Threadcakes Competition


Life is exciting, and lately it has kept me from posting here. I do have several cake related projects lined up, so let's take a look at the list!

First off is Threadcakes. This is a competition hosted by Threadless. The idea is to pick a t-shirt design from their website and make a cake that looks like or embodies the idea behind the shirt.
My favorite is the Butterfly Fish, which is a graceful image of four Koi that stick their noses up to form an orange butterfly image. It would be a lot of fun to make, but I'm still working on the technical aspects of how best to construct it.



The next is this great play on words with "The Beetles" in a classic rock band image. My son likes this one a lot because of the big bugs. I'm not sure how to make this one 3-D but I'm willing to try.


The last is an image of "Music Business Remastered" that I know exactly how to put together. In some ways it's almost too easy, but I've always liked Escher so I'll give it a shot.

These bottom two are an example of a shirt and a cake that embodies that design -- way cool!
