I was planning on it sucking way less than this, but things go a little differently when you've got a screaming baby in the background. You'll find that out soon enough.

It's a vanilla cake with orange jello swirls. The ghost is orange coconut, the yellow is tinted white chocolate, eyeballs are craisins and the eyebrows are fruit leather.

Hahaha. Kitsa, that is the most badass cake ever. I'm deeply honored. How long did it take? My friend does screen printing for onesies so I'm going to get a 10 k volt ghost onesie.

Thank you. Not counting the coconut-tinting process, he took about 10 minutes, maybe a little less. I just scattered the coconut in a vaguely correct shape, piped the melted chocolate where that went and trimmed the fruit leather with a paring knife.

I'll do a cutaway piece tonight when I get back home to it...or tomorrow morning at the latest.

it's tinted coconut and yes, it does look a lot like cheese.

You put food coloring in warm water, then add the coconut. It won't work without the water, won't be consistent.

Thanks.

Good plan, but Kitsa's married and I don't think she would have....

Wait, you mean a piece of cake don't you?

My bad

Thanks, I don't think it would send well though. Especially in the summer and whatnot.

Pentegarn, you continue to be a lol a minute.

I like the jello thing a lot because it keeps the cake really moist. Basically, you take a cooled cake, punch it all over with a fork, mix up a batch of jello and pour it over the cake, then chill it till the jello sets. My aunt used to do it when I was a kid, it's nothing sophisticated, but it works.

Mr. Kitsa decided he didn't like the cake because it looked like sour cream and cheese instead of vanilla icing and coconut. I told him that he should have thought of those things before he got with someone who does food art.

Now you have to make 10,000 v ghost bento style.

Doesn't that cake count? It looks like it eats like a meal, anyway.

campbell's chunky soup :(

I'm about bento-ed out for the time being. Have to be inspired to spend time on that shit.
