My wife is getting into cake decorating, and she just made this cake for a friend's birthday.
It blew me away. I'm so proud, I'm posting some pics to share with you guys!

The whole thing is edible (Edit: even those butterflies!). She made everything. It took her almost 12 hours of work. She spent almost half of that making the flowers.
And it's mutha f*ing chocolate too, none of this namby pamby vanilla shite... ;D
Now I am hungry ;D
Does the fondant taste good? All of the fondant I have had was pretty bland...

Fondant never tastes good, it just makes things look good.

Really?! I actually prefer it to buttercream! I like to consume my saturated fats in forms other than icing, so fondant is more to my taste! ;D
Except I don't normally get to eat her cakes. They tend to go places I'm not invited too... :-\

There are a couple of variations of fondant made out of marshmallows that are decent and super easy to work with, compared to normal fondant, that is. It's still not as tasty as chocolate ganache. ;D
Man, I love cake, and that one is very impressive. Bring on the sugar coma!
