Kirby is a smart choice for video game-inspired
cooking projects, because his games are
eating-themed. In addition, his circular shape is the easiest to recreate in food of any of the Nintendo stable -- chances are you don't have a Samus Aran cake pan. For that matter, based on the general cutesyness of his universe, Kirby could very well be
made of cake or something, unlike other Nintendo characters like Mario, who are unambiguously
made of human flesh.
For her cousin's birthday, Craftster indeliblechange made 24 sweet cuppin' cakes featuring Kirbies of different colors as well as various Kirbyana. The chili-chocolate (!) cupcakes were decorated using fondant. They look
really great!
