I don't think I could eat it, it's too lifelike.



Would you eat this Albino Burmese Python? It's sweet and tasty; seriously!

It's not made with snake in any way right?

Either way, no.
 
I'd eat it even if it was a snake.

I haves confession. I don't like chocolate cake. Chocolate frosting is fine, but I don't like chocolate batter.
I like really dense dark chocolate cake. But I agree, most chocolate cake batters aren't that tasty.

Actually was probably the sticht plate or the figure eight. Been a while. It heats up and releases an aroma from the friction. Not sure if the aroma actually comes from the belay device or the rope itself.

I hope this helps.

Doesn't the smell come mostly from what is on the rope? Sweat, biological matter from handling it or laying it on the ground. Been awhile since I was on-rope.
 
Yeah, I'd eat the cake. Might even try some snake if it is properly prepared...
 
Let's derail this thread into something more tasty.

no idea, but now we have a third candidate, thanks a lot.
 
I shouldn't really comment because you guys aren't talking about the same "chocolate cake" as I am thinking of. When I went to the US the desserts were very odd, but all the rest of the food was incredible, absolutely incredible. Every day I was there I ate as much food as I possibly could without getting sick. I guess because in Ireland the food is relatively tasteless we make up for it by having fantastic desserts.
 
I grew up in a family with a mother that is a fantastic cook. Even though she is in her late 80s now, she is still one of the best cooks I know. With a father and 5 sons, deserts were always around. By far, the favorite desert was her yellow cake with chocolate icing. BUT, we also knew the family mantra "there are no bad deserts, just some that go faster than others" :smile:

Yes, I'd give that cake a try :approve:
 
Hee hee, yeah I should specify, I was talking about "store bought" and restaurant desserts, nothing beats home baked cakes and pies, whatever country it is.

This Snake is a lie.

Joking aside that is one awesome cake.

Incredible snake cake! For my birthday, I'd always ask for my mother's home-made chocolate layer cake with peanut-butter frosting. Although if it looked as awesome as the snake cake, I don't know if I could have cut into it.
