I’d like to tell you about the worst cake I’ve ever baked. Probably best not to look if you’re uncomfortable with blood, teeth and sweet, delicious Frankensteined fondant flesh.

I run a facebook group where I post cakes with threatening auras. These can be either deliberate or unintentional. To celebrate hitting a milestone for members, I proposed that I would bake a cake, with the features to decided by vote. The top results were the following:

1. Teeth
2. Fleshy colour palette
3. Blood
4. All of the above but a Minion cake

Honestly the minion part was the worst for me. Here’s my process for creating a cake so terrible that the question “cake or death?” yields 50/50 results.

Hopefully this is more useful visually than as full steps. I didn’t take photos at each stage.

Overall, I was happy with how terribly this turned out. I promise the next post will be a more aesthetically pleasing treat
