I think that it is quite useless making these beautiful cakes unless you preserve it because no one will want to destroy it. :P

I guess if the person is able to make the design on cake, there wont be an issue to make it using clay as well.

That would be awesome. If books and food were combined in real life.

I collect beautiful cake photographs to send on their birthdays to relatives and friends, and as a follower of any TV reality that shows all kinds of ephemeral art, this is the most beaiful cake I have seen until today

Anybody else want to clean the book off so it can be read? It looks so real that that's exactly what I want to do!

The attention to detail seems impossible. Thus baker's brain needs to be studied after they pass, of course! Unfuckingbelievable

I would love to present this one to a friend of mine that lost her baby on the baby's birthday. I always remember to send her mother's day cards and birthday cards on her baby's birthday and she has told me how much that means to her. So I've done it for close to 10 years now and she still loves having her status as a mother acknowledged (she has no other kids) and her baby remembered.
