Ketchup and Mustard Cake Is The Condiment Combo That Nobody Asked For

Ketchup is wonderful. Mustard, when used correctly, can be even better. As of now, the two condiments managed to coexist, doing their own thing. That was until they were merged into a cake.

Ketchup and Mustard Cake is the unfortunate joining of two condiments, that may or may not haunt your dreams. Brought to us by Shared Food, the baking experiment uses actual ketchup and mustard. The result… something that looks like a cross between a high school archaeology project, and a birthday cake from McDonald’s.

Watch the “how to” below, if you dare. Let us know how far you get.

The CMYK Cake Is Print-Friendly

If you’ve ever had to replace a printer’s ink cartridges, then you know that almost everything is printed using a combination or four colors — cyan, magenta, yellow and black.

What you may not realize is that most colors can be achieved with only C, M and Y — even black, according to students Arnold Bakshayev and Alona Massasa.

To reinforce this point, they’ve created CMY is The New Black — a print ad consisting of a CMYK cake that uses no black. Although some designers, this one included, would argue that a true black cannot be achieved with only three cartridges, the cake does look pretty awesome. Either way, you’ll still need to have black ink at all times, or your printer won’t work anyway.

The Stormtrooper Helmet Cake Isn’t Short on Flavor

Imperial Stormtroopers may have had a hard time seeing through their helmets — evidenced by their shooting — but the head-protectors do make for a pretty cake.

The Stormtrooper Helmet Cake is brought to us by Yolanda Gampp from How To Cake It. The inside is chocolate, possibly cloned from another cake, with a white fondant shell. May the fork be with you.
