Twin Towers

One of the companies I work for got bought up by a larger company a while ago and the legal merger officially completed a week or so ago. I got asked to make a cake to mark the occasion - nothing fancy, just something for the department to scoff while the dust settled.

The two companies both have quite distinctive head office buildings in Frankfurt so I thought I'd try to reconstruct them in sponge cake. It's not my finest work, but I think it's my tallest:

The Silver Tower

The Silver Tower, owned by Dresdner Bank AG - a German high street bank. If the cake looks like it's about to fall over that's probably because it is...

This is what it should look like, courtesy of the Google 3D warehouse model of it.

The Commerzbank Tower

The Commerzbank Tower, owned by, er, Commerzbank - another a German high street bank. This one looks a bit more stable, but even so I'd steer clear in case of falling cakework...

Here's the 3D model for this one as well.
