The World’s Top 10 Best Ever Pigs in mud Cakes

The World’s Top 10 Best Ever Pigs in mud Cakes

Pig in mud Cake

First up, I will start by saying “THANK YOU” to everyone who has read, liked and shared one of my most popular posts “Top 10 Kit Kat Cakes” because it is thanks to that one post that a lot of you reading this will be following me. While I can’t do another kit kat cake top 10, I’ve decided to expand on one particular version of it…

Pigs in mud Cake

10 – The Original

This was the first pigs in mud cake to go viral anywhere on the web and without it, all of the ones there-forth would never exist, so I had to included it out of respect to the original maker.

9 – The Pigs Whiskers!?!

This cake maker loved the look of the “pigs in mud” style of cake, but her love of cats just got right in the way so she decided to make a ”cats in milk cake!” This is a fantastic little spin on the original design and would have been much, much higher if it had come with a making guide or recipe, which sadly it doesn’t. But that doesn’t stop it looking amazing.

8 – 3 little pigs, on 3 little tiers!

This is what I call raising the bar! This amazing Birthday cake is a 3 tier cake with the pigs in mud on top, held in a fence made from Cadbury’s Finger biscuits and Fudge Fingers! If that doesn’t get your mouth-watering then the ganache topping is sure to finish you off.

7 – The Designer

Without question, the best bit about this one is the loose chocolate shavings on top of the cake. 2 things make this cake stand out for me, the fact that the cake base was just brought in a shop meaning that there is hope we could all make a pig in mud cake, and the step by step picture guide to finishing it! It really is easy to follow and very well thought out.

6 – Looks all-white to me!

Sure it isn’t a massive spin-off from the original design, but the white chocolate kit kat fence really makes it stand out from the crowd. Once again there is no recipe or making guide in the image link, but it is still fantastic no matter what way you look at it.

5 – Is that a real pig?!?

Pigs in mud cakes do not get any better looking than this, this work of art was done by a baker called “Lambshack” and definitely looks amazing. It would have been my number 1, but there is no making guide or recipe in the image link, but boy does it look good.

4 – Which pig is called Charlotte?!?

This pigs in mud cake is very much a Charlotte style of cake (as seen in my own post “Top 10 Best Charlotte Cakes“) and once again it does look amazing but no recipe or making guide puts me off it a little.

3 – Piggy Bliss!

After seeing my top 10 kit kat cakes post radhika25 decided to make this one. The twist with this one is that the maker didn’t have kit kat’s so decided to use Redondo chocolate cookies, I thought it was a great little spin of the original idea and looks even tastier!

2 – Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies….Don’t fence me in!

You might have thought that without the chocolate bar fence, to hold the pigs in mud in it would look a bit rubbish, well it is time to think again, because this looks far from being rubbish and in fact looks rather amazing! I feel that the lack of a solid chocolate fence (no matter what it is made from) makes it look even better! Once again no recipe or guide.

1 – As clear as mud!

There might be an argument that this pigs in mud cake is more like the cats from number (9) and that they are in fact in milk! But argument aside, this is one of the best spins on the original design and looks beautiful. Sadly there is no recipe of making guide, but then again you just need to change a few things from the original recipe to match it. Simply stunning.

The World’s Top 10 Best Bundt Cakes

World’s Best Bundt Cakes
World’s Best Bundt Cakes
I love it when people feel happy enough to share their images of pets and things they are made with me. And one thing I do like learning about is cakes! (like you didn’t know by now) Well the other day someone sent me a link to a blog post about a sort of cake I had never heard of before. Apparently it is always made in a Bundt pan with the classic ring shape, but the ingredients and topping style can be anything the baker wishes it to be, so that means lots of variety and that means a top 10, so without further ado I bring you…

What these mini bundt cakes lack in size they make up for in presentation and taste! Made with both Lemon and Basil they are a great taste fusion that I am sure would make you the talking point if presented as an after dinner snack. Recipe and making guide in image  link.
Low Fat Chocolate Bundt Cake

8 – The low-fat chocolate cake? …Whatever!
Well apparently if we all end up in a nuclear bunker with nothing but food storage items this is the cake that we will be making and eating. Made from a bean puree it is strangely not only low in fat but also full of fiber and protein! Wonder what it tastes like? Well so do I, there is a partial making guide in the image link, but unlike the cake its nothing special.

7 – Made from Marble
It looks like this would put you into a diabetic coma, but it also puts you into a drooling fit all once. This marble effect pure chocolate bundt cake is as good as it gets and for me it is more traditional (and easier to make) than most the others here. Full recipe and making guide in the image link makes it well worth drooling over…I mean looking at!
Chocolate Zucchini Cake

6 – A Chocolate zucchini?!?
At first I will admit I was slightly grossed out by the name of it, but after reading that a zucchini is 85% carbohydrate and really good for you and your kids I started to understand the method behind the madness and realised that this cake is in face born of pure genius! With a full on recipe and step by step image guide it is well worth trying at least once.
