After an amount of setbacks to drive me into frustration I am halfway there with the balcake and should hopefully have it done by tonight (andwhyisit/XristosX time)

Lessons I have learned:
1. Do not use normal icing on mudcake (mudcake soaks it up)
2. Do not spread crumbs into the icing while attepting to ice the cake (chocolate cake this time)
3. Do not attempt to layer colours of soft icing using makeshift stencils, use hard icing instead.
4. Do not leave the cake out until the icing goes soft before using the stencils (stencils are cut-out balrog images after being laminated, one per colour)
5. Do not put the food colouring directly into the icing
6. You can never have too much icing sugar
7. How easy it is to screw up everything
8. How awesome this cake will look if I get it right (I am a perfectionist :o)

This was really meant to be my birthday cake but if you look at the list you will see why not.

To XristosX: 60 posts until you get your 1337th post, keep an eye out (not literally keeping your eye out since that would freak out a few people).

Put some sulphur oxide inside the microwave, record it, and post it on YouTube. Your microwave door will blast off.

Yes. People on Brainiac have exploded microwaves many times.

Stuntmen also survive jumps out of windows and car crashs, but this isn't a proof you can copy it without getting harmed.

You said nothing about turning the microwave on. :o Sorry but I like the microwave at my house, it is better than most other microwaves out there in my opinion.

EDIT:

Balcake!!! :D

I messed up the grey icing and the right band a little but it still looks awesome.

Across the friggin' ocean? It won't survive ya know.

Instructions on how to make the stencil thingies:
1. Download this image.
2. Print 4 copies of the image with "fit to page" or whatever it is called.
3. Laminate 3 of those printouts.
4. On the first laminated printout I cut out the sections of brown with a stanley knife, then the white on the second and black on the third.
cutbrown.gif
cutwhite.gif
cutblack.gif


Instructions on how to make the cake:
1. Create a standard chocolate cake base to the size of the stencil (laminated printout) and wait a day for that to set.
2. Ice it with grey icing, use black food colouring for this. Try to stopper the food colouring container with you finger in order to get some on the tip of your finger and trail it into the icing and continue this till you have the right colour. The icing is just made with icing sugar and water, and should be thick (to the point where it doesn't run onn the cake but still touches the sides of the bowl). Be careful not to spread crumbs into the icing. Put in the fridge and wait half a day or so until it sets.
3. Place the 1st stencil (the one with brown cut out) onto the cake and use cocoa instead of food colouring to get the colour for the icing and put it over the stencil, wait 2 seconds and remove the stencil, if the icing does not run then you have done a good job with the thickness of the icing and should put it in the fridge again and wait while it sets. If bits of the grey icing stick to the stencil then you have not given the grey icing enough time to set or have left it out of the fridge for too long.
4. Repeat step 3 for the white icing (no food colouring) and the black icing (black food colouring).

Instructions for chocolate cake base:
185g butter
3/4 cup castor sugar
3 eggs
1 cup self-raising flour
1/2 cup plain flour
1/3 cup cocoa
1/2 cup milk

Combine all ingredients together and beat for 3 min or until white. Cook the stuff in a tray (grease the tray or put that paper stuff on the bottom, either way works) in an oven at 180 degrees, if the cake cracks at the top then reduce to 170 or 160. The cake is ready when you can poke one of those kebab sticks into the cake without getting cake mixture on it.
Note: It is recommended that you use a double batch.
