Haha No, I do see the sun. She asked me what Cake I would like for my Birthday today and I asked for a Super-Hero cake. I gave her my design ideas and she created this. I really wanted to challenge her cake making skills and she rose way above me expectations.

Much, much, much better than I expected before clicking.
Awesome Mom!

In this case you are allowed to say "she did good".

I generally find fondant to be cheating, but she really put a lot of effort into the details. This is a great looking cake... though it will take a while to get all that fondant off before you can eat it.
Maybe just turn each layer over and scoop out the cake like a bowl?

In the UK you can eat our fondant. Every part of that cake is editable.

You can technically eat it here too, but it tastes like plastic.

Oh, it's quiet nice here. Some people say it's their favourite part.

Pretty fuckin' badass. I'd imagine she's a pastry chef?

What's the second last one?

As in the second layer? That is Iron Man.

Yes it is... Awesome cake but the iron man needs some ostentatious gold with that hotrod red.

I think she did well.
Sorry, but no, she didn't. Spidey should be on top, not Batman.

The cake wasn't about what superhero trumps which. It was just my favourite ones put in a random order. Batman was on the top purely because we wanted to do a sort of 'bat signal' on the top of the cake.

it's just fondant... it's not like it takes anything more than skills at cutting around a printed pattern

No stencils were used in the making of this cake, Each layer had to be individually designed, air-brushed to the correct colour and then each logo had to be created by hand and placed onto the corresponding layer. It is a lot harder than you think. I would love to see your attempt at making a cake this good.

I wouldn't touch fondant with a 10 foot pole. it's the wal mart of cake icing.

It may be called 'Sugar Paste' in the US. I have just been told they are two different things.

Fuck that. Let's see you knock one out then.

This is my reaction every time.

I like how it starts with Marvel on the bottom and then suddenly switches to DC
Obviously Batman is triumphantly at top in his rightful place
As it should be.
As usual the marvel characters have to carry DC.
