The cake is a lie!

I'm loving this whole "making stuff" scheme! I got a few requests this weekend for some sushis and cakes, so when I got home from my trip to see my boyfriend (and buy a textbook, which shouldn't cost as much as it did, grrr) I spent some time with clay. In order to get the extra slice I needed for the earrings, I ended up making two whole cakes. I should really just make one cake for the sole purpose of cutting up, but I haven't yet. And here I am with an extra cake minus a slice. What does any good Portals fan do? The Cake Is A LIE. (Plus, I got the comment that the cakes I had made looked similar, but weren't THE cake. So here is THE cake.)



Maybe I'll get some gray and make a companion cube. I had to incinerate mine.

Dessert, anyone?

Chocolate makes everything better, and these are diet-proof! I haven't been getting out to exercise so much, so I haven't been eating as much chocolate as I feel I need. I'm trying to satisfy my craving for sweets by making them out of Sculpy instead. Truffles were the first ones up! They make cute little dangles.

They've got raspberry filling, and chocolate shavings on top. Again, I debated about the glazing, but my dad pointed out that we should "do research" on truffles first; namely go out and buy a box and see if they're shiny. And then consume them. I concur. So the next ones may be shiny, or not, depending on the results of our findings.

I also baked cake. With whipped cream and strawberries. They still need to have findings put on, but the slices will be earrings, and the cake is the pendant.
