I know we have heard about Martha Stewart having something similar, but this article was funny to read and interesting...with full instructions and photos! Take a look! Something to think about when someone doesn't want sugary cake! icon_wink.gif

Oh my gosh! When I first started to read that I wanted to vomit, but it's pretty funny and I know my family would get a huge kick out of a "cake" like that on our table (everyone in this house likes meatloaf).

Did any of you see the "chicken cake" one of our cc friends uploaded yesterday? Very creative, not to mention addicted to cakes! icon_lol.gif

oh my gosh!!! It would be TOO hilarious to make a "backwards day" meal!! Make meat cake for dinner and the chicken cake for dessert! (also saw a cake here that looked JUST like a bowl of spaghetti)

We had a thread on this around April fool's day this year.....I still get confused just thinking about it....but I think it's hysterical!!
My "steak cake" would be perfect for a switcharoo dinner.....maybe on Halloween...hmmmm

adven I just looked at your photos and all your cakes are AWSOME and I was wondering if you were willing to share your steak cake recipe and directions with us? I know some people dont like to share and I understand if you dont want too but I just have to ask lol. Thanks

Thank you very much! I never have a problem sharing ideas...the only thing that stops me is lack of time.... icon_smile.gif

The steak cake was pretty easy....it was actually leftover cake...It's pretty true to size....for a VERY thick steak! I drew and cut out a steak shape and placed it on my cake and cut it out. So easy cause any way you cut it is fine....
I covered it in a thick coat of BC and then white fondant. I used my fingers and a bone folder (looks like a dull letter opener) to sort of outline where the t-bone will be. I depressed the "steak part just a tad so the "bone" looked as if it were just a tad more pronounced. Then I painted. I thinned out some red & burgundy colors w/vodka and sort of marbled it, except for the bone part. Then I used a very diluted wash of
beige and brown for the "fatty parts with just some pink here and there...

The USDA stamp, I handpainted with some blue....again....perfection is not wanted here.

The sign was an edible image on a plaque of fondant with 2 skewers...

That's about it.......and it was definately a hit with my dad and brothers on Father's Day! icon_biggrin.gif

That's hilarious!

I remember one year in family fun mag there was an april fool's day dessert and it was either breakfast or dinner but it was all cake and ice cream made to look like real food. Eggs and bacon or steak and something, can't remember. I thougt that was what this post was about until I clicked on it.
