Learn how to make an Animal Cell Cake! What can only be seen under a microscope can now cover an entire serving plate. What was once unseeable can now be Seen, Touched, and EATEN!

Cut yourself a wedge for dessert or SNACK on a Nucleus, Lyosome, or some Chromatin!

This is a cake made to look like an animal cell. I made it because it was a science project, but I thought it would be a good instructable. So hey! Two assignments down with one project! How is that for efficient and creative? You too can REUSE your projects for multiple assignments. But, you might want to ask your teacher first if it is OK to recycle your projects.

The cake looks exactly like the inside of an animal cell and tastes amazing.

IF YOU HAVE NUT ALLERGIES USE SOMETHING OTHER THAN ALMONDS!!!!!!!

Enjoy as a great SNACK or dessert and feel free to use this as a guide for your next Science project.

What will the DIS Demon Makers come up with next?
