OK I really didn't, but there was A LOT of LABOR involved!!! Meet JIMMY, a middle-aged parrot wearing a Georgia Bulldog's jersey. I'm pretty much in LOVE with him...... O' how I hated to see him go.
I'm not sure how someone could fall in love with cake, but this cake has personality,charm,a good sense of humor....even good looks!!! (I think I just described my husband ;o)
Any-Who I'm gonna show ya'll the 4 stages of my Sweet Jimmy.........
This is Jimmy when he was.......well a lump of cake, super yummy lump of chocolate pound cake and chocolate ganache....
What is this???? a mummy,an urn.....poo maybe? No silly its Jimmy!! He is starting to take shape....what kind of shape? well it was still a mystery to me at this point!
There he is!!! Wait a minute.............. he looks like a ghost! hmmmmmm He needs a little color, a little personality maybe?TA-DAH!! Jimmy the Parrot......he has attitude, a little cocky even.. every pun intended!!
Now..........can you see why I love him????
Jimmy stats: chocolate pound cake w/chocolate ganach filling,chocolate buttercream frosting and rice crispies.
1 hour to carve (me) along w/ my sidekick Sharlene... making me piss my pants w/her funny ass self
3 hours of detailing(me)
2 1/2 hours to paint (Debbie)
