We have featured a few different Angry Bird cakes here on Geeky Gadgets but never one that could actually be played. The playable Angry Bird cake was created for a lucky 6-year-old birthday boy by his Dad.
Using a catapult down one end of the cake, you can fire iced edible birds at the pigs and chocolate towers. Watch the video after the jump to see the gaming Angry Bird cake in action.
The Creation Process
The Angry Birds game-inspired cake took around ten hours to create and build and then was rapidly destroyed in around 2 minutes.. good going! The cake’s intricate design involved meticulous planning and execution. The father, who is evidently skilled in both baking and engineering, used various edible materials to replicate the iconic elements of the game. The birds were crafted from fondant and icing, while the pigs and towers were made from chocolate and other confectioneries. The catapult mechanism was carefully constructed to ensure it was both functional and safe for children to use.
The cake not only looked impressive but also provided an interactive experience for the children at the party. The excitement of launching the birds and watching them knock down the chocolate towers added an extra layer of fun to the celebration. This unique approach to a birthday cake demonstrates the endless possibilities of combining creativity with culinary skills.
Interactive Cakes: A Growing Trend
Interactive cakes like this Angry Birds cake are becoming increasingly popular for special occasions. These cakes go beyond traditional designs by incorporating elements that engage the guests, making the event more memorable. For instance, some bakers have created cakes with hidden compartments that reveal surprises when cut, while others have designed cakes with moving parts or light-up features.
The trend of interactive cakes is not limited to children’s parties. Weddings, anniversaries, and corporate events are also seeing a rise in demand for cakes that offer a unique experience. These cakes often reflect the theme of the event or the interests of the guests, adding a personal touch that standard cakes cannot provide.
Creating an interactive cake requires a combination of baking skills, artistic talent, and sometimes even engineering knowledge. Bakers must carefully plan the design and construction to ensure that the cake is both visually appealing and functional. This often involves experimenting with different materials and techniques to achieve the desired effect.
The success of the playable Angry Birds cake highlights the potential for innovation in the world of cake design. As more people seek out unique and engaging experiences for their celebrations, we can expect to see even more creative and interactive cakes in the future.
