Escalation

Whilst lying on my back and reading over my shoulder, Mr. Joshlet spotted this spectacular terror of a hidden flag cake and declared he wants it for his next birthday, but in chocolate.

The scariest thing is that I know how I could make it in chocolate (red velvet cake). I just don't know where, because there is no way we can assemble it in our house unless we buy a chest freezer.

Also, EEEEK. This is what I get.

Looks like the cake I made for July 4 but with more layers (I was shortcutting due to lack of time). Not sure why you would need a chest freezer though?

*nod* It's the same idea, elaborated. (And your cake was gorgeous!) The chest freezer would be to have a freezer with enough space to freeze the cake layers.

Still not sure why freezing is necessary? How far ahead are you intending to make this?

Ah, point. I didn't actually read the recipe, since I've seen the concept previously. I wasn't thinking about fragility.
