Thanks to my brother, sister, her boyfriend, and her friends Shaun and Katie for the artistic and culinary abilities too! Obviously we're cutting it close and spent three nights up all night ... hope you enjoy! It is based on this It is based on this + Show Spoiler + The figures are made out of fondant. The armor, kerrigans wings, and warp blade are made out of airheads, and the jewels on Zeratul are Dumb Dumb suckers. Kerrigan's hair is black licorice. The cake is just a plain vanilla cake. The lettering is also done in fondant, made larger than the original portrait because it was not easy to cut such small letters -_- Edit: Mods, note the latest update is more recent than 18:00, but the image was in the post before the deadline. | ||

I'm going as far to say it looks like there are now several cakes that overshadow Vincze's cake, which was thought impossible. I honestly do not think it is possible for the judges to pick ONLY three winners. I reiterate, WHAT THE FUCK | ||

With alot of powdered sugar knead in. That way you can only work on it when it's heated up in the microwave. At room temperature it will harden again. Also it's quite delicious, with all the sugar. ;D We didn't have issues with ours hardening, but more like not hardening - we couldn't get it to keep any minor details without returning to it's original shape. Should we just try to keep kneading in more powdered sugar, or is there more to it? Alright, here is how to make our great marshmallow-fondant: about 150 g Marhmallows and 0.5 kg powdered sugar add a tablespoonful of water to the marshmallows and then melt the marshmallows in the microwave and knead in about half of the powdered sugar using a mixer, for the rest of it use the hands in between again and again heat them up in the microwave it's quite sticky, but it's worth it, since the marshmallow-fondant is much better shapeable when it's warm and when it's cold it's much harder and also lasts longer than normal 'rollfondant' (dunno if it's the same in english, that's what my gf wrote). Also, watch out, the marshmallows can get very very hot! About that Barbie-doll thing: Nope, we didn't use a barby doll, just skill. ;P And as you can see on one of those photos we used a true to scale image of kerrigan, which helped alot with the proportions. | ||

Also have to say I really like Kalectotite's cakes. THey may use fondant or marzipan or whatever on the outside, but it's spread on a cake base. From a culinary perspective I prefer that to a cake with a fondant figure on top, even if the pure fondant figures sitting on a cake might look a little better. | ||

Im afraid of cheking this page again tomorrow Edit: A suggestion: one of the three winners could not be made of marzipan i see what you are saying lol at least 1 winner should be just a cake. and whoever made that cake is a Master baker AWESOME MAN!!! | ||

Also, watch out, the marshmallows can get very very hot! Our ingredient levels were a bit different, so it could be why ours didn't come out as well. We also did all of our sugar by hand instead of mixing it in. Thanks, we'll try it out. | ||
