The Cake is a LIE!!!

May 15th, 2008

If you don’t know what this is, then shame on you!  Go buy Portal! At the end of the game you win a cake like this
portal cake

Anywhoo… This guy here, my BFF Alex, made a Portal cake and it is yum.

And since the cake is a lie, it only made sense to make a picture to illustrate that fact.
The cake is a lie! (Alex)

It would be sad if I didn’t get any cake in the end, but I did and it is DELICOUS BEYOND BELIEF.  Well, the cake is pretty tasty at least.

    Yes, actually. I did it my last two years of high school. http://mypieceoftheinter.net/archives/380

    What affiliation do you have with Botball?

    I’ve also been doing it the last 2 years and plan to again this year. I work with the Lockheed Martin teams in the greater DC area.

    Ben, the cake is a lie.

    heh, but seriously, I got that effect by taking two pictures (one with the cake, one without the cake) with the camera on a tripod to make sure that both pictures overlayed perfectly. I overlayed on picture on top of the other in Paint.NET, and removed half of the top-most picture.

    As for the recepe, here it is: http://www.recipezaar.com/264919 My friend, who baked the cake, modified it a bit when he made his. (He actually shaved that chocolate by hand!)

    I laughed so hard When I saw this, not only for the cake but then I read your shirt and thought oh no, he’s a BYU student…..

    I was looking up the pic of the portal cake when me and my husband were shopping for stuff for my bday, so I connect to this pic on two levels. First portal is awesome, Two, being LDS rocks.
