    Do the pieces move, and when you capture one, do you get to cut and eat it

    What to eat first? Pawns Or Royalty?

    I made a chess board cake years ago with chocolate pieces for my friend’s dad.

    I wrote “happy birthday ” in Danish on it. He grew up in Denmark. Instead of placing the pieces in the beginning set up.
    I placed them around the script.

    The family had a wonderful time all that weekend discussing how the design could be achieved legally!

    This is beautifully done, BTW! Thanks for unlocking that memory!

    Lower left corner (A1 – where white rook resides) must be black.

    Great work!
    Me personally prefer varies in the inner structure of cakes above out appearance. And it’s sad to destroy such a beauty.
