melman92 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Oh yes, we are very educational here Yes, you better! Okay, so I got impatient and tried to take it out of the tin. Too soon. But it fits together like a jigsaw and you can't tell the difference! Except for like .. when you cut into it The colour is really something quite spectacular, and the camera flash is kind of washing it out. I'll take some pictures of it in the daylight tomorrow And it tastes good! I bet you are :naugty: It didn't work I'm wondering why I love the little story behind the pics Now it makes me think of those photos you see in your science book with different layers corresponding to a rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I can't say I was going for the "deadly disease" look, but I seem to have done quite well! Yeah! I used this recipe for the actual cake: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Simple-White-Cake/Detail.aspx (But you can use any recipe I guess, and this one worked out quite badly actually) And this technique: OD : http://www.bestrecipes.com.au/recipe/Marble-Cake-L1930.html or http://auntyyochana.blogspot.com/2007/04/marble-cake.html Divide mixture evenly between three bowls. Tint mixture pink in one bowl and mix well. Stir sifted cocoa and extra milk into another bowl and mix well. Drop spoonfuls of each mixture into prepared pan and run a knife through cake mixture for a marbled effect. I wanted it to look like this: http://lilyng2000.blogspot.com/2006/06/rainbow-cake.html But I didn't have the right food dye Looks like it's all there ever is Isn't that a good thing?

silver Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 The Bishop is coming to my school tomorrow to bless the new locker bays, classrooms and toilets! And what happens if they're not blessed? Does it turn into "The School From Hell" Do demonic hands reach out from the sinks and toilets? Do exercise books disappear into the lockers never to be seen again? Do the teachers turn into zombies? Oh no - that's normal school:naughty: Lucky me, I grew up with all the principles a hooker should have. That's none then I love tree frogs What the heck is that! Looks like a peccary to me, but definitely a member of the pig family Its a maderia cake... they add food dye and flavouring, and swirl it all around so that is marbled... I love it. I love Madeira cake, but especially marbled with chocolate (cocoa powder) Well my cake is in the cooky-thing now. We didn't have any red so I did green, blue, yellow and chocolate. No major mishaps except for tipping over a scale full of sugar and accidentally using self raising flour and baking soda instead of plain flour and baking soda. Wish me luck! Self raising flour and baking soda - lucky it didn't rise too high to come out of the oven It's incredible how many animals I learned about in the Australian thread After the mallee fowl...the coati! Its full name is a coatimundi it might be the fractal cake as well I bet you could do a fractal pattern with icing. That could be quite interesting.

I'll take some pictures of it in the daylight tomorrow And it tastes good! OKD - words fail me. I have never seen a cake like this before. There are not many cakes where you have to put on sunglasses before you cut it. God knows what it really looks like if this is washed out. It's certainly ...er ... colourful. I think you're only supposed to add a few drops of colouring, not the whole bottle. But 10/10 for effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artsyfartsy17 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Geez, you're such a good uni student! I remember sitting and watching Oprah and Dr Phil on my days off from uni... and when I lieved with my ex I used to watch Maury... I don't do that anymore of course... I watch Ellen. Hahaha. I just put it on one channel and watch that one all night while posting on MFC. Last night was the AMC channel. Mad Men, Breaking Bad, BLues Brothers 2000 and a 1968 movie, Coogan's Bluff. Mmmm....young Clint Eastwood. OD : http://www.bestrecipes.com.au/recipe/Marble-Cake-L1930.html or http://auntyyochana.blogspot.com/2007/04/marble-cake.html Arts It's amazing. And woolworths sound more stupid... who cares if the what the wool is worth :hmph: Safeway has the word safe in it... Because Google wouldn't answer me on this one! Well my cake is in the cooky-thing now. We didn't have any red so I did green, blue, yellow and chocolate. No major mishaps except for tipping over a scale full of sugar and accidentally using self raising flour and baking soda instead of plain flour and baking soda. Wish me luck! *waits to hear explosion from a different continent* I noticed something...no icing or frosting on any of those cakes. Is that an aussie thing or were they just too lazy to put any on?

Sweet Knees Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Does he bite himself? And I assume by medication she means ADHD drugs... No he scratches himself but only bites me and his siblings. They mentioned Respiridol, I have no idea, I have never considered it before, and will do loads of research and try some other ideas first, but we definitely need to do something to improve this.
