Wax anatomy-model cake

Conjurer’s Kitchen created this anatomical wax-model cake for the mad bakers at Eat Your Heart Out. Delicious and educational!

Anatomical Wax Model Cake

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    When I was but a grotty little teenager my brother made me a cake in the shape of Mr Hanky. Despite the fact the cake was delicious, not many people at the party wanted to eat a cake shaped like a giant turd, no matter how much singing and dancing joy he brought at Christmas time!

That cake cries out for anatomically-correct heart art.

I am sad they are very far away from me…
But they have many more anatomical cakes in their repertoire.

The original wax models are fascinating things.
