That's tough! They're all awesome!
I'd say a cross between the MOMA and the Imperial Star Destroyer

Now just WHAT is that suppose to mean? Those are all made with real cake. Homemade buttercream frosting.

The Star Destroyer is a 2 layer white cake. The museum is a 4 layer cake with the base layer a devil's food cake, because it's dense and a good foundation, the top is white cake. The Fire engine is a white cake. The Turkey is a yellow cake. The heart is decadente Red Velvet, boy that took forever to make. the car is a grape layer cake with grape buttercream. The rest are all white cakes.


FYI the Death Starr didn't fit in the frigde so it had to stay on the counter. it started out a perfect sphere but it was a hot day in the middle of the summer and well.....it kind of melted.

I had a better version of the Falcon but when delivered no one had a camera! It looked just like it was a model of the ship!

...Did anyone else try to lick the screen?

Also, awesome work. My favourite is the Turkey, though the New York Museum of Modern Art comes a close second.

The museum and the imperial star destroyer are my favourites, though I must say I have seen more awesome cakes. Still, I couldn't do it, and I would eat one of those whenever.

This one lasted about 18 hours before being disassembled. As for its wireless capability the computer it was modeled after had wi-fi so I'd imagine that the cake version would have it too.

I've been asked why the turkey doesn't have a sculpted head before and my answer is that he's got it tucked in because the cake was made for Thanksgiving weekend so he is trying to keep his head on.

I'm thinking the next time I make a laptop cake that will bake into somewhere one of those square fancy chocolates as the processor of the computer.

Just so you all know the Tom Turkey cake looks impressive but it was really quite easy. The shape was made by baking the cake in a 8 in pie plate, a 9 inch pie plate and a pyrex 1 1/2 quart round mixing bowl(its the Death Star's secret too). All I had to do to get the shape was to flatten one side of the dome, Trim the cakes baked in the pie plates to line up stack up and frost. It was so easy it was the quickest cake I've ever put together. The details on the back are Chocolate candy corns, also known as indian corn.

The Imperial Star Destroyer was made for a baking contest in my area and I won first prize with it. I made another one, not quite as good, for a dessert contest at the place where I worked and I came in second to the boss's Pecan Pie.

I like the turkey. Looks the most complicated. Also the candy around it looks delicious.

They are all really good, but I like the computer the best due to the amont of detail on the keyboard. The turkey is the 2nd best one.

I'm glad you like that. It took a while to do and I ended up with writer's cramp after.

You should shrink the SD to 120x120 px, then post it in the current Space Opera IA contest as a Best Ship entry.

Nice!
