It's the holiday season, which means it's time for sweet treats! Today, we've got a host of World of Warcraft-themed cakes, including the delicious-looking Fish Feast cake pictured above baked by Chef Gyft of Aman'thul (US-A). With Cataclysm's release, the Fish Feast has sadly become obsolete for new level 85s, but this confectionery version -- created for a friend's birthday -- is suitable no matter what level you happen to be. Delicious!
What's a Cataclysm without a celebration -- and what's a celebration without cake? Russian fansite Noob Club recently held a cooking contest. "Participants had to cook a cake or pie with fansite symbols," reader Kermit explained. "More than 40 cakes were sent in for the final voting, some of them really gorgeous. The works that used Cataclysm as a theme got a lot of attention!" From murloc-themed cakes like the one pictured above to Deathwing, Noob Club certainly has a group of highly talented bakers. Thanks for the submission, Kermit!
Take a look at the gallery for more cakes courtesy of Noob Club -- and send in your Warcraft-themed cakes and confectionery delights! I'm tempted to go make some fudge ...

I love that the oranges around the Fish Feast cake are actually cut to look pixelated.

Oh I just noticed that!

I was thinking the exact same thing.

I hate to correct you, but it isn't pixelated, it's low-poly. Pixelated would mean it's blocky or fuzzy. Low-poly means it's not quite round.
It's an amazing detail anyway.

Beat me to it, Drakk. :)

+1 for your charming reference to a novel equal parts masterful and horrifying.

As soon as I saw the title of the OP, I knew this comment would be here. Haha

Speaking of Portal...have you seen the companion cube in Vash'Jir yet?

The little pink murloc is cute, but the cake he's on kind of terrifies me. What is going on there? Is it a melting ice cream cake? What is that... orange stuff?

"What is that.. orange stuff?"
It's lava, you silly goose.
Maribel Dec 10th 2010 12:37AM
That would explain the melting, I guess.

The alliance crest cakes are really well made, and that timberling cupcake looks delish!

This is highly appropriate given the latest Around Azeroth :D
You bloggers have obviously been mentally affected by Vashj'ir...
