There's a Game of Thrones 'Red Wedding' Cake
By Lauren Smith
Without giving away *too* many spoilers (So.hard.), it's safe to say that the 'Red Wedding' in Game of Thrones is not all pretty white dresses, cupcakes and bunting. So we were pretty intrigued to see the Red Wedding cake created by Brighton chocolate masters Choccywoccydodah.
But it's not some Winterfell-obsessed bride that commissioned the design - it was actually made to mark the Blu-ray and DVD release of the hit HBO show.
Unveiled at a screening attended by Maisie Williams aka Arya Stark (she'll have some pretty vivid memories of filming THAT wedding scene), Christine Taylor, founder of Choccywoccydodah described the ideas behind this gory cake creation - and it's so intricate even die-hard fans of the books will be impressed.
"We decided to create a slaughtered cake, rather than a red cake, giving us the opportunity to try new techniques, new sculpting methods and new finishes. The daggers, swords and arrows were all created from chocolate, plunged into the cake and chocolate, revealing weeping bloody wounds."
Thought that was thought-out? There's more:
"We also included a cracked shield of the two families in the episode; House of Stark and House of Frey to symbolise the fact they are now at war. Four key team members of our cake team worked together, taking over 20 hours to create it. The cake is chocolate rum and raisin, enrobed in chocolate, of course!"
We have to admit the cake is incredible impressive - but would you want a dessert honouring the goriest GoT episode on your wedding day? This writer is intrigued - but then I am slightly biased as I have a full-on seating plan based on the TV show - inclduing tables for Starks, Dothraki and Lannisters....
Watch the making of the Red Wedding Cake on the Choccywoccydodah documentary, on TV channels Really and Watch in early Autumn 2014.
