Every year for my birthday my friend and I make a strange shape cake. Hyper realism is never the goal, though it has happened unintentionally the last few years. Here is 40!

Pistachio cake with purple frosting (because we thought it would be pretty but purple turned out to be a PITA), modeling chocolate and wafer paper for the leaves. We ran out of chocolate 90% through and had to improvise with fondant.

    This cake is on its own level of wow! Still questioning if this is real or not.

    This is amazing. How did you make the texture realistic?

    I’m over here with Lizzo, saying, “B*tch, is this CAKE??”
