A coworker had a birthday and it was my turn to bring the cake. I didn't want to do a cake with flowers for a couple of reasons. The first being that this cake was for a male coworker, and although he would not have complained, flowers just aren't really him. The second reason - I had only recently finished my cake decorating class (alright, well it had been a few weeks) and I was not ready to start making more flowers again.
I came across pictures of a cake that looked like a burger on pinterest and decided to give it a go. It is a white cake with chocolate frosting (darker for the burger, less coco for the bun), and regular buttercream frosting for the ketchup and cheese. The lettuce was made using rolled fondant. The sesame seeds on the bun are large sprinkles.
Everyone at work loved the cake which was great. I had lot of fun making it and it was nice to make something less girly than I had been making for the last few months.
