Hollow Knight Cake
In keeping with our Hollow Knight Halloween costumes, Sam wanted a Hollow Knight cake for his birthday this year.
For reference, this is the image, from Hollow Knight: Voidheart Edition, on which the cake is based
The back is fondant over foam core, painted with food coloring. The rocks on the base are fondant as well, which is good because Sam loves eating fondant and enjoyed eating the rocks as much he enjoyed the actual cake. The cape is wafer paper, coated with gelatin, and the sword is gum paste.
The body, the horns, and the soul totems in the background are made of rice cereal treats covered in fondant.
The soul totems were not in the image the cake is based on, but Sam seemed to think they were important. The one on the left is full of soul energy, hence the little white bits.
The one on the right has been corrupted, hence the Void tendrils. All the Void tendrils are made of gelatin.
The Knight’s head and the thing he’s standing on are made of cake, which is much more cake than we needed for the five people living in this house.
We did Zoom the grandparents in to the party, but unfortunately, they couldn’t help us eat the cake.
