As most of the regulars know, my wife (papersatan) makes me some seriously fantastic cakes every year for my birthday. One of the rules she sticks to is that the cake has to be 100% edible and it makes for some creative works. We were a little late due to finals and all but she finally got around to making a badass cake this year.
Behold my very own Pip-Boy 3000!

The screen is just hardened icing with a shit load of black food dye. That part was edible, not delicious. :P
Just in case you are not familiar with the cakes of old, here are a collection of the ones made for me thus far.
Invader Zim - My Rubber Piggy

Call of Cthulhu

Cthulhu Rising from the waters

Portal and a Rickroll all in one. Rickrolled the entire group with that cake. Even had someone at the computer to start the song up the moment she lifted up the fake cake. It was a fucking beautiful moment.
Settlers of Catan
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v619/ackblom12/Cakes/STA72234.jpg)
She made this one with cup cakes topped with sugar cookies that were glued on with icing. Decorated the cookies with various candies and deliciousness was had.
Share your wonderful cakes with the world. I would be pretty happy with some of last years getting reposted honestly, especially the JFK cake.
-
fucking awesome
-
Fine, I will share once more my cake depicting the assassination of our 35th president. (I think my links may have broken on the other page anyways)

As I recall, the Texas schoolbook depository had a strange taste from all of the food coloring it took to get it the color red we wanted.

this is like cake porn

the happiest sad cake

I don't remember seeing the Settlers of Catan one before! (I'm sure you've posted it, I just don't remember) It is I think my favourite
-
When you come to Fargo we can play Catan, I have it. Hopefully soon-ish I will get the Seafarers expansion as well!
-
I have never played Settlers of Catan. Is this wrong Y/N?
-
A thousand times Y.
One of the best board games ever made in my opinion. Also reduces every adult, regardless of age, into 12 year old giggles when people say "I have wood for sheep."
-
I only played it a little at Eed's because I was falling asleep on the floor but it was far more fun than I expected it to be!
-
I dunno, I really like it.
-
Kat, you are awesome, as always.
-
sorry Linds (http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/4658/peniscakereworked.jpg)

Dude, put that under a NSFW link.

Awesome cakes, baked by my grandmother back in the day.

That piano cake is magnificent.
So many of the cakes on this page I would feel guilty for eating.
-
Seriously those Settlers of Catan cupcakes are so incredibly ace.

The theme song won't get out of my brain!

It was my flatmate's birthday party the other day...

Hey, it's better than the theme from Lamb Chops Play Along.
-
Nooooooooooooooo!! (http://www.nooooooooooooooo.com/) It's in my head nowwww.
-
Hey, at least if that is stuck in your head, the theme from Muskethounds can't be.
-
I've been trying to think of the theme song for Bananas in Pyjamas for days and I just can't remember it.
-
Jesus Christ, Jimmy, what sort of childhood did you have (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJkPWMaNaIM)
-
This (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxOQTaLTFrU) sort (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEx9r5enZsk) of (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8Ca_edg6RE) childhood (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rD0cRsIsVrE).

Oh god, I followed that Bananas in Pajamas link to this old gem (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wow3g5rGw5Y&feature=related).

Granted I watched and loved all these, too, but I still watched Bananas in Pajamas too. Bananas in pajamas are coming down the stairs.
-
I've never heard of Bananas in Pyjamas.
Also I took off an 'o' in www.nooooooooooooooo.com and got redirected three times and ended up with a site advertising sweaty balls and McCarthy for Congress
-
Man, that X-men show was so awesome. Now I am feeling all nostaltic
-
i like this theme song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t94LtCvP9ck) better.
-
My baking is just not good enough, I need to be a ton more nerdy in my icing choices. I may do something this afternoon. Suggestions for cup cake designs?
-
Penis penis penis penis penis
...cupcakes
-
Oh, forgot one!
I made this one, and it is less badass for looks than for content. It is a chocolate tart with chocolate ganache icing and chocolate crust; the lettering was made of chocolate heated and brushed onto baking paper. It is basically a Type 2 Diabetes cake.
(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-sjc1/hs534.snc3/30323_10150169830025237_651335236_12224022_6598954_n.jpg)

That looks really good.

...cupcakes
I made my boyfriend cock shaped cookies for our anti-christmas christmas. He was very pleased & drew icing school dicks all over them.
-
Cookie cocks and cupcake breasts. These would be good snacks for a Pure Romance, etc. type party.
-
I don't know what sort of party that is...
-
Sex toy party.

I wonder if those minerals are edible and how they were made. I hope they're big blue sugar crystals.

Kat has made yet another birthday cake, this time for our friend Maria.

If someone now asks, "Have you ever drank Bailey's from a shoe?" we can answer honestly. Yes good sir, yes we have.
-
Mmm...creamy beige.
-
My cake is not nearly as impressive as any of these. But my derby wife and dearest work mate moved to Sydney a few weeks ago so I made her this cake for her work good bye morning tea. It was devils food cake and delicious!
(http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y247/ebony_willow/stuff001.jpg)
Her derby name is Billy Skater, which anyone who is not Australian will not get and even Australians who don't know who Billy Slater is won't get. But she is obsessed with Billy Slater and the Melbourne Storm NRL team so it is a most excellent derby name for her and I miss her so much :( :( :(
-
Any cake with M&Ms is badass enough me!

