How I've spent my Sunday morning...

Ok, let me forewarn you - this post is not child-friendly.

Saturday one of my besties is having a shower and bachelorette party for her sister. The shower is at her house, and then the bachelorette party will be at our bar. I was honored when she asked me to make the cake for the bachelorette party. Specifically, the PENIS cake.

Now, I've never attempted such a cake before, so I was anxious to see what I could come up with. And, this is it:

Now, of course, this isn't frosted yet. I was just trying to get the...um...shape right. Truthfully, it's a bit shorter than I had planned. I used a bread mold for the shaft (I figured I would fill in the grooves with frosting) but I took it out of the oven a little too soon, and one end was still a little raw. I cut it off and put the tip on. Perfect! I was planning to make a yellow or white cake for Saturday, but since this was the practice one (AKA, the one I get to eat!!) I made a chocolate one first. :)

I think it's actually pretty good. What do you think? If any of you have any ideas, PLEASE share!! I have until Saturday to make the perfect cake for the party.

    You should see how the "thumbnail" looks on my blog's sidebar - very realistic!

    You just asked two gay men for input. Irony.
    I just can't imagine all the google searches you are going to get now for pen*s cake. This is why you get spam, I just know it.
    And you are going to eat this? You dirty dirty little girl.

    I think it would make more of an impact if you placed it "upright" on the plate! You could use the spheric adornments to secure it.

    I don't think you are supposed to frost it -but fill it with custard filling.

    You're too cool...wish I were going to the party!

    I've made one or two of these in my lifetime. I hope that I get to make more!
