Amazing Theme Cakes

Art, Featured — By on May 26, 2012 12:00 am

Trolling around the internet, like you do, I have come across some pretty darn fantastic-looking cakes.  I have no idea what tastes good, as I didn’t get to taste any of these cakes.  Plus, I’m not much of a cake eater.  But here are the cakes that particularly struck my fancy.  We’ve got geek cred out the wazoo, here, Folks.  I’ll split them up into sections for you:

The Star Wars Cakes

Like we could have a post on fancy cakes without showing the Star Wars cakes?  Sheesh.  What kind of website do you think this is?

AT-AT Cake

ATAT Cake

The detail on this cake is fantastic.  In case you’ve been living under a rock that’s under a sheet of moss which is under a big lake somewhere and you HAVEN’T seen the Star Wars movies, this is at AT-AT – an All Terrain Armored Transport “walker.”  They can carry up forty storm troopers.  Not the cake, though.  I’m sure it just carries deliciousness.

Darth Vader Cake

Darth Vadar Cake

Just in case you ever wanted to eat Darth Vader’s face off.  Hey, I don’t judge you.

Jabba & Slave Leia Cake

Jabba and Leia Cake

I’m sure that it’s not disconcerting at all for a four-year-old to eat a cake depiction of a slave Leia in a cake metal bikini.  At least we can be pretty sure that the Jabba part of the cake is not actually Jabba-flavored, which I imagine tastes a lot like earwax.  Or frog.  He eats a lot of frogs.

Millennium Falcon Cake

Millenium Falcon Cake
I’m sure that cake version of the Millennium Falcon smells a lot better than the ACTUAL Millennium Falcon, which I image smells like damp Wookie and a burned-out Hyper Drive.  It doesn’t, however, come with a young Harrison Ford, so I’ll pass.

R2-D2 Cake

R2D2 Cake

This is way too cute to eat.

Yoda Cake

Yoda Cake
Eat this Star Wars cake, you will, and talk like Yoda, you will.  Smarter you will be, but more inscrutable too.

Superhero Cakes

This was originally going to be the whole post, but then I found the Star Wars cakes, and a bunch of other cakes, and…there you go.

Speed Racer Cake

Speed Racer Car Cake

Go Speed Caker!

Captain America Cake

Captain America Shield Cake

What do you say about Captain America?

Batman Cake

Batman Bust Cake

To the Bat Cake!

Spider-Man Cake

Spiderman Flat Cake

It’s very possible that Carvel made this cake.  Who am I to judge?  If it’s an ice cream cake, I will make an exception and eat it.

Alien Symbiote Spider-Man Cake

Spider Man Three Cake
I’m sure all that webbing and creeping black stuff gets stuck in your teeth.

Venom Cake

Venom Cake

Venom.  How cool is that?  Too cool to eat, that’s for sure.  Also, cool enough to make it into the Superhero Cake Section even though he’s a villain.  That, and there weren’t a whole lot of other villain cakes I tried to find.

Wolverine Claws Cake

Wolverine Hand Cake

Wolverine’s hand bursting through a cake….

Wolverine Cage Match Cake

Wolverine Cake

Is more effective than a caked-up version of Wolverine.  Creepy.

TV, Book, and Movie Cakes

Here are a few cool ones from our favorite movies, TV shows, and books.

Aliens Chestburster Cake

Alien Cake

However cool this may be, you could not pay me to eat any of it.  Who wants themselves depicted as wormy alien creatures?  Not this guy.  The cake, however?  It’s full of a great amount of badassery.

Discworld Cake

Discworld Cake

Discworld.  Look it up.

Dr. Who Tardis Cake

Dr. Who Cake
Dr. Who.  Geek cred, what?

Harry Potter Cake

Harry Potter Hogwarts Cake

Too pretty to eat.  Hogwarts from one of those cake shows on TV.

Transformers Cake

Optimus Prime Cake

Optimus Prime by one of those awesome cake dudes.  Would be a shame to eat it, I think.

Video Game Cakes

Now is the time where we show how geeky we really are.

Atari 2600 Cake

Atari Joystick Cake

And the kids ask, “What’s that?”

Guitar Hero Cake

Guitar Hero Cake
Oh my geek.

Pac Man Cake

Pac Man Cupcake Cake

Cute idea.  These are cupcakes.  But again, the kids say, “what’s that?”

The Princess & Mario Wedding Cake

Super Mario Cake
And the geekiest is also the coolest, most beautimus…I think I just cried a little.

Random Awesomeness

These don’t fit into one of the above categories, but they are awesome nonetheless.

Crab Cake (snicker)

Crab Cake

Why make a cake that looks like a crab?  Who cares when it turns out this great?

D&D Cake

D & D Cake

Ahem.

Red Dragon Cake

Dragon Cake

A variation on the theme.  But ever so much cooler.

Heineken Beer Cake
Heineken Bottle Cap Cake

Hope it’s not beer-flavored!

iPhone Cake
iPhone Cake

Why not?

Rubick’s Cube Cake

Rubiks Cube Cake

It just makes me wonder what type of event this was for.  I hope it was for a wedding.

Guinness Beer Cake
St Patricks Day Cake

I love that I’m Irish.  This is beautiful.

And last, but not nearly least:

Octopus Cake

Squid Cake

It’s got bits of real squid in it, so you know it’s good.  Just kidding.  But whoa, right?

Have more cakes?  Send them my way!
