What a great way to introduce someone to the wonderful world of chess with the delicious Chess Board Cake by DahliaCakes. Although you may not be a big fan of this old strategic game, how can anyone not want a piece of this cake? Decorated beautifully with animal [chess pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mohmaya) and a glittery [chess board](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rollup-chess-board), the entire confection is quite tempting.

However, if you love this game, then how satisfying would it be to finally literally be able to eat a chess piece?
