Wishing you an Absol-utely wonderful Valentine's Day! 🖤
This black cocoa lambeth cake was a fun challenge, especially making Absol out of icing and in 3D!
I've been enjoying planning out what Pokemon dessert we'll make on our live Twitch streams in advance, and when one chatter suggested an Absol Valentine's cake, I was sold! Plus Shiny Absol has the perfect colour scheme, and the Mega has those cupid wings, so what could be better?🪽🪽
This is also my first Valentine's Day with Miss_Editor as wife and wife, so I had to do my buff goth wife justuce! (She also helped decide on and write the text!)
Now if only I wasn't sick on Valentine's Day 🥲
Here's the black cocoa cake recipe and the black cocoa icing recipe, though the latter gave me some trouble.
I've never been big on celebrating Valentines Day, maybe it's because it never looked spooky 👻.
It was always shades of pastel, way too much pink for me 😅. Cutsie phrases and honestly, it would be nice to celebrate love in a way that expresses myself as well.
To me Valentines Day has never been solely for romantic love. It's also for friendship, family, a wonderful time to do a good deed for a stranger.
It’s funny to think that passers-by must be like “wow they’re REALLY into Valentine’s Day” when actually we just love themed lighting and an excuse to make our house look like a neon skeleton bordello. Happy Valentine’s Day!
