Here's the finished product:
I'll post more photos later. Hopefully some of which include the looks on people's faces when they see it. |

hahahahahahahahaha! So what do you think? Did I do okay? I couldn't find a cheap plain kitty litter pan oddly enough, so I just used the turkey pan. |

You're doing it as a joke, right? That looks a bit like soil, fertilizer and worms moving about (some of which were squashed).

It's supposed to be a kitty litter pan. And yes, it is a joke. Well, it tastes good, but it is meant to be funny.
Here's my ingredients:
German Chocolate cake .................................... $8
Plain White cake .............................................. $8
Tootsie Rolls ................................................... $2
Food color ...................................................... $2
Jello Vanilla Pudding ........................................ $4
Chocolate and White Creme cookies ................... $4
Looks on faces as they see the cake ................... Priceless

I'm with BP. From the photo, it looks a little like worms and dirt, which is another great squirm-inducing desert. Either that, or that kitty litter needs to be emptied STAT! _________________ I have a book coming out. Wanna see it?

$28 for that cake?!
Either it's lots bigger than I think it is or it's a really expensive cake.
...and I thought it was soil and worms, too. _________________ "Welcome to the paranoia club; cheapest fees in the universe and membership lasts forever."

You can't see the depth of the pan from that shot, but I was also guessing at the numbers a little bit too. It is two whole cakes though, so there's a lot there.
And it took Most Creative in the bake-off, so I did something right. |

well, mine was not so dark in colour.. this might confuse your err audience or guests...
important part is the pudding so that it looks squishy, and the EWWW-effect is really priceless here's a nice example, they made it look like real kitty litter... muhahaha

Yeah, not sure why mine got so dark. I'm guessing because a) I couldn't find just vanilla creme cookies, but rather the assorted and b) I used the recipe that called for German chocolate cake instead of spice cake, as some do. And the pudding came out just right, if I do say so myself. Parts of the cake clumped together, others did not. It was moist. People seemed to like it, so that makes me happy. At work, about half the cake got eaten, so they liked it too. |
