Flush It

Toilet Cake

For a 60th Birthday Party...and she's still my friend!!! Her daughter wanted this cake so I agreed reluctantly to make it. I had no instructions but only a picture...so I did my version. You might not want to eat this but it was the hit of the party. We changed the message to a more positive one..."Flush the Crap and Enjoy the Sweet Things in Life"!
The tank of the toilet is made with three long loaf pans and the cake was made from vanilla mix, marble mix, and chocolate mix. The bottom loaf was cut in a few inches to make the tank more prominent. The toilet seat was made from a rounded bottom cake pan and is supported by a half loaf. The interior of the round cake was removed just enough to allow for the 'water' line inside. Fluffy white frosting covered it all and then fondant covered the tank and toilet seat. Edible gel was used inside the toilet and fondant was used to shape the 'ugh'. The plunger was made as a small round cake and colored fondant covered it. The floor is made from iced graham crackers. The only thing not edible is the stick that is in the plunger. It's not a cake I would ever make again! But, someone might want to try it.
