LOL...yes he really wants a tiered cake made out of chicken nuggets...lol...i told him i would see if it was possible...lol...just thought you would like a laugh or maybe you have actually heard of other people wanting this too...lol...

little cake balls shaped like chicken nuggets or actual chicken nuggets? Yes, it's possible - but real chicken nuggets will be nasty cold and yucky by the time people eat it.

He wants actual chicken nuggets or cake made to look like chicken nuggets?
If it's the latter, would start with small squares and rectangles of pound cake and carve it to the shape.

nope...he wants real McDonald's Chicken Nuggets...lol...this is what i was thinking...a 8" plate with nuggets stacked like bricks then a 6" plate with the sauce containers on it stacked the same way...then a 4" plate with nuggets stacked the same...lol...this will be completely trial and error...and we will just have to see how it comes out...but i will definitely post picks of it no matter what it turns out like...lol

It's totally doable - but will be nasty to eat - nuggets are bad enough hot - but cold? No way!

McDonalds is having a deal, 50 nuggets and two drinks for $10. Maybe they'd give you extra sauce packets instead of the drinks.

If you stack the nuggets without the sauce packets, then your tower of nuggets could perhaps be warmed in the oven before being presented, then the groom and his buddies can eat them right away. Maybe make a smaller tower of the sauces. Or make a base of sauces that the nugget tower could be set on top of just before the big presentation. I think this really is something that cannot be left out for display, like the bridal cake, but rather make a special presentation of it right be fore it gets eaten. The DJ/MC can make some kind of announcement.

Here is a blog post with an example.

I don't know what she has in the center of her tower. I think it would be better to make it all out of nuggets, perhaps using toothpicks.
