A co-worker of mine has a daughter who just turned 19. She is into the dark vampire sub-culture and for her birthday party, she wanted to have a vampire theme, fangs and all.
Sachin and I decided to go for a red velvet cake. What could be better for a vampire fiend than to slice into a cake and have the insides be blood red? The icing is a chocolate hazelnut.
It's decorated with white fondant and black scrolls. I also added black flowers with silver balls and black sugar highlights.
This is a before the party picture... along with the cake went a bottle of fake blood, made from corn syrup and red food dye (Thanks to the movie Scream, I figured out how to make it look real!) to be splashed onto the cake during the party.
We don't have those pictures yet, but as soon as we get them, we'll put them up!
