Cut Out + Keep

Gaaaaagh, Maggots!

A cake even I thought I'd leave untouched!

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/gaaaaagh-maggots • Posted by Welandra

While making the cake I got shivers from the maggots and started getting more and more grossed. The topping is marzipan dyed with black and the maggots are made from pasta which base is chokolate. "Blood" is lime curd dyed with red. The cake itself is called red velvet cake, though mine isn't that red, the stupid color was too light. :P Put in little some extra, aka blueberry soup mixed with raspberry-blueberry jam and hoped it would make the cake "bleed" when cut. Sadly it didn't, but ateast I tried! The recipes for the red velvet cake and dark and white chokolate pastas can be found from www.kotikokki.net though the whole site is in finnish.
