This is my Zerg base. I made my buildings and caracters according to them looks in the Starcraft2. Its foundation is a gateau, everything else is made of marzipan colored with spetial paint for dishes, except the minerals, which are made of white mint flavoured candies, also colored with that paint. (Becous i haven't found blue candies.) In this way everything made to be eatable on my cake. It took me nearly 2 days to make it, but it was worth the time :D

While I respect that its very difficult to make those marzipan cakes, does anyone else feel that its a little unfair to be judging cakes that dont use marzipan against ones that are almost entirely made out of it?

Hey guys!
I decided to build a Colossus, which resulted too be much more difficult than I thought it would be. In the end I was also sabotaged by my dog, who really seemed to like the marzipan...
Anyway, I don't want to start it over again, so I post the picture which was in the farest progress already. Still missing the details though.

No dinner for you boy...

Hi,

I made a Starcraft cake with the help of my sister. The idea was to recreate a scene from a famous Starcraft game. Let's see if you can guess it.

Making the cake in pictures:
+ Show Spoiler +

The cake base is pretty straight forward. I made two, one for the ground, the other for the buildings.

Covering the ground with chocolate for a brown underground and for the taste

Cutting out from the second cake base for the buildings, here nexus.

Adding details to the Nexus.

OMG, ITS THE BISU BUILD (and also a forge):

Some MUTALISKEEEEEEEEEEEEEE and some SCOURGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE:

The result:

Whole cake from one side:

From the view of the Mutalisks:

Materials:

-food coloring
-cake base, covered with chocolate
-2nd cake base for buildings
-marmelade to 'glue' buildings (they taste and look best imho

)
-frosting for the gras
-icing for the pylon and minerals (both self made)
-marcipan for all the units
-tin foil for the power generator
-fishing line to attach air units to grill

Have you guessed it? Let me give you another hint, these are the players:

Jaedong vs Stork OSL finals, game two on Katrina. It is in pimpest plays 2007 btw.

Corsairs were a bitch to do, I still don't know how a corsair should look.

The hatchery+base is gosu....Although all the cakes are GREAT looking and the makers are so talented, I'd end up with a blob.

Hey guys this is my entry, its a Baneling Cake modelled on this:
+ Show Spoiler +

http://starcraft.incgamers.com/w/images/thumb/3/3e/Baneling_concept.jpg/677px-Baneling_concept.jpg

I'm going to give a little description of how I made it so you can appreciate the actual baking i did too on top of the marzipan details.

I baked my own Choux Pastry and filled them with fresh whipped cream to make something similar to huge Profiteroles/Cream Buns. The legs were made using chocolate fingers coated in marzipan to give it extra detail and texture. The buns were wrapped individually with marzipan before I covered them all with green icing sugar. Then once it had set, I did the black detail with a piping bag. Finally, I sculpted the marzipan horns and teeth. The work was done by myself and my girlfriend! Hope you guys enjoy it!
