Following on from the hilarious is my hedgehog fucked thread, I thought I'd pick up my tools and make another cake. Specifically for BIL's big 30th birthday party.

Be honest, is there any saving this? Or am I destined to a life where people point at me in the street and laugh? Wink

Ta da! Looked more like a big mouse to start but think I got there in the end. Doesn't look exactly like the tv character but looks cute and sure the 3 year old won't judge me too harshly (it is cake after all!). Tired now. Been working on it since around 5 and haven't had any supper yet.

That’s fab Harrison! Bear Star

Haggisfish · 09/08/2018 23:19

Wow! Loved the first hedgehog. Hope stormtrooper mark two is gong ok...

babyboyHarrison · 10/08/2018 09:07

My daughter saw the cake in progress yesterday and on seeing the bear cake today she asked where the mouse cake was. Typical hey, think she was disappointed there wasn't a second cake! She did then come over to me later and say thank you for the cake and gave me the best cuddle so I think it's a win. Now just need to tidy the house from top to toe and decorate, do a full day of work and have grannies over for supper. Think it's going to be a late night.

Good luck with the stormtrooper, hope it's going ok and looking forward to an update. I remember the hedgehog cake thread and the minion was awesome.

MsJolly · 10/08/2018 09:17

Can't wait to see this storm trooper!

MrsMotherHen · 10/08/2018 09:49

wow that hedgehog was pretty shit well the second one was great the first not so much.

Can not wait to see this one.

WitchDancer · 10/08/2018 09:56

I'm not place marking at all, I'm here to cheer and praise the final result. 😁

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 10/08/2018 10:32

This is reminding me why I've never really embraced shaped cakes!

JPduck · 10/08/2018 11:23

@babyboyHarrison - looks super!

CrystalMethHog · 10/08/2018 14:18

@babyboyHarrison W that's amazing well done! Did it taste nice?

So..... it's all done. And it looks splendid. Mr stormtrooper still looks a bit constipated but after a stressful week at work I've resigned to the fact that it's not the end of the world.

I need to wait till Saturday for the party to assemble it. Can you all wait till then? Both cakes are currently wrapped within an inch of their lives in cling film Wink

You tease, been waiting all day for your picture. Wink
Off cuts of the cake taste nice but will have to wait till the party tomorrow to try a proper slice. Better taste nice as with the size of it we'll be eating it for a while!

JennaTools · 10/08/2018 15:03

The suspense for this cake is killing me

PeachyKeenJellymonster · 10/08/2018 16:23

LeighaJ · 10/08/2018 17:27

I just saw the original hedgehog cake, it is the stuff nightmares are made of. Shock

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 10/08/2018 17:38

Didn't somebody else have a very surprised looking fox recently? I think it was the eyes again.

CrystalMethHog · 11/08/2018 01:22
