Baldur's Gate cake

in General Discussion (Spoiler Warning!)
Several days ago I had my 27th birthday. Nothing unusal about the day itself, I never really celebrated my birthday and especially namesday (it's on Christmas, so no one would notice anyway). On several occasions I would gather some of my friends to sit and have fun and most of the time I would buy the present for myself, since I know what I like etc. I don't like huge celebrations and partying in general.

This time however my girlfriend decided that if I don't want to celebrate my birthday, she'll take care of it. She invited some of our friends and ordered a huge cake for me, but not some ordinary cake with 27 candles, or something. No, she ordered a cake with a front cover of Baldur's Gate (Polish version), which looks like this:

And the cake itself:

She and my friends know how much I love this game and I was speechless. That's the best brithday cake I could wish for. I was hesistant to cut it, but it tasted as good as it looked. I still have some of it left, it was that huge.

You must eat the cake before venturing forth.

    Proceed with caution!
    It's common adventurer knowledge that cakes are lies. Many sweet tooths were lost due to treacherous cake mimics hiding amongst dessert leftovers.

    Lucky, lucky, lucky you!

    Also, you, sir, now are officially a subject to the rule number 858 of the "You know you're playing too much Baldur's Gate when" thing.

    Also, happy Baldursgatingirthday!

    @bengoshi Thank you and well, now it's official - I'm playing too much Baldur's Gate. I always thought that I could stop at any moment. That's the most important step to realise that I truly have a problem with addi...

    hmmm that would be an interesting character - playing a constantly drunk adventurer, or being addicted to some kind of potion: "I remember the day when I tasted the potion of Heroism. This has truly opened my eyes to the outside world!"

    That cake is brilliant, hats off to your better half! Presumably, being a Baldur's Gate cake it's either a fruitcake or full of nuts.
