Twisted Cakes: Deliciously Evil Designs for Every Occasion - Tapa blanda

The 20 wacky wonders include stabbed cupcakes, eyeball mini cakes, a Venus fly trap plant, a roach motel, a maggoty candy bar, Siamese pigs and a rack of lamb cake. There are cakes for Halloween that could have come straight from a fairground haunted house - a tombstone, a creepy clown or a severed arm. Other occasions are catered for, too. A can of worms would be perfect for a fisherman's birthday, while a graffiti-inspired cake will delight fans of street art. Prefer pretty with a twist? Then choose a Mexican Day of the Dead skull cake or a pinned butterfly. You can bring out your inner sadist with a kidnapped and bound Terrified Teddy or a mouse in a trap. There's even an alternative wedding cake with a heart tattoo theme and a frosty split cake to mark a break-up.
