I grew up in California and have only lived in Canada for seven years. Moving to a new country comes with challenges and introductions to new cultural experiences. One of these new experiences is discovering television shows that I have never seen. I was asked by a customer to create a special cake based on Dr. Who. The cake was to be in the shape of a Tardis. "What is a Tardis?" is what I asked myself.
Well, for those of you are not informed: A Tardis is "a time machine and spacecraft in the British science fiction television programme Doctor Who." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TARDIS
I loved the idea of creating something so elemental to a beloved tv show, as well as the challenge of making structure so full of measured detail. I had such fun bringing it to life in sugar!

I grew up in Texas and have only lived here two years. I had no idea what a tardis was either, but that's what I love -- learning new things! It'll make us sound so smrt to our friends in the States. :-)
Cooel! Just discovered your blog via twitter and its amazing! I love your creativity and style!
I'm tempted to recreate this in a couple of weeks for a friends wedding, but I've had my confidence knocked out of me quite severely and it will be a while before I tackle anything shaped, my first try was a bit of a disaster!
