Fake Cake, originally uploaded by craftybeaver.

So you want to look like you work like a pro and bake on your off-time like some 50s housewife? Hows about getting yourself (or making yourself) a FAKE CAKE? Just requires styrofoam, spackle and plaster (Sedaris’ “recipe”).

Anyone who tries to lick this though is in for a rude awakening, but it’s oh so lovely looking!