Behold! Creep-cake!
YOU MUST BAKE MORE OVERLORDS

Holy fuck, old greg cake. holy fuck.
Stephen, I HAVE to share this with a specific group of friends. HAVE TO holy fuck what's it made of?
-
Cake is just a dense yellow cake (Kat had to make it dense to support Gregg and his stuff) and pineapple icing. She even squeezed the pineapple juice herself!
Greg, the Funk, the watercolors and the Bailey's are homemade marshmallow fondant. She used a sewing needle and food coloring to paint the watercolors. She used Silicone molds and chocolate melting caps to make the shoes,(she used an actual baby shoe for that) table, and table legs and Gregg's chair. Shot glasses were used for the molding of the last two.
-
Yellow cake (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_cake)?!
-
It's actually a white cake! Just vanilla. Great recipe, too. Don't remember where I got it, but I've tweaked it to be just perfect for cupcakes.
-
I'm bringing this back because I just made the best cake. All these pictures are still showing so this way we don't all have to link our previous awesomeness again.
I can't show you this cake yet because it is for Allison, and she has not seen it yet. Get ready though, it is so cute, and so her!
See you bitches here tomorrow at 5pm EST.
-
Does it have a mustache? I'll be pretty bummed out if it doesn't have a mustache.
-
Kat, she posted a pic on Twitter and seriously, it's super awesome and made me laugh.
-

Yesssss
Oh God, I can't stop giggling. So great, Kat.
-
As soon as Gemm posted that, I KNEW it would have moustache. That surpassed my imaginings though!
-
I made some badass cakes today! I hope I am allowed to post them here.

Those are great! They remind me of the Lost Boys' feast in Hook.

Not that badass, but here's a bit of cake what I baked.

Just so I can say Hippo Valentines Day for my beloved.
Carrot cake topped with the usual cream cheese icing. Cautionary note, cream cheese doesn't freeze to a firm fondant as much as I had hoped. The design was supposed to be a bit more elaborate but I was ankled by some rather skewed hippos.
-
Did you make the hippos with a cookie cutter? I used to have a hippo cookie cutter (actually, I wonder if I brought t back with me last time I went and visited my family) and they made the cutest gingerbread cookies!
I miss that cookie cutter.
-
I did indeed. Not as successful as I wanted though.

The 5150 Kramer cake. Made by the fair hands of my girlfriend's mother, but damn that was some tasty guitar.
-
Holy crap, dude. I hope you intend to marry into that family.
-
Holy crap, dude. I hope you intend to marry that cake.
-
I intended to take on a more "eastern" view of things and have her and the cake as my tasty, delicious wives.
But yeah that was a pretty amazing cake, her mum is very talented.
-
Oh hey, I made a RAINBOW CAKE.

-
pretty colours
-
Is that topped with crazy chocolate eggs?
-
how? how do you keep the colours separate like that?
-
Yes, it is topped with chocolate easter eggs, mini marshmallows and pink sprinkles.
I uh, basically just divided up a large vanilla cake batter, made the different colours and piled them on top of each other in the cake tin. Don't mix, make patterns if you feel like it, put less of one and then more of another, whatever you want, just don't get in there with a spoon and mix stuff. It's interesting to see what happens to the layers when it cooks though, some shift, some don't.
This is what it looked like before it went in the oven:

-
Those cakes are so much fun to (m/b)ake!
-
Last time I made rainbow cupcakes, I showed pictures to my mother and grandmother and they were completely revolted and asked if we actually ate them because they'd obviously make us sick. A couple of weeks later, when I said my boyfriend was sick, they asked if he'd eaten one of the cakes.
-
:psyduck:
-
Our wedding cake is nowhere near as cool as all these, but we loved it anyway. The girl zombie is holding out a heart! My mom was going to make our cakes but she got really sick that week so I had to take over, so they got done in the midst of every other crazy thing that was happening. I usually make prettier cakes.
(http://www.bexgd.com/images/stories/wedding/wedding4/IMG_1349.jpg)
And the groom's cake turned out godawful but it still cracks us up. Ryan wanted these little zombie guys and fleeing villagers so I whipped up the cake and let him put them on it. It looks like something that belongs on one of those bad-cake websites, but it was tasty at least!

Lots of vibrant colours squick adults. If I know adults are going to eat I go for vanilla/white, cocoa/choc brown and pink.
-
Yeah one time my dad put hot pink food colouring into our rice for dinner and mum refused to eat it, it was pretty funny.
-
I wonder how lemon juice/zest, yellow coloured segments would go down in a marble cake.
-
Have either of you tried the strawberry essence for cakes or whatever? I'm tempted but sceptical.
-
I made cupcakes a while ago and thought I'd share. Behold! Nerdy cupcakes and the power of sugar!
