I’m not even going to pretend that this will be the definitive anatomical cake post here at SheWalksSoftly. I have no doubt I’ll post plenty in the future, as I stumble upon them. But here are some very well done creations from the wonderful Cake Wrecks.

Fit for humans and zombies alike (I hope to get a cake like this after grad school):

I’m a big fan of organ themed celebrations, especially pre-surgical organ farewell parties. Perhaps this giant kidney comes from such a thing (do you have a better explanation? Maybe a promotion to Chief of Nephrology?):

I will kindly skip all “eat your heart out” puns as I post this cake. Just admire its twisting, turning aortic detail.

This last one wins the prize for realism, which in the arena of anatomical cakes is not necessarily a good thing. I give a great deal of credit to these talented chefs for their nearly photo-realistic accuracy. Bon appetit!
