Shameless showing off - I made a Lego Batman cake for Elysium 2.0!
Saturday, September 26th, 2009 - 12:44am
I know this is just patting myself on the back, but I put hours of work into something that is going to be devoured by a horde of kindergarteners in about 12 hours, and I want to show off my handiwork.
Behold - Lego Batman - The Cake!


Thanks for indulging me. I'm just so pleased with how it turned out (except for the bulginess of the sides of the actual cake, but I was more focused on the figures on top!). Elysium 2.0 is going to go bananas when he sees it in the morning! ![]()
Talk nerdy to me.


Awesome job! That just looks great - even the bat symbol came out good! I'm sure you're going to be "the worlds best mom (tm)" for years to come

Not only is that a great looking cake, it's also the most kickass videogame cake I've seen in a while.
Congrats on being the coolest mom of all time by the way

Awesome cake, I hope you have a camera ready for when Elysium 2.0 sees it.

Cakes in general are, clearly, awesome - but that adds a whole extra layer of awesome to the mix

Are you going to post the picture of his reaction? : )
This is delightful, your boy is very lucky to have such a cool mom.

Aww, it's almost a shame that it will be devoured! I bet the wee one is going to be ecstatic.

Wow!
Elysia, in all seriousness, you could probably make some money doing that on the side. If filthy lucre wouldn't wreck your enjoyment of the hobby, might be something to look into.
And yes, please do post pictures of Elysium 2.0's reaction.

So are those legos on top big chunks of pure frosting deliciousness, or do they have cake inside them?
Yet again, another awesome cake!

Wow! That's incredible! Go you.
Question: Did you use modeling chocolate or fondant for the characters? (I've been doing modeling in fondant, but I hate how inedible they turn out once they harden...been thinking about switching to chocolate.) That said; nothing I've modeled is as cool as those Lego men.

Goodjer- Peron: sh*t was on the cartoon.
Peron- That's just nasty.

Goodjer- Asz:I like boobs and technology... Now if only there were more boobs.
That is outstanding.
