This Shark Week Cake Is (Almost) Too Scary to Eat
Celebrate the 30th anniversary of Discovery’s Shark Week with a terrifying treat.
Anders Krusberg
Shark Week is a pretty big deal over on The Kitchen. This Saturday, the crew is coming together to decorate a Shark Cake that’s more than a little terrifying (but, oh so good).
Assembling the cake is easy and half the fun, making it a great kitchen project for the whole family. Kids can learn all about a shark’s special features like its countershading (decorated on the cake with gray and white frosting), as well as its jaws and teeth (Katie recreated the edible version using pumpkin seeds and slivered almonds).

“I think this will be the first cake that I’m actually afraid of,” Katie said.
So, The Kitchen crew had to know: how realistic is this shark cake?

New Season, Same Meaty Goodness
Katie is cooking up the juiciest recipes for all you meat lovers.
“I think it’s perfectly done,” said shark biologist and Shark Week contributor Dr. Craig O’Connell. “You have the countershading in there. You have the black eyes – they tend to be a little midnight blue. The jaws are perfect. It looks like half tadpole and then all shark. It’s incredible.”
