Ponyo Cake = 本当にすばらしい!

This is the most BOSS birthday cake in the world!!

My talented husband put his Warhammer miniature painting and figure sculpting skills to good use and helped me do the house and road. I am so married to the right guy, haha. The rocks are chocolate candy rocks which I literally had to beg a cake shop to sell to me. The car and Ponyo figurine are actually bath toys from Japan, and the rest are sculpted from sugar gum paste. The base cake is a very rich Valrhona dark chocolate and coffee buttermilk cake (my ‘go to’recipe for chocolate cakes!), with chocolate fudge icing. And oh, the green flock is dessicated coconut!
