20,000 Leagues Under the Sea Cake

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea Cake

I continue to be amazed at the creativity and detail in cake decorating. Geek Craft reader Laurel Taylor made this amazing (yes, it’s so amazing I keep saying amazing) 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea cake for her son.

“My son’s favorite movie is 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, so when he asked for a submarine cake for his 5th birthday, he didn’t want just any plain submarine… he has no idea how spoiled he is that mommy can decorate cakes!”

Spoiled and lucky!

Child’s Play Chucky Cake

chucky-cake
Today has been a pretty horrifying day. To start, I had to be at work at four am (horrors and terrors you could only dream of), then, after work (and a nap) a friend and I went “urban exploring” in an incredibly creepy mostly abandoned ghost town very near to “Devil’s Crater”, so when this little gem showed up in my inbox this afternoon, I knew what I had to do.

R0ckwithme posted this delectable and terrifying Child’s Play Chucky Cake she made for her beau’s twelve year old son on craftster. Immediately, visions of slumber parties of yester-year, hiding under sleeping bags and convincing myself that every doll, teddy bear, or vaguely humanoid toy I owned was definitely Chucky, and was definitely going to kill me.

I can honestly say that until today, no cake so well-decorated has ever intimidated me, but this one…well…takes the cake.

Atari 2600 Console Cake

Technabob posted this absolutely amazing Atari 2600 Console Cake by Cakes by the “Pound”, a bakery in Southern California that specializes in “custom designed edible works of art.” When I saw this picture, I thought that this was the most amazing cake I had ever seen. And then I clicked through to Cakes by the “Pound”s portfolio! Even if you aren’t into cakes, it’s definitely worth the time to take a look at some of their incredible creations. And yes, the entire cake is edible.
