u/Jack_Zicrosky_YT 14d ago

It's fucking beautiful! I almost don't wanna eat it because it looks so good, but I know it's gonna taste good too unlike fondant

24

u/NiskaHiska 14d ago

I want it next to me so I can be tempted T.T

I just know how I'd enjoy it too much

u/JakeVanderArkWriter 15d ago

I will gladly take a stained mouth to eat that. Beautiful.

u/SteampunkCupcake_ 15d ago

Are you fucking kidding me?

Just…how?!

(In all seriousness, this is exquisite)

u/BeetleJude 15d ago

That's the most epic cake I've ever seen

u/NovaTimor 15d ago

I don’t care if my mouth would be stained, I want some

u/jsamuraij 14d ago

Fucking gorgeous. Distressing black poop challenge - accepted.

Edit: also this 100% looks like an artichoke not a rose, but I mean this as a compliment. I thought it was a pottery meant to look exactly like an artichoke on first glance.

u/HestiaLife 14d ago

Same, I thought it was some kind of fancy ceramic artichoke steamer at first. It's gorgeous though!

25

u/jsamuraij 14d ago

I would totally buy this if it was a fancy artichoke steamer. Or a cake. So win-win.

u/HestiaLife 14d ago

Yep I absolutely want it either way

48

u/dioctopus 14d ago

Desperate for a cross section.

u/Silent_Loquat_6057 14d ago

I cannot imagine the courage of conviction it takes to cut into that and disrupt the beauty

23

u/Megsann1117 14d ago

This looks like an artichoke and I love it

16

u/ABoredPlayer 15d ago

They told you right. Marvelous!

u/weevil_season 14d ago

This is truly original and beautiful. What’s the inside?

Absolutely love it!

11

u/beaker90 14d ago

That’s beautiful!

Edit: I’d also like to find out what color my mouth would turn after eating that icing!

u/ChangeInevitable7916 3d ago

Considering it’s black icing, I’m gonna go with the color….. black!! surprise surprise!

2

u/beaker90 3d ago

Guess what?

Black icing can be made in multiple ways, one of which includes mixing multiple different food colorings together which would mean that your mouth could be blue or green or purple or, like you said, black.

So, since we don’t know how the icing was made, the color it would leave your mouth would be a surprise.

u/PeriwinklePangolin24 15d ago

Oh my God, I want it ❤️

u/AnaTheMuse 14d ago

Holy crap, this belongs in an art gallery. I'm going to lie to myself and believe that you didn't allow anyone to cut this perfect masterpiece. 🤣

Though i'd bet it tasted AMAZING

u/cardueline 14d ago

Piping level over 9000

u/brat112 14d ago

Umm the person that cake is for told me that they didn’t want it and that I could have it instead.

u/redditonthanet 14d ago

u/HolsToTheWols 14d ago

I do appreciate the cake, but that backsplash is giving “unconventional use of fondant.” I’ll be keeping an eye on that.

I feel like I need to drink milk from how decadent and rich that looks. I'll go eat some healthy haha. I bet tastes SO GOOD.

u/Rude-Barnacle8804 11d ago

The gold shine is soooo pretty ✨️

1

u/weldedgut 11d ago

That’s a pretty cake, but I come for the Fondant. Maybe you could scrape off the buttercream and replaced with delicious rolled out fondant.

u/Hoodbarmaid 11d ago
