For my Year 11s last lesson I made them a geographical cake! One of them suggested that I should make them an Earth cake and as they have worked so hard and are a fab class I'd thought I'd give it a go.
The result was awesome!!! Not to blow my own trumpet too much, it was a lot of work and I was very pleased with the final cake. The cake itself was chocolate Victoria sponge with chocolate butter cream. The 'earth' icing was originally white, I had to dye it blue and green, kneading the food colouring in was not easy I tell you! But the end result was worth it. The countries were cut free hand too.
The kids were very grateful and gave me a round of applause, bless, they also said the cake was yummy - I don't think they would have said even if it was awful!
Here is the completed cake - I hope Cake Boss would be proud!
