Gish 2022
Now that I'm allowed to post my GISH stuff, I hope you, oh my v. dears, will forgive some self-indulgent OFMD-adjacent picspam.
Prompt #77: Dressed as a pirate, eat a scurvy-preventing "40 orange cake" on a real tall ship (sailing vessel)... and use the snail fork. Save the orange peels! You'll need them for Item #3. Post your image to social media and tag #GISH, @sambaschutte and @OurFlagHBOMax.
Note the proper snail fork. I really hate the ones where you have to tag people on social media; it just feels so "notice me, sempai!"(derogatory). But I REALLY wanted to do this one. Samba was kind enough to heart it (I'm not on twitter at all except for GISH purposes, so forgiveness, please, if I'm mangling the terminology), but I'm going to show off the details he couldn't see here. So I set out to make this as close to an actually 40 oranges cake as possible. I doubled the cake to make 4 layers and the syrup from his recipe, and my oranges were a bit small, so that upped the orange count to around 12 for just the recipe as put out by Samba. Then, I made homemade marmalade (8 oranges) and homemade orange curd (2 oranges) and put them between the layers.
Incidentally, this recipe has the best buttercream icing I've ever tasted.
I candied another dozen oranges for decoration, and I made orange cardamom cookies with orange-rosewater glaze for decorations (another 2 oranges). So it's not EXACTLY 40 oranges worth of cake, but it's not for lack of trying.
In addition to the candied oranges and cookies decorated to look like orange wedges, I made a tryptic of the three canonical kisses by drawing on fondant with edible markers and paints. Alas, my artistic skills are kind of meh, I think it comes across who it's meant to be well enough. I made little cookie frames with edible pearls to go around them. I wish I could say the crack in Ed/Stede's frame was thematic, but it's really just that it was the first one I tried to mount, and I pressed too hard.
The topper was going to be a rice-crispie model of the Revenge perched atop a rice-crispie modeled orange with the Jiminez dagger through it, but my orange fondant went too red. I tried to correct by painting over it with the yellow glaze from my picture frames, which kind of worked, and also kind of made it look like the planet Jupiter. But then, when I tried to mount the Revenge on top, the ship started buckling under its own weight. So I nixed the orange and dagger. The ship, however, has tiny cookie versions of the crew (sadly, sans Ivan, I got to the end of my dough, and only had enough to make the little seagull blob, so I made an executive decision of whom to exclude, since Guz won't be coming back for season 2).
When I was decorating Ed, my son peeked over my shoulder and asked "Who's the Chad?" What can I say? He has excellent taste in men. Also, I accidentally dropped Roach on the table while I was decorating him, and his little arm broke off - the same one that he had to sew back on per the show. I just stuck it back on with some glaze.
So, not exactly how I envisioned it, but I'm pretty pleased with the final product. Also, it was hella tasty.
