Let Them Eat Cake...or Not

Jason's birthday was Thursday, so to celebrate, he had had a "guys night", complete with video games and snacks.

I always get a big kick out of making J's birthday cakes because the #1 reason I started making cakes was so that I could create original/special birthday cakes for my own husband/kids.

This year he's been really into "Warhawk", a PS3 game; so a Warhawk cake seemed to fit the bill.


Since the game is largely about fighter airplanes (and I'm not the world's greatest artist), I cheated and had an edible photo scanned from his video game box. The words around the sides all relate to the game ("Pocket_Sand" is his handle, "T2P" is his clan name, and KDR: 5.73 is a game stat. The back of the cake reads, "Wingman", which is J's current rank)

Jason loved it...and so did the guys. A little too much, I'm afraid. When I returned home after the party (it's was guys-only), the cake was still fully in tact. Not a piece gone. Anyone want some cake?

I love that you made a WarHawk cake. You are a great wife! And yes, I think they were afraid to mess it up...that's funny!
They have so much fun with that game, I love watching Jon get excited.
