My husband forwarded me this link and asked if we could make it. After being grossed out at the thought of a "meatloaf cake", I had to respond that actual cake, not meatloaf, was more my medium

Now that I think about it, it might actually be a fun project to try with my DH!

I like it! I would have never thought of doing that, good idea. Thank you

OMG! That is really hilarious. We may have to try it out.

OMG! I saw that, too!! My barbecue friend emailed me that! She said her dh would do the meat if I'd decorate it... I think we'll probably try it sometime.

My 6 yr old daughter and I did this and fed it to the family for dinner on April 1st as an April Fool's joke..."cake for dinner???!" My 3 yr old asked. Very fun to do, we used cooked peas as "dragees" and she helped pipe a shell border and some stars on top.

That's so funny! I think that this may be my DH's next B'day cake! Thanks for posting this.

I saw an episode of Surreal Gourmet & he did a baseball version using meatballs. He coated them with mashed potatoes and then used really thin strips of roasted red peppers for the stitches.

interesting.....................

my DH would appreciate one of those. He's a real meat man and doesn't care for cake at all.

OMG... I used to see cake pics that made to look like meat in the CC Gallery... now it's actually meat that is made to look like cake.

How funny I took a look and thought it was a cake then came back to read the posts and noticed it was NOT a cake. So I took another look!

I think it would be fun to make but I would hate to be served that thinking I was getting a yummy cake and then it was meatloaf! YUCK.

allibopp5...cute idea for April Fools Day. I am going to put that on my calendar for next year.

Wow! I was grossed out at first, but after I read what it contained, it actually didn't sound half bad! What a great alternative for a guy!

I think it would be fun to do this for dinner and have a dessert that looked like dinner ie, spaghetti cake or something like that! It would be so fun to take to a potluck!

this is awesome i just forwarded the link to my uncle who just requested a mexican layered cake
(think tamale layers ) too funny

I saw this on Martha Stewart some time ago. I thought it was a awesome idea.

that looks yummmyyyy

That is definitely clever!

Great job! That's awesome!

This is cool in a totally gross kind of way!

So funny!

That's awesome. I had an adverse reaction at first too but really, what a great 'cake' for a fella!
Thank you so much for sharing!

Imagine the poor guests who thought they were getting cake. LOL
