Cupcakes are getting their revenge! After being banished for so long to the land of the pretty and identical, the domestic and the twee, cupcakes are biting back. Here, Lily Vanilli shows how you can take inspiration from anywhere insects, roadkill, zombies and recreate it in cake, but always with a delicious result. This book is an introduction to making cakes that look weird, ugly and even grotesque but that taste divine! There are amazing materials for making edible sculptures and hundreds of things you can do with natural ingredients. Give guests a shock with revoltingly realistic Marzipan Beetles, or add a crunch to your desserts with Morbid Meringue Bones, dipped in raspberry blood sauce. Try out a Black Cherry Blood and Guts red velvet cupcake with cream cheese, or eat your way through heavenly Fallen Angel Cakes, via Forbidden Fruit Cake and an indulgent and truly dark chocolate Devils Food Cake. If Ozzy Osbourne made cupcakes, these are the ones hed want to eat.
