Today was a great day! The sun was shining, I got to spend some time in the garden, and I delivered the Plants vs. Zombies cake!! This cake was so much fun to make. I even found myself giggling as the characters came together. I really don't have pictures or directions for the characters but I made them from fondant
(marshmallow fondant) and basically just played around until I got what I thought looked great. I also had lots of 'artistic direction' from the Boy and Hubby as they play this game and know more about the characters than I do.
The cake is my favourite
devil's food cake recipe and the rest is just a lot of fun! I hope the birthday boy enjoyed his cake!
Here are the characters I made to put on the cake.
Here's the cake for the characters to rest on!
And the cake all put together!!

ReplyDeleteWhat a cool cake! I want to do something like this on my son's birthday :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, oh my gosh. What fun. Boy, if we lived closer, I bet we'd have a blast going to cooking stores. Great post, again.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gruesome. I adore it. You do an amazing job with fondant. Wow how talented you are.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! This cake is a work of art!
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Wish I could make one like this for my son's upcoming birthday!
ReplyDeleteHow much fondant did it take to cover the cake and make the characters? My son has requested a PvZ cake for his birthday and I'm trying to figure out if I need to make more than one recipe of the fondant. Thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteBEST. CAKE. EVER. I think I wasted my whole summer last year playing that game. I was fresh out of college and unemployed....*sings* theres a zombieeee on the lawwwwn...dont want zombiesss on the lawwwn!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the lovely comments on this cake!
ReplyDeleteI used only one batch of fondant for this cake, but I also used some already coloured fondant I had stashed in the freezer. most likely it was equal to one batch of the Marshmalow fondant. It was so much fun to make this cake!
This cake is superb! You're such a great artist! I also want to make or to have that cake. Great job!
