Cut yourself a wedge for dessert or SNACK on a Nucleus, Lyosome, or some Chromatin! This is a cake made to look like an animal cell. I made it because it was a science project, but I thought it would be a good instructable.
Animal cakes are mostly for kid’s birthday parties but they can be made appropriate for all sorts of occasions. There’s a huge trend for cakes to be made of tiered structures decorated with lots of really cute fondant animals, but for my selection of animal cakes I’ve ignored those. No skills in fondant modeling required here. Teddy Bear Cake!
If you chose to bake a nucleus cupcake, you’d also need to prepare a small amount of frosting dyed a third color. You can use many tools to frost your animal cell cake, but I recommend using an actual frosting palette knife if you want a smooth, professional look.
Animal Cell Cake Materials: Note: You can use any candy you want to designate different organelles. These are just the candies that worked well for us. Round cake, frosted with plain white icing. Yellow icing (cytoplasm) Red Vines (cell wall) Pull ‘n’ Peel Twizzlers, orange (golgi complex) Pull ‘n’ Peel Twizzlers, red (endoplasmic reticula)
