Atari Cake: Tastes Like Vintage Gaming

By Eric Monday March 9, 2009

Wow! Check out this delicious looking Atari 2600 Console Cake. It was created by Cakes by the Pound, a bakery in Southern California that specializes in ‘edible works of art.’ Everything is edible, including that woodgrain looking board. That’s a special icing! Unreal!

I think I’ll tap Philadelphia’s Whipped Bake Shop to make something similar, only I’ll insist that it be able to play Keystone Cops. Oooh, or Pitfall! How sweet would that be? Maybe get some of John Freeborn’s scorpions running around the bottom. Awesome.

About this Blog

What's it mean to be a geek? Wikipedia defines a geek as "a peculiar or otherwise odd person, especially one who is perceived to be overly intellectual" and describes "one with low social skills, regardless of intelligence." Geekadelphia is a bunch of geeks blogging (and drawing) about all-that-is-geek in the City of Brotherly Love and beyond. We don't claim to be peculiar, odd, overly intellectual, lacking in social skills, hermits, hackers, or neophiliacs. We don't call everyone "n00bs" or "pwn" people on a daily basis. We've never watched Beauty & The Geek or Beat The Geeks when they were on television, though we did enjoy Freaks & Geeks. Who didn't? We do, however, claim to love video games, computers, pointless-inventions, high budget over-the-top action movies, useless gadgets, comic books, South Park, WoW, Family Guy, Star Wars, and consequently, episodes of South Park and Family Guy that make fun of WoW and Star Wars. Our goal? To talk about geeky things that interest us and highlight events, stores, and people in Philadelphia who, like us, are geeky. Welcome to Geekadelphia. Enjoy your stay... n00b.
