Baby Grootcake Is Way Better than a Baby Fruitcake

Posted on 09/05/2017 by Conner Flynn

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is officially out in theaters and it is sweet! You know what else is sweet? This adorable Baby Groot cake. And you can make one for yourself if you want thanks to the video tutorial.

Zoe’s Fancy Cakes created this awesome cake and I love how it looks so real. Those eyes! He looks like he is about to shout “I am Groot!” If you have decent baking skills you can probably make one too, but it probably won’t look as nice as Zoe’s. After all, she’s a professional pastry chef.

This is the perfect cake for any Guardians of the Galaxy viewing party. It would definitely impress your friends and is sure to be a delicious treat.

Two-Faced Dalek Wedding Cake

Posted on 20/04/2017 by Conner Flynn

This Dalek cake is like a Doctor Who mullet, business in front, party in back. Or is it the opposite here? The cake features a Dalek on the front half, and on back it is a traditional wedding cake. It was baked and decorated by the folks at Wellingborough, United Kingdom based Amelia Rose Cake Studio.

It probably represents the bride and the groom, because the wife can be a real Dalek. Know what I mean? Nah. I kid. It represents the two stages of marriage: Happiness, then extermination. Nah. I kid. I kid. I love marriage.

Seriously, this is an awesome Doctor Who wedding cake that incorporates the best of both worlds, both geeky and traditional.

The Only Solution to These Rubik’s Cubes Cakes is to Get in My Stomach

Posted on 31/03/2017 by Conner Flynn

Check out these awesome cubic cakes created by French chef Cédric Grolet. This is exactly what a rich person’s Rubik’s Cube looks like when they want to eat one.

Grolet was rated the best pastry chef in 2016 by the Relais Desserts Association, so he clearly knows what he’s doing. These cakes are basically just a bunch of small, cube-shaped cakes put together, but that’s okay. Here, presentation is everything. Forget trying to complete the puzzle and match all of the colors. Just eat each little cube up and enjoy.

The real puzzle would be to eat each of these little cubes whole and then solve the puzzle in your stomach. Hey, it all turns brown in the end so… Solved!

This Space Cake Makes You a Devourer of Worlds

Posted on 22/02/2017 by Conner Flynn

Ground control to Betty Crocker, this space cake looks delicious. My God, it’s full of stars! Well, planets anyway. This colorful cake was made by an Imgur contributor going by the name “pedagiggle” for a kid’s party, and it’s a masterpiece of nerd baking.

Its baker wanted to convey the idea of outer space inside the cake as well as the decorated outside. Obviously he or she did an amazing job with that solar system on the interior. A solar system! In a cake! Apparently, the trick was to bake cake pop orbs first, then embedding them in a marble cake with food coloring.

The baker posted additional photos and some instructions if you want to try to bake a planetary cake yourself. There were also some rocket ship and Star Wars cookies at the party. Why do I never get invited to these things?

If you want to make a cake that looks like a motherboard, you may have struggled in the past. Maybe it came out looking more like a motherboard after a fire. Well, Los Angeles baker and author Rosanna Pansino of Nerdy Nummies is here to help.

She will help you to make the coolest looking motherboard cake possible. In the video below she demonstrates her technique. I like how she uses various candies for the boards components.

There’s not much better than eating a tasty cake, except when said cake is Mario-themed, and filled with edible gold coins. Forget smashing your head on it to get those coins. Smash your face against it and gobble it up.

You can find the full recipe and the question mark template on her blog if you want to try making one for yourself. You’ll have to provide the Mario sound effects yourself of course.

Pikachu Cake Pan: Dessert, I Chews You!

Posted on 28/12/2016 by Shane McGlaun

The other day we talked a bit about those Pikachu ice trays that let you chill your drinks with a cute Pokémon. If you want a snack to go along with those cold drinks, there is your chance to get a Pikachu cake pan.

The silicone pan holds four cups of batter and you could it to as a Jello mold as well. Due to its shape, the instructions suggest that you bake the body and head for longer than the tail and ears, so you fill those later than the body.

It sounds very complex, but the finished product is both cute and yummy, and no one wants burnt cake. You can also use the mold in the microwave and it is dishwasher safe. The Pikachu cake pan is available from ThinkGeek for $19.99(USD).

Watch These Drones Make a Cake

Posted on 03/10/2016 by Conner Flynn

Have you ever seen a drone make a cake? No, I don’t mean the indentured servants working at your local grocery store’s bakery. I’m talking real drones making a cake. It is an awesome sight.

With all of the ingredients ready to go, these drones zoom into action, lift the cake in place, put icing on it, shoot candy on it and create a masterpiece.

Lucas Zanotto is the man behind these flying pastry chefs in this commercial for Internet and mobile company Telia. Check out the behind the scenes video too.

I know, they don’t actually blend the ingredients and whisk eggs and whatnot, but this is still mighty impressive, especially when you realize that all of the drones were manually piloted.

Game of Thrones Cake Molds: Frosting is Coming

Posted on 06/09/2016 by Shane McGlaun

All of us Game of Thrones fans are anxiously sitting here waiting for the new season of the show to kick off. With new episodes not happening until Summer 2017, we have a long while to wait. Until then, all we can do is watch reruns and gorge on cake made in house sigil pans.

That is, assuming you like House Stark or House Targaryen and their sigils. Naturally, the Stark cake pan looks like a wolf’s head and the Targaryen pan looks like a three-headed dragon. I will say the Stark pan cooks up the more interesting cake shape, but I hear you can’t burn anything cooked in the Targaryen pan.

The pans are made from silicone and are available on the HBO Shop EU store for £15.99 (~$22 USD) each. I was unable to find them on the US store, but we can hope they turn up. I’d quite like a lemon cake in the Stark pan.
