Yay! We made it to the aquarium cake! My proudest cake moment. I think....

Thanks
![]() ![]() OK, I think I'm done. Hector had a "normal" cake this year, and Thor had an internally multicolored cake with chocolate buttercream and a few race cars plopped on top. They are all really too "mature" for themed cakes any more. Which is OK, because they're all so busy I no longer have the time.....

Max has been looking at the cakes saying, "that's yummy and yummy and yummy", except for the Shark cake. That one's yucky apparently. I guess that means it's definitely not a dolphin!

wow. I feel like such a slacker.
those are some awesome cakes, monster. My kids were lucky to get a Betty Crocker with some pre=made frosting slapped on.

LOL. That was my first thought too. Its a good thing I wasn't a Mom, I would have failed.
Monster, some of the icing looks 'moldable', like the stuff I've seen on the cake wars shows. How did you make it and how does it taste?

In my world, cakes come from bakeries.
As a kid they also came from the kitchen, but as a grownup, they come from shops. I feel no shame in my utter lack of cake making prowess. That said: they're some fine looking cakes.

Those are all amazing!
Did you also make the plate for the Batman cake? That's a cool looking plate. |

Wow - those look great, and they're each unique which is a prize in itself.
I loved the shark one - I'll have it if Max doesn't want it Ali. Of course my fave is the aquarium cake, but yes I had seen it before. Which isn't to say I'm not impressed all over again. I might feel a steal coming on - it's such a talking point of a dessert...

My bug filled halloween jelly wasn't so successful because it had to stand around too long, but I'm going to try again this year. I really want to make a swimming one, but i can't find little swimmers to put in it.
