Edible Architecture 2

Top :: The model cake being completed

Middle :: The cake compared to the model.  Exactly 1:1000!!

Bottom :: The best part…eating the cake!

 

Since there is not much going on today I thought I would fill the void with a little story of human interest.

Last Friday was my project manager’s last day in the office.  To celebrate his departure he bought himself a cake…in the shape of our project.  Solid bars of chocolate stacked in a hexagonal pattern floating over a landscape of rich butter icing.  Ever the minimalist, the icing bore no words, no salutations or celebratory remarks, but rather was engraved with the regulating geometry of our project: the hexagonal grid.
