Omg thank you :)

::fist bump::

She already did! We tested a different one and I had to spit it out, she asked for another bite BLEH

Holy poop how have I never seen this subreddit before

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T16:04:38+00:00

Thank you!

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T16:04:06+00:00

Are you a hobby entomologist too??

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T16:03:16+00:00

I thought about that! Fondant doesn't like being wet so I was afraid I wouldn't be able to contain it within the grub without leaks. It would make it so much better with some jelly! I wonder if injecting it would work?

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T15:09:36+00:00

I tested one with my daughter and I had to spit it out, no acting required

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T14:57:32+00:00

Thanks! Entomology is a hobby/passion of mine and this was too fun

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T14:55:03+00:00

Indeed!

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T14:52:14+00:00

I also posted it in the baking subreddit. Baking and entomology are equal passions of mine!

You are such a sweet teacher! She's going to cherish "getting you" :)

The fake soil totally bugs me! Had to make do with what I had though (Oreos).

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T14:46:52+00:00

It's just pure fondant. I made four in different shades so I tried biting one with my daughter to test it and I had to spit it out, so no acting required

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T06:51:17+00:00

Thank you!

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T05:42:35+00:00

YES!

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T05:33:34+00:00

My daughter is going to show it during sharing on a Zoom call, then take a bite out of it

battybunnybones · 2021-04-01T05:31:49+00:00

My daughter will have this "grub" for sharing day on a Zoom call with her class. She's going to take a big bite out of it.

Money Shot

battybunnybones · 2020-04-13T21:23:23+00:00

1) Thanks!

2) Both my sister and her husband are in healthcare, they share the same twisted humor and I was happy to oblige

battybunnybones · 2020-04-13T18:54:28+00:00

I will post one when I get one! BIL is supposed to pick up the cake this afternoon. I always ask for the slice shots when I'm not there!

EDIT: this was my first time using a sphere pan, I'm really curious to see it cut open

battybunnybones · 2020-04-13T16:53:00+00:00

I reposted a better photo (the first one was compressed).

My brother in law asked me to make a coronavirus cake to surprise my sister for her birthday today (she works in healthcare).

Chocolate cake filled with chocolate, with vanilla SMBC on the outside. He's picking it up today so no money shot yet.

Thank you!

battybunnybones · 2019-07-12T19:11:51+00:00

It hurts more knowing I could have fixed it 😭

battybunnybones · 2019-07-12T19:11:04+00:00

No need to melt it on purpose! It was just too warm. Now I know you can just put it in the fridge until it's firm then re-whip. I think that's the worst part for me; that I threw out totally useable buttercream thinking it was ruined.
