If you're a fan of Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones or both this hybrid Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones cake design is definitely going to peak your interest. The cake, designed by Tracey from Black Cherry Cake Company, celebrates the popularity of both television dramas.
While Breaking Bad came to an end this year, HBO's Game of Thrones still has several more seasons to go. This cake comes with a black fondant covering topped with an edible miniature version of the iconic Iron Throne. Sitting in the Iron Throne is a sugar candy Walter White figurine complete with his infamous red beard and wired glasses. 'Happy Birthday Andrew' is printed along the side of the cake using elements of the periodic table to cleverly spell out the first letter of each word. This cake design is a great way to showcase your love for both shows.
