Cut-Up Cakes – an old cookbook that shows women how to turn ordinary sheet cakes into dyed coconut monstrosities. It’s like baking a tangram. Who wants to eat a swan? And “Fanny the Fish” is just wrong in any culture…

My mom used to make the bunny (I can’t believe they didn’t have a picture of that one!) for my sister’s April birthday when she was a kid, and her boyfriend make her one for her 30th birthday last spring. I’ve got to make Torie the Turtle some time soon. 🙂
i don’t know, kris, i kinda like it. same on the bunny. maybe we should get back to our cake-y roots.
I just think that it’s hilarious that the whole point of the book is to sell dessicated coconut. That stuff is nast!
Well, when you say it like that it sounds gross, but when it’s on a cute bunny with a gum drop nose it’s yummy.
