This was a cake for my husband’s birthday. He loves the band Duran Duran and one of his favorite songs by them has the line “You shine like the midnight sun”. I made one of his favorite cakes, what I call the Witch’s Brew (coffee, cinnamon, and chocolate swirl), with chocolate frosting and covered it in rolled fondant. I used an airbrush to create a serene lake with mountains in the distance, and of course a giant glowing moon…the midnight sun. For the sides of the cake I used an exacto knife to gently imprint lines to look like wooden planks. I then hand painted them with food coloring to give them a wood look.
