Grenadenhaver...




This cake was a lot of fun to make. This HALO 2 inspired cake for a good friend attempts to capture the essence of his playing style. Without fail, before death each time, old Grenadenhaver never fails to launch a grenade, typically taking out his enemies... This was a chocolate cake with buttercream icing. I used a grater to make the cake crumbs and then dried them in the oven to make them appear more like dirt. The grenade is hand made out of fondant. I really love this cake! Also, I got a piece of this one, which doesn't happen too often!
