Transmogrify: turning a cake into a work of art!
It’s a new term for me, this “transmogrify.” But learning a new word can be fun, especially if it’s the theme of a weekly photo challenge from WordPress. Transmogrify means “To change in appearance or form, especially strangely or grotesquely; transform.” So surely changing a bit of sugar into fondant or buttercream to form something totally different than mere sweetness would qualify, right?
Transmogrify: To create a ladybug from a mound of cake and some frosting.
Transmogrify: To fashion an entire tree with little people from the book Caps for Sale.
Transmogrify: A bit of sugar transformed into a Dr. Seuss character.
And that’s how it was at Knoxville’s Great Cake Bake where a little “transmogrifying” was the order of the day. Pretty clever stuff. And tasty, too!
