I've done one of these before, and my daughter wanted to take one to school as part of her english class project (translating a recipe - english as 2nd language since we're French Canadians).

I give you ... MEATCAKE!

You're the sicko, I was talking about a cake being made out of meat. Gross.

*lamely trying to get this thread back on its rails...

So it turned out pretty good I think.

We had originally wanted to decorate it with Meatwad's likeness, but that turned out to be harder than expected as there was no time to whip up a darker glaze for the outlines.

I know she snapped a couple of shots with her digicam, so I'll try to add a link here later.

The hardest part of all this was *not* eating it.

That would be her English class buddies.

Everyone who chose that project was bringing in the results of the translated recipes.

But now... I shall have to make another.

Better.

Bigger.

Meatier.

Oh maybe make some smaller meatballs for garnishing... if you make the potatos with some kind of gravy in it to darken it, and then add shredded veggies it could look like a german chocolate cake...

I can totally see simulated German Chocolate cake frosting made of broth gravy, ground beef crumbles and some shredded carrot to simulate the coconut.

Status report from daughter just now via GTalk:

- Coming out of the bus to school this morning, had a following accompany her into building. Repeated requests for "a taste".
- When meatcake was prepared for class, English teacher kept complimenting it. Invited History class teacher over, since he was drooling, which he did.
- On way to class, with meatcake, school principal mentioned she liked the aroma, was invited but too busy to come over for a taste. Students accompanying principal tried to sneak away to follow daughter up staircase.
- Almost everyone in class had a (small) slice. some classmates took pictures.
- English teacher complimented presentation, originality, etc.
- Meatcake entirely consumed.
- Daughter happy. Says "Happiest day of her life"
- Stalemate racks up mucho "daddy points".

For anyone trying this, I highly recommend the boxed mashed potato mixes, unless you're really good at whipping it up yourself to a lumpless perfection.

Wow...congrats and wow on such a great job. I will have to try this some time. I liked the (parsley) leaves on the first one.
