Top 30 Video Game Cakes
How anyone could ever choose only 10, I will never know. And I’m sure there are tons I didn’t even come across that deserved a spot here, so send the video game cakes my way and I’ll edit them in…or do a follow-up. There are just too many good ones.
2. Pacman Arcade
3. Mario and Princess Peach wedding cake 
4. Nintendo Controller – I have a special appreciation for cakes that do NOT use fondant. Yes, they’re amazing, but I also think it takes a special knack to work with liquidy icing and craft magnificent cakes freehand like my mom does.
5. Nintendo DS – Icing instead of fondant again. After checking with some other gamers, the conclusion is that the game is Rune Factory….or Legend of Zelda. Anybody who has played either on DS that can confirm?
6. Blue Yoshi – She explains that the picture on the left is what she printed off, but her 8 year old wanted it blue, so she colored in the picture on the right co copy.
7. Tetris
10. Angry Birds – I’m sick of Angry Birds stuff, but this one is just awesome. It’s a cake based on a t-shirt based on video game. ;)
11. Playable Angry Birds – And really, sick of Angry Birds or not, there’s no way this could be excluded considering you can actually -play- the game on the cake. Too cool.
12. Starcraft
13. Starcraft
15. Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (Caker? :p)
16. Mario chess board – I bet this took quite a while to sculpt each little figure
17. Q*bert
18. Bioshock
19. Skyrim
20. LEGO Batman
21. Playstation 3 game console with controller, Blackberry phone, and a spilled Pepsi can
22. NES video game console featuring characters Mario, Megaman, Princess Peach, Link from Zelda, Luigi, and I believe Donkey Kong bursting through the butter knife flap (That’s what it was for, right? Flip it up to change the game and then stick a knife in to hold it tight?)
23. Left 4 Dead
24. Ms. Pacman
25. Mario – Previously featured here, but doesn’t make it any less awesome
26. Epic Minecraft grass/dirt cube – In case you were wondering, that’s a 6" x 6" square choc mud cake and 1025 little squares. Yes, that many.
29. World of Warcraft Deathwing
Also, I looked for a good Pokemon cake and none of them really blew my mind like I was hoping. A couple of the Snorlax were pretty close from here, but links are broken.
Fun Easter foods – Deviled eggs, orange baskets, bunny bread

(The sailboats are fruit leather, by the way…awesome)
(I originally saved this one last year because I wanted to make my own. Fast forward and I obviously haven’t so please look at her awesomeness instead).
How to eat on the go with kids – Fast food bento boxes?
You know how it is eating fast food on the go. Sure, cars usually have a drink holder, but what about for the rest?
If your kid can barely keep food on his/her plate when sitting still at a kitchen table, how can you expect them to juggle a burger, fries, sauces, and getting a drink every so often on a tiny uneven lap in a moving vehicle? You can’t.
Lookie What I Did got this little basket for a buck at a dollar store and I’m sure we’ve all seen them for art or craft supplies….or they’re synonymous with showering in college dorm rooms considering you have to carry your own toiletries back and forth.
Why not keep a couple of these organizers in the car to make chowing down on the go even easier, too? Nobody likes cleaning up ketchup off the backseat, after all. I can’t help you prevent the splatterings on the roof, though….not that I’ve ever had to deal with those exploding ketchup packets in the backseat before or anything…
