PoesÃ*a's mother made a kitty litter cake last year for her daughter-in-law, and I have a co-worker who is the sweetest lady and a real cat lady. So today we celebrated her birthday and I made my very own kitty litter cake.

Yummmyyyyy

This actually sounded good when I asked to see a picture of it last night. Now that I've seen it all I can say is... Ewww!!!

 

[BigWaxJesus]

Yummy. Haha.

 

[RichBeBe]

It was not vegan so i did not eat it...But it got rave reviews

I had actually posted recipe for this a while back on a birthday thread for Thalia's cat Jessie:

You've got to serve it up with the pooper scooper, too! LOL

 

[Poesa]

He had the pooper scooper and the whole deal. It's really a funny cake to make. Leave it to you, YumHummus, to know about it! That's cool!

It was vegan up until the point that we added cool whip and didn't realize it had caesinate in it.

Rich took extra time molding the Tootsie Rolls just right. Isn't it wonderfully gross?

 

[Poesa]

Tootsie Rolls aren't vegan either, of course.

 

[Kreeli]

you could easily replace the tootsie rolls with rolls of vegan chocolate fudge (cook together equal amounts of peanut butter and maple syrup until thick and smooth, add cocoa powder, and arrowroot powder to thicken, then cool and roll into "turds").

there is one brand of generic whipped topping that my local grocery store sells that appears to be 100% vegan. i'll have to check the ingredients more thoroughly. anyway i think i'd like to try this recipe some time. it looks hilarious.

 

[GhostUser]

WOW! That's just...awesome and gross at the same time! I love it!

 

[GhostUser]

I had to laugh when I saw the pic! How creative!

 

[VeggieMonster]

I bet that cake would really confuse cats if you put it in front of them.. hehe

 

[Poesa]

Yeah, definitely not the cake you want to make for a kids party or formal dinner. Although, we could probably convert a lot of them from being candy addicts that way...

 

[Thalia]

And for those of you like me, who don't like to be wastful, when you are done with the cake, you can actually use the litter box and scoop for what they were meant for! (Just remeber once you have so you don't put another cake in there

)

 

[Poesa]

Now all I need is a kitty to go with my litter box!

(My bunny uses a different kind of box. And I really miss having a kitty.)

 

[GhostUser]

I've been wanting to make that everytime we have a bake sale or potluck at work.

 

[GhostUser]

Sorry Rich & Poesia, but for some reason this just made me wonder what kind of a cake you guys are planning on having for your wedding?

When I was in event planning, one of my favorite trends was the cupcake wedding cake, with serving tiers covered in individual cupcakes. (high quality of course)

Here are some examples:

Ron Ben Israel is my favorite cake designer because of his sugared flowers - simply breathtaking!

Utlimately, you could have a baker make 250 vegan cupcakes and decorate them with edible flowers.

Another advantage to having cupcakes it that it can ensure a moister cake, its easier for the caterer to serve, and it adds a nice touch for each guest to have their own individual cake.

Just a thought

 

[Poesa]

I really like those cupcake cakes. Reminds me of something we were given at a christening. I guess I should mention that this christening party was more extravagant than our wedding will ever be. But that's another story. Anyway, they had a "cake" that was made out of boxes shaped like cake slices and silver painted dry flowers were glued to the top of each one. They contained three very elegant chocolates and each guest got one to take home.

The Ron Ben Israel cakes. Oh yes, I have seen them and they're amazing. There's another person too in NYC who does cakes like that. Can't think of her name just now.

We'll probably go for a small cake and add on extra desserts for more selection. We went to Whole Earth Vegan Bakery a few weeks ago and got a few things and - blech! - nothing we got was good. We bake much tastier things at home. Which makes me nervous about getting a vegan wedding cake.

Mmm. Yummy.

I'll have to make that cat litter cake for my dog's Bday party. She'd gladly eat the real the real thing : P
