getting fiendish for some sweets! When I first caught a glimpse of this little guy I thought it was a real sea turtle. Then I thought it was some kind of ice cream turtle. Then I realized it was just a [...]
H.R. Giger Cake
Thursday, February 4th, 2010There are a lot of things about marriage and weddings that I’m still trying to wrap my head around, but if two people who want a freakin’ H.R. Giger wedding cake want to get married then hey, you have my fucking blessing. And by the way, have some kids while you’re at it.
The H.R. Giger [...]
Digital Cake!
Thursday, January 21st, 2010Baking cakes is fun, but let’s face it. With all the stuff you need to get done by Thursday s you can take Friday off for a long weekend, there’s little time to spare in the kitchen. But Debbie in accounting’s birthday is tomorrow and she’s telling everyone she’s 35. Yeah, well you know the [...]
The Cherpumple
Tuesday, January 12th, 2010Wait, wouldn’t this be more of a Cherappkin? Not that it really matters, it’s going to stop all of my functioning organs no matter what order you name its ingredients. You know, I’m not really sure why I’m so sensitive to the idea of a super stacked pie. Wasn’t it just thanksgiving that I ate [...]
Crayon Cake!
Thursday, November 5th, 2009Duff Goldman of Ace of Cakes, I’ve never really been that compelled to eat any one of your cakes before. Don’t get me wrong, your work is fantastic, I’m just… I’m skeptical. But hey, you can’t always be everything to everyone and when a cake looks that good, I’ll understand if its not the most [...]
Tauntaun Wedding Cake
Sunday, October 25th, 2009Star Wars artist Chris Trevas was not only lucky enough to find a lady who’d let Stormtroopers into their wedding, she ok’d a dead Tauntaun cake too.
Julie and I had Courtney Clark from Cake Nouveau of Food Network Challenge (and TLC Ultimate Cake-Off) fame do our wedding cakes including a special cake request from me [...]
There’s Nothing Pumpkin About This Pumpkin Cake… I DON’T CARE!
Friday, October 23rd, 2009ONLY AT DEAN & DELUCA. Our pumpkin cakes are almost too pretty to cut, but you’ll be glad you did. Under the beautiful white chocolate “shell” you’ll discover six layers of moist vanilla spice cake sandwiching praline buttercream and rich chocolate fudge. A delicious and befitting dessert for any harvest celebration.
Uhhhh! It’s beckoning me to [...]
Steampunk Wedding Cake?
Sunday, October 11th, 2009Dare I say they have gone too far? This cake, as carefully crafted as it may be, is not appetizing. Granted, very few themed wedding cakes are. I just don’t like the taste of copper that much and, well, if I really wanted to eat a bunch of wood and hardware, I’d just go gnaw [...]
Spaghetti Cake
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009Yup, that’s a cake.
Topped with massive amounts of stringy frosting and chocolate meatballs, I can’t help but feel a little sad. I don’t know why a novelty cake could ever make me sad, but I think it’s because I just really want a giant plate of spaghetti.
Want to make your own spaghetti cake? Check out [...]
You Can Have Your AT-AT And Eat It Too
Thursday, May 14th, 2009Imagine this. You’re thirsty. You want a slurpee. You run out to your car and boom! There’s a giant AT-AT walking down your street. For most, your first instinct would be to run. For others it would be to jump on a leg, shimmy your way up and hijack the cockpit. Then there’s the few [...]
Checkerboard Cake!
Thursday, April 9th, 2009There’s something very Alice In Wonderland-y about this checkerboard cake, so therefore it is really good. To be honest, I was kind of confused when I first saw it, but hey, give me a break. I had literally just woken up. Anywho, you could probably do with one or two layers if you’re in a [...]
Today At Gamervision – Rainbow Cupcakes For Joe’s Birthday!
Friday, March 27th, 2009Tomorrow is Joe’s birthday, which in Gamervision time means today. Joe is a pretty popular commodity in the office, he’s Gamervision’s sweetheart and we all have a schoolgirl crush on him (even if we try to deny it). And since Sarah and I are both victims of Joe admiration, we rushed to the opportunity to [...]
Today At Gamervision
Friday, January 30th, 2009Sarah was kind enough to save me some birthday cake from Luke’s big day yesterday, and man, I’d hate to be the person who attempted to intercept a slice after that note was posted. I have noticed some people are missing today. Maybe they got sticky fingers…
In case you missed it, here’s what the cake [...]
Today At Gamervision
Thursday, January 29th, 2009Today is our very own Gamervisioneer Luke’s birthday. In celebration of him being alive, Sarah made this delicious-looking Pac Man cake. It has yet to be eaten, but when I took it out to get a snapshot, I was hypnotized with its intense chocolate aroma. Too bad I’ll be learning about the physics of light [...]
Nikon D700 Cake
Sunday, December 7th, 2008After working on a photo project all day in these frosty conditions, there’s nothing I’d love more than to eat my camera. What’s holding me back? Well, I’ve got a bit of a hunch that my Panasonic Lumix won’t taste a thing like red velvet cake, but that’s why artsy ladies hire/marry really nice men [...]
The Weighted Compumpkin Cube Cake
Wednesday, October 29th, 2008Check out this twist on the Weighted Companion Cube baked up by cake masters Joe and Maria over at The Cake Blog. Considering the season, I never would have thought of celebrating with some Portal, but just by replacing the little hearts with pumpkins, I guess anything is possible. Minus the always skeptical frosting, the [...]
Life Size Yoda Cake = Dad Of The Year
Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008You’d be a proud dad too if your son requested a Star Wars themed birthday party. And just like how we always thought that our dads could do just about anything, Geoff proved this is true by constructing a life sized Yoda cake for his son’s 4th birthday. Now where does one acquire such skills? [...]
Spider Cake
Tuesday, October 14th, 2008Here’s a fun dessert if you plan on entertaining for Halloween. Conjured up by the not martha blog, these tasty creepy crawlies rely on some chocolate Pocky sticks to move about which is significantly less threatening than their cousins. And for all of you who are scared of spiders, you know what they say. Revenge [...]
Pac Man Cake
Thursday, September 18th, 2008Dagmar of Stockholm, Sweden, baked this gorgeous Pac Man cake, and I swear, I am salivating. Maybe I’m a little partial to it due to both my Scandinavian and geeky heritage, but let me tell you, the Swedes can make a tasty cake. Filled with raspberry cream and Dumle (chewy toffee covered in chocolate) fluff, [...]
