    My wife is pretty clever with a rolling pin and flour. And she is a feeder which is why, in fifteen years I've gone from a svelte 11 stone up to 18 stone. I've recently lost three of that and aiming for 13...

    However, like I said, she likes making things that taste the bees knees. I've known she wanted to make something special for my fortieth and I caught her stressing over it a week ago.

    Her original plan was to make me an alien - from Giger's original design. We had met him at his gallery in Switzerland for my thirtieth so, with him passing this year, it was only right to link up the past and present.

    After seeing how she was worried about making a pigs ear out of it, I suggested she make the egg instead. And here it is...

    I just wanted to give her props for the hard work! Oh, and if you live in Essex, I'm whoring out her cake making skills to all and sundry for a price!

    Awesome!

    Bah! Fat people tend to be more cheerful and have a better sense of humour than non fat people in my experience. Far more valuable than being a little tosser obsessed with his figure!
    Very cool! What's he like? Odd? Does he look tired, bearing in mind if I were him the last thing I'd want to do is sleep?!

    That is an impressive, impressive piece of cakemaking!

    Pete, I think you're getting your tenses mixed up - Giger died in May this year... :(

    It would be a shame to actually eat such a well crafted cake

    It would be a shame not to eat a cake someone has baked for you


    DAMN YOU INFINITE LOOP PARADOX! :wallbash:

    Normally I'm not a fan of cake sculpture, but this is simply amazing.

    That is a really well done cake... a lot of effort must've gone into it...

    ...so it can be happily destroyed and eaten...
