Tasty Tasty NES Cake

Author: Rees | Date: August 7, 2008

It’s been a while since we had a cake on here isn’t it? Oh, no it isn’t. Oh well.

Seems like the big trend this year is “geek cakes”, cakes of geek-tastic things like computers, games, etc. – so much so that we even have our very own gallery of them. The tasty creation you see above fits right into that category, and was made for a member of Kotaku who is leaving for a new job. On the construction of the cake, they had this to say:

“The cake is yellow, the controller is two Hershey bars with nougat between them, connected to the cake by black licorice, and the whole thing is that hard-sugar frosting.”

I’m not entirely sure what that means either, but it sure is a nice cake.

Wow that is some hard to understand grammar there! I think from my years of chef experience they were trying to say;

Its a sponge cake covered in royal icing (Thats the hard stuff you get on your crimbo cake). I am quite impressed by how they made the controller tho!

Hmmm Hersey Bars and Nougat!
