August 18, 2012 - Albino Pythons

These two albino pythons happened upon my screen in close succession which made me think they wanted to be posted. After three tries (and umpteen billion interruptions from three pre-teens anxious about starting school in a little over a week) at posting this I was beginning to think they didn't want to be posted!

Here goes:

90in9 brings us this great image:

Now for the punchline:

The first image from 90in9 is really a BIRTHDAY CAKE!

According to The Daily Mail, this Burmese Python confection was baked by a Brit whose 6-year-old wanted an extra scary cake for her birthday. It doesn’t say exactly how she did it, though she used white chocolate fondant for the “skin”.

All in all, I think this one was worth the wait . . .

Very well done.

The cake possibly looked better than it tasted - that's a pretty dense sponge.
Can't fault the decoration though, stunning.

That is an awesome little girl.

Might be a white chocolate mud cake I suspect. All that icing would just collapse a sponge anyway, don't you think?

So awesome though. That'll bring me back down to reality next time I start thinking I'm a cake boss. lol

The head alone is a masterpiece!

So that's White Snake?
