I think a competition is in order. So I took it up on myself to create one of the most random, nonsensical, and unexpected challenge possible. We've had competitions of making pegasi out of food, but what if we make the food out of a Pegasus? The challenge:
Create a dessert pastry inspired by your OC and submit it!
Rules:
Tracing is allowed
You can use an OC OR and OG from the series
CREATIVITY people - this is key.
You can literally put anything you think contributes to your pegasus' spirit.
Prizes
1st gets a full body pegasus with fancy background your choice. OR a short story
2nd gets a full body no background OR a short story
3rd Headshot OR a short story
4th and so forth a feather or (depending on how many entries) a headshot
Okay umm you can tell me what your doing or leave it a surprise to guess! That would be fun...
Enjoy!
Edit: you can bake or draw it!!
Deadline: January 7th
Ahhhh sorry guys life happened and I...might have forgotten. They will be posted by Friday I swear
Okay this is closed! I will post the results shortly!
Art is below all the explanations:)
top to bottom and left to right:
Duskfeather (banana bread)- a strong battle stallion (crust-like texture on top) who can be standoffish and aggressive at times (the fact that banana bread is made from mushy overripe bananas), but he is super sweet (the deliciousness of banana bread and the gooey chocolate chips)
Flareshine (strawberry-lime cupcake)- a pretty, though guarded filly (fancy wrapper) with a normally sweet disposition (strawberry flavor), though she is fiercely loyal and brave (lime flavor) and will always stand up for what she believes in (the tartness of the lemon zest in the frosting)
Alderspark (cinnamon roll)- a super sweet boi (sugary sweet taste) with an adventurous streak and a tendency to cause explosions (kick of cinnamon), and is just a cinnamon roll in general :)
Skylight (chocolate cake pop)- a standoffish loner (dark chocolate flavor) with an ironic name because she has a deformed wing and little control over her power (slight kick to the frosting) and doesn't like to get close to anyone (hard shell of icing)
Petalshy (vanilla cake)- a compassionate and generous mare (sweet vanilla flavor) who may appear harmless (fancy frosting) but will fight like a cornered tiger if you hurt those she cares about (tart raspberry and blackberry filling)
Blossomlight (gingerbread cookie)- a tiny, sweet, and adorable filly (sweetness of the cookie and icing) who is loyal and mischievous (the natural spice of gingerbread)
Cardinalblaze (chocolate cupcake)- the funny older brother to Blossomlight (fun chocolate taste) who is hilariously fierce and very annoying (there's chili pepper seasoning in the cupcake and the cream cheese frosting)
Sparktail (Japanese souffle cheesecake)- a kind and perceptive young mare (sweetness of cheesecake and the strawberries on top) who HATES others being mad at her and wishes she was brave (the way a souffle cheesecake collapses on itself after too long) but may find that she's braver than she thinks she is (the fresh cranberry behind the strawberries)
Pinewind (hot fudge brownie)- a fiercely loyal stallion (chewy chocolate brownie) who is sweet and always supportive of those he loves (hot fudge sauce all over him)
Bluemoon (Oreo ball)- a fierce and clever mare skilled in fighting (crunchy Oreo chunks) who is protective and does not trust easily (rock candy barrier) but once you earn it she'll be kind and loyal (sweet Oreo cream)
Heatherfrost (blackberry tart)- a smart and swift battle mare (hard crust) who has a quick hoof and a sharp tongue (tartness of blackberries)
Starflower (brown sugar cookie)- a caring mare (sweet brown sugar) who will fight like a grizzly bear if threatened (crispy top) and will do anything for her core values, justice and peace (Hershey chocolate kiss)
Aspensea (apple crisp)- a clever boi who's loyal and protective of those who earn it (sweet and tart apples) and is very creative and loving (crisp topping and brown sugar on top)
Autumnflight (lemon muffin)- a selectively mute filly with a somewhat sour personality (sharp lemon taste) who doesn't get along with others easily (chewy outside) but deep down is super nice (sugary glaze)
