It is at the height of wedding season and why not celebrate the big day with a cake that shows your love is “The will of Manos!”. The iconic set of the cult’s ceremony spot from movie from “Manos: The Hands of Fate” is memorable to any MSTie or audience who has seen the film. I set out to make a cake that both honors the film and is fun to make. Here’s what you will need to make a cake The Master would approve of:
- Vanilla “Funfetti” cake mix (for the sand battles with your multiple wives)
- White frosting
- Black icing pen
- Candle (the more fiery the color is better)
- Rice crispy treat
- Model pillars
- 6 to 8 toothpicks
- 8″ x 8″ square aluminum cake pan
- 1 cup water
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup oil
- Mixer bowl
- Whisk
- Cookie sheet
Now to mix up your batter (and not your hair in the sand!)
- Add 1 cup of water to mixer bowl
- Pour 1/2 cup of oil in bowl
- Break 3 eggs into bowl
- Beat ingredients in bowl with whisk by hand until well mixed (If you do not mix it by hand, it would not be fateful!)
Next: Prepare the sacrifice of the pan in the oven!
- Spray pan with nonstick cooking spray
- Preheat oven to 350° F
Now to bake the cake:
- Pour cake batter into pan
- Place pan on cookie sheet
- Bake for 34 to 38 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from cake
- Remove from oven
- Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes
To decorate the motel, I mean, cake!
- Slide cake out of pan
- Place rice crispy treat in back middle of cake
- Frost with white frosting all over including over rice crispy treat
- Place pillars in the four corners of cake.
- Stick toothpicks in center of cake with candle (spread them out enough that you won’t burn your hand off!)
- Put candle in center
- Use icing pen to make outside of fire pit
Now you are ready for a wedding for a couple that is “the will of Manos!”
