So, a whole long time ago I showed you guys my "draft copy" of a groom's cake - the first cake I ever made, in the shape of a Nintendo system from the 80s. That was here: http://s27.photobucket.com/albums/c184/jammadave/NES%20Cake/

Well, I forgot to show you the pictures of the "Final copy", used at the wedding reception.

These are two really crappy pics, one big but glarey, especially on the glossy black gel icing, and the second a better pic, but small, taken with my phone.
As soon as I get my hand on the ones the wedding photog took I'll show those off.

Hope you like it! I did some things better, but made at least two mistakes in "accuracy" that I had not in the first draft; they just slipped my mind.

And the controllers are actually the same ones - the second versions of the didn't look quite as good.

Oh, and nobody would cut it at the wedding - it finally got eaten a week later by the happy couple at home, and they told me it was delicious!

That cake is really cute! I love the little heart made form the cords, you did a great job, and that comes from a NES aficionado!
