the ms pacman cake and the centipede cake, side view:
the front view:
i'm not too happy with either of those. oh, well. too late to do anything about it now.
and a better pic of the gameboy cake:
there's tetris on the screen. i made tetris cookies to go with it because it's a small cake and it needed something.
now i've got to dash. i need to get a shower in before the wonderful volunteer arrives to pick up my cakes. then it's off to ballard to, hopefully, tour the top of the library. this will be followed by breakfast and a quick hop to the phinney ridge comm center for the 826 variety show and cakewalk. after that, it's haircuts. and then, if we still have energy (which i'm doubting) it's off to the center for bite of seattle.
*whew!* i'm exhausted just reading that.

Boingboinged. Nice one =) I got boinged on Friday with my Goatse t-shirt... a good weekend!
you know that we always tag team on press, shedlette! :D! it wouldn't be right if we didn't!
congrats on your shirt mention, btw! i missed seeing it, sorry!
Awesome! We have that Centipede in the store. My favorite arcade game from when I was a kid. Besides Gorf.
you're KIDDING!!! god, we've got to get up to baltimore to visit you guys!!
i'm going to play both centipede and ms pacman today because we're going back to the game on exhibit with some friends! w00ts!
See, ain't that a bummer about not using Flickr any more, that you have this whole set over there, and everyone pointing there for stuff, and there's nothing you can really do about it? Websites suck :(
oh, pshaw! i'm not going back to flickr. i don't have time to keep up with all of my contacts.
websites suck but they're MUCH easier to deal with on a daily basis. ;D
thanks so much!!
it's my favorite too! (i'm actually not too fond of the cabinets.)
Best looking cakes ever!
I want an NES Cake. Do you sell these online?
thanks, chad!
no, sorry, i don't sell the cakes. i don't think they'd survive shipping.
but i'm thinking about selling cupcakes through my etsy site soon. i have to do some trial shipments as soon as the heatwaves' over to make sure they stay fresh enough through priority mail.
Yummmmmmmm
BRAVO. They are too adorable for words.
i love the cakes, about how big are they?
Nice cakes, I really like the NES cake. = )
it reminds me "THE NEVERHOOD",
someone remember it?
NICE! I want to eat a line of tetris piece cakes, :D .
thanks, everyone! you're really too kind about some melty cakes! haha!
the neverhood looks awesome, marco d! here's a link for anyone that's interested!
in anwser to how large the cakes are, they're only 9 inches tall (about 23 cm give or take a bit), 4 inches (around 10 cm) wide and 2 inches deep (around 5 cm) at the thickest part, 1/2" (1.5 cm) or so at the thinnest. i made them in a bread pan. haha!
thanks, marco and reno!
oh, and looksy! i'll be sending your package out today! thanks!!
The Bite, we were just there.
were you really? how on earth were you able to tolerate such a large crowd in this heat?
and, a better question, was there any good food? (i didn't make it to the bite.)
These are great. Good job :-)
thanks so much, tahir!
What a great job! Please come by to www.GamingAngels.com to post about your cakes!
FAB cakes, girl! And you're from Seattle, too! HUZZAH!
thanks, ladies! :D!
i live in seattle now, jessie, but i only moved here last year during bumbershoot weekend.
so that moron that you saw driving a uhaul and towing a car through the traffic in queen anne? that was me. HAHAHAH!!
These are awesome. I especially love the Gameboy with the Tetris cookies. So clever!
thanks, jennifer!
nah, not so much clever as i just needed something to go with a tiny, melty cake. haha! but thanks!
Brilliant stuff. Takes me back to my '80s arcade days.
thanks so much, sean! :D!
So, who gets to eat them? Me, right? :-D
haha! if i had any left over, you could certainly have them, os!
they were donated to a cakewalk benefit for 826 seattle a few weeks ago. i'm not sure who won them.
Ce gateau est trop drole, je veux le manger, en + j'adore ses couleurs.
Mais...a-t-il bon goût ?
merci ! mes amis qui a mangé l'en trop des gâteaux les a appréciés s'ils doivent avoir goûtés bien.
(mon français n'est pas très bon. :()
These are good. I was recently at a wedding where this was the wedding cake! It was even better than the photos show.
thanks!
how lucky for you that you were at that wedding! :D!
i'd seen the shots around the web the other day--it looks magnificent!
