Comical Unicorn Cakes

This Unicorn Cake Design is Incredibly Realistic and Lifelike

— September 18, 2014 — Lifestyle
Baker extraordinaire Natalie Sideserf creates this unicorn cake design that is sculpted to look like a real mythical horse. The cake has an unusually placed rainbow beside the horse's rear-end that makes it look as though the unicorn has rainbow gas.

Sideserf created an edible unicorn entirely out of cake decorated with icing and sugar. The cake has been sculpted to replicate the body of a large horse complete with a realistic mane, eyes and hooves. The horse's mane is topped with an golden horn that is covered with edible sparkle decorations. Because of the unicorn's seated position and the unfortunate location of the rainbow and cloud decoration it really does look like this unicorn cake has chromatic gas. Perhaps if you know someone that loves unicorns this comical cake design would be a great dessert to attempt to replicate for their birthday.
Trend Themes
1. Realistic Cake Sculptures - Advancements in edible sculpting techniques are creating new possibilities for hyper-realistic cake designs that push the boundaries of what is possible in cake making.
2. Creative Cake Decorations - Innovative use of decorations and flavors are elevating the art of cake-making to new heights, allowing bakers to truly express their creativity.
3. Humorous Cake Designs - Whimsical and funny cake designs are gaining popularity and becoming a way for bakers to differentiate themselves in a crowded market.
Industry Implications
1. Bakery and Confectionery - Bakers and confectioners that embrace the latest trends in realistic cake sculptures and creative decorations will be better positioned to stand out in a crowded market.
2. Events and Celebrations - Party planners and event organizers can leverage humorous and creative cake designs as a way to add to the fun and excitement of celebrations.
3. Hospitality and Tourism - Hotels and resorts can adopt realistic cake sculptures as an attraction and use them in creative ways to wow guests and create memorable experiences.
