Discworld Death

Discworld Death on Cake Central

My birthday cake. I'm obsessed with Pratchetts Discworld and 'Death' is my favourite character so I made a death by/in chocolate for my 60th birthday. It ended up over 2' tall; made up of 4x choc and caramel mud cakes and a ton of dark chocolate modelling paste. He has a mate; the tiny 'Death of Rats'. At the final hurdle, Deaths hands decided not to play the game and completely disintegrated so I had to emergency construct some replacements which look totally wrong and dont quite hold the scythe in place but in my defence- the cake tasted superb. Amusing fact; The skull is constructed around a small fir cone. I needed something a specific size and that fitted thus proving you can utilise anything you have handy so long as it is completely sealed from the edible part of the cake.
