Do or do not. There is no try.

Or so my Yoda-kid tells me. The force is strong with that one.

This cake actually started out as a joke and turned into reality.

Actual text message conversation about this cake:

B: He requests a “fierce carnivore” cake. Like T. rex velociraptor tiger rhino cake
Me: LOL. Tell him I’ll make him Barney the dinosaur
B: I told him and he said “that’s messed up”
Me: I needed that laugh today
B: He said fierce animals eating Barney would be perfect if there’s a speech bubble saying help me. I didn’t even help him with that gem.
Me: Love it.

So there you go – fierce dino eating Barney with a ‘help me’ sign. Because kids have an awesome sense of humor.

Everything is hand-cut and hand-modeled out of sugarpaste. Even the fierce dinosaur.

I made this cake over the summer for my son who REALLY, REALLY, REALLY wanted a Minecraft Cow cake for his family birthday party. It was one of those cakes that I wasn’t sure was going to get done in time. I had to make it in a HUGE rush (like in three hours) because it coincided with a day I had another cake order to deliver.

And that weekend was a hot mess. We had decided to have the party at Grandma & Grandpa’s house so I figured I’d just bake the layers for the cake there. I pack my sheet pan and supplies and off we go. Only for my well-laid plans to come to a screeching halt because for some odd reason they don’t have a ‘normal’ sized oven. Yep, that’s right – my pans were NEVER going to fit in that oven. Cue panic! I had to use 10” square pans and bake several rounds of cakes to get the layers needed. This of course set me back by HOURS (did I mention I was already in a HUGE rush?) and company was coming. Fortunately the frame was already built and covered.

FASTEST. CAKE-SLAPPING-TOGETHER. EVER. After I took the picture I noticed I missed adhering a square of fondant dangling on the front of the cow. But I was done in time for the party. And my kid loved it and told me I was the best Mommy ever. So I’ll try to ignore that half-adhered piece of fondant.

Today I’m playing ‘cake photo catch-up’.

I honestly knew NOTHING about the game ‘Halo’ until I was asked to make this cake. I had to do a Wikipedia crash-course on the video game and some major Googling for ideas. Mom had the final say in the design and details and I’m preeeeeeeeeeeetty sure the birthday boy liked it. The birthday boy also provided the toys to add to the cake (he’s a big fan of seeing his toys standing on cakes).

The helmet on this Halo cake is made from carved RKT, covered in fondant, and the details were hand-cut and painted. The cake is two tiers of vanilla and buttercream. Detail was done by hand-painting the cake and using royal icing. All trees and shrubbery were hand-sculpted from sugarpaste.
