Now that's the kind of cake that would be cool at a Geek Wedding (if Geeks indeed wed).
Holy tugnuts! That is a cool cake! It helps that the base is white chocolate and I can eat white chocolate until I puke...

Me + CowGirl?
Bill + Melinda Gates?
Druid + his wife (she doesn't have an account on here)?
See, there's three geek weddings there!
How exactly is your wife a "geek"?
(or is she Greek and you just need glasses?) ;)
Erm, I'm a geek? I assumed only half the wedding party needed to be a geek for it to be a geek wedding. I suppose you meant that two geeks would wed each other, and only that would be a geek wedding...

For those interested: the skin was fondant, the wings, claws, and end of the tail were modeling chocolate, and there was a small metal armature buried in cake supporting the neck.
The cake parts were very delicious.
This cake was made by Mike's Amazing Cakes:

Nah, it has to be geek/geek because otherwise the "normals" won't conform to dressing up as Stormtroopers, wearing capes and elf ears or enjoying delicious XP enriched fantasti-cakes.

Dude, that is so sweet...
If you've ever seen one of those Food Network challenges, something like that is terrifically difficult.
Eating it would be a crime somewhere I bet

To many cake
artists it is probably a crime to NOT eat them.
Even more bizarro cakes...

Did you see the Dragon Cake is listed? And it's a picture with other household items in it (plates) so you can see just how big of a dragon it really is.
