Description
Bye Bye Apocalypse has always intrigued me. I love the way overall grim image is so delicately made up of sweet, innocent pieces that slowly emerge the longer you look at it. So I thought, why not make it a sugary treat?!
I really wanted to play on the optical illusion, so I created all of the detail pieces out of gum paste, and positioned them carefully in front of the shaped cake covered and decorated in fondant. Overall, with baking the cakes from scratch, I'd say the entire cake took me about 15 or 16 hours... but they were the most relaxing, and fun hours of my week!
Well, as you can see, the guys were fighting for the first piece. And yes, it was yum!
