This is so cool... for my birthday my sister-in-law made this cake for me. She has always been one of the most creative people I know, but this was just simply awesome that she did this...

When I got married, I discussed the possibility of a 3D tornado with the baker for the groom's cake. We finally decided on a standard cake shape but used scanned images from my photography including a couple of tornadoes, wall cloud, animals and butterflies. The top image is of comet Hale-Bopp over the University of Virginia Rotunda. The baker has a device that takes digital images and prints them on sugar using standard food dyes. It works best for more contrasty images. By the time the photo was taken, the large image slightly wrinkled but it still looks pretty good.
