SuperGirl 0 #1 February 21, 2008 I wanna make someone a bday cake in some complicated shape... like an airplane, or maybe a skydiver? probably the airplane will be easier... anyhow, I have no idea how to make it so it's stiff enough and doesn't end up a complete disaster. any suggestions?

SuperGirl 0 #3 February 22, 2008 that's awesome, but I'd really like to avoid spending more than a jump ticket on a pan that I'll only use once. I'm more interested in suggestions for what kind of ingredients will make it easier to cut it into a nice shape without having the whole thing collapse into crumbs. I don't mind spending a few hours trying to sculpt the thing, if necessary. I like artsy projects. I just have no idea where to start. My usual idea of making a cake is the all-in-a-box stuff besides, I'm not sure I have enough time to get that pan in the mail if I order it online.

lawrocket 3 #4 February 22, 2008 Get some cake mix and a couple of pans. if you have square pans - sweet! Make batter for two square or rectangular pans Bake them. With a long knife, cut off the top that flows over the top of the pan making a flat surface. Cut the thing in half lengthwise. Put some icing on the top of one half and put the other half on top. Voila - fuselage. Get another two rectangular pans and repeat. DO NOT cut off the top. Merely cut in half diagonally. Voila. Two wings. With the last one, cut intot the shape of a tailplane and stabilizers. Frost it. There's your airplane. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigway 4 #10 March 1, 2008 GEt about an ounce of the shake from a pound of weed. Simmer it in a block of butter for about 6-8 hours. Make sure it is filthy black. Then continue with the rest of your cake. My personal suggestion is to then go to a 'pub hypnotist' after eating the cake. My mates and i did this, he hypnotised my buddy and 6 other people. Sat them on chairs in front of people and told them they have a musical instrument, trumpets etc... and for them to start jamming. As everyone got up and started going ape shit with their invisible instruments my mate fell off his chair and lay on the floor with his foot tapping to the beat in his head. LMAO I swear that day was the funniest day of my life. Was a fantastic birthday cake. .Karnage Krew Gear Store . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
