One Piece Luffy Chiffon Cake

Finally had the courage to try Luffy, my favorite character from One Piece!

Even among my creations, I have some favorites and this is one of my new favorites! I was very thankful of the outcome as I was always apprehensive of making more complex human characters as they require more attention to detail, and it is not always easy to capture their expressions accurately. I thought this Luffy did have that wide-eyed carefree grin characteristic of him, so I was very thankful. The character also has many different colours and features to put together. I guess making the Chopper Chiffon Cake gave me some courage! And I thank God it worked out. The recipe for the Wood-style crate Chiffon Cake he is sitting on has been shared here. Hope this creation brings a smile to your faces too! I am a One Piece lover =p.

With lots of love,

Susanne

'One Piece Chopper' Straw Hat Chiffon Cake

Happy 元宵节! <3

Who can identify this character from One Piece?

I grew up loving One Piece and its adorable characters.

Made from chiffon sponge cake, making this brought back lots of memories!

This isn't my first Chopper cake, check out a previous smaller version here. That's how much I like it! <3 This one has a lot more details as I was feeling just a little more confident making this the 2nd time. I put the Chopper on the classic Straw Hat from the show.

And also not my first time making a Hat Chiffon Cake. I made a Willy Wonka Blueberry Hat chiffon cake for Penguin books almost at the start of my baking journey =).

Hope you like this happy creation!

Happy Chinese Valentine's day too! =D

With lots of love,

One Piece Chopper Chiffon Cake

Anyone loves One Piece?? I used to chase the anime over nights! That was before I had kids =p Chopper must be the cutest Reindeer ever! Here is my Chopper Chiffon Cake 💖

Anyway for this cake, it was rather stressful as the top (hat) is much bigger than the base, so it wasn't really so stable. I wouldn't want to make this again LOL. Thank God the recipient was still thrilled! =) Ah I miss those One Piece days!

With lots of love,

Susanne =)
