1-Up Mushroom Cake









Posted in my general blog in March '08:
In my latest culinary adventure I attempted to craft a One-Up Mushroom cake for Tom's birthday. Christor was witness to the exercise in frustration: Katey pacing the kitchen with green butter cream icing in her hair and chocolate on her face ranting about how 'this f*&@ing cake is going in the bin if one more thing goes wrong'. In hindsight the choice of butter cream rather than fondant icing was a poor one - it's stupidly hard to work with. But in the end it got made, appreciated by the boy and eaten by a room full of D&D gamers. Which is all anyone could want of a nerd cake. Rad!