Moonray (mint chocolate cake ball)- a shy mare who trusts slowly (hard coating of icing) and has a shy and sweet (chocolate flavor) personality with a snappy but adventurous streak (the snap of peppermint in the icing)
Winterheart (mini geode cake)- a clever, fierce, and very smart sass queen (the mint in the cake) who is naturally guarded (the hardness of the crystals) with a difficult past (green crystals) but a passive-aggressive attitude (royal purple crystals)
Nightblossom (oatmeal raisin cookie)- a mysterious loner (tartness of the raisins) with a clever mind and sharp tongue (spices) who cares about everyone and loves justice (sweetness of the brown sugar)
Snowgale (pomegranate tart)- a standoffish, shy mare (hard crust) with a beautiful voice (sweet taste) but little trust in others (tart taste) or control of her power (closed-off appearance of the crust)
Jewelfeather (lemon-blueberry cheesecake)- a brave and witty mare with a quick temper (sharp taste of the lemon) and a fierce loyalty to her brother and friends (sweet and tart blueberries)
Riverstone (layered fudge)- a complex mare (layers) with a sweet (caramel fudge) and creative (butterscotch fudge) personality with a fierce streak (dark chocolate fudge) and a taste for adventure (white chocolate) who is super smart and never wavers from her core values of truth and freedom (milk chocolate fudge)
Emberstrike (chocolate dipped donut)- the funny and witty (distinct flavor of the donut) brother to Jewelfeather who is loyal (chocolate dip), goofy (sprinkles), and a huge history nut (almonds)
Falconsong (black licorice ice cream cake)- a guarded (coldness of the ice cream) though kind songwriter (sweetness of the ice cream) who is bullied by most pegasi (because most people hate black licorice) even though she's really nice (sugar sprinkles)
WOW that took a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time to type XD but ta-da!!!!!
aaaaaaah I forgot again 😣
BUT I have my entry and am posting it right now!
Working on mine right now!
I shall post it tonight!
Thank you so much Ray! I'm almost done redoing the progress I lost and then I'll be finished!
May I please have until midnight tonight?
I am so so sorry, my device crashed and I had to redo some of entry 😣
hi hello yes sorry this is late, just started classes again and i have been *busy* . anyway, here are the cupcakes!
i based them off of Riverglade, though you can't tell by the decoration lol. Its an earl gray-lemon cupcake (for her blue-roan coloring), with pomegranate filling (her dry personality and humor) and a lemon buttercream (sour personality, with a little bit of sweetness hidden in there), and pomegranate seeds and candied lemon zest for the decoration. Ya'll. These cupcakes were so good. Definitely one of my more obscure flavor combos (which is saying something, i've done some weird stuff), but it was seriously so good, my entire family was surprised, it was awesome. I would also like to let it be known that these are wheat/gluten/dairy/soy free, bc i have an irritating number of allergies :')
I didn’t realize the competition was make your OC like a food, not make your character into a dessert XDD
sorry I forgot to post my entry yesterday, thank you so much for extending the due date :)
alright, I'm busy for most of today, but I'll post my entry this evening, probably around 6-7 my time zone :)
I made the cupcakes yesterday, but we lost power last night so it'll be a little bit before i can post the photos. Not too long though, I'll hopefully post them tonight.
Done!
Drawing time - 2:18:44
I admittedly had a really hard time coming up with an idea for this one and I'm not really a baker, but I finally decided on drawing a dozen cookies decorated to match the feather colors for 12 of some of my favorite OCs:
Honeyfall (the blue one on the top left)
Snowfrost (the white one on the top)
Mistcloud (the gray and white one on the left)
Silverflame (the silver and gold one in the middle)
Hazelstorm (the green and white one on the top)
Patchfeather (the white one in the backish)
Stormfeather (the gray and aqua one on the bottom left)
Ambersky (the black one on the bottom)
Cherrycloud (the jade green one on the top right)
Dragonflight (the gold one on the right)
Pearlsong (the pink and silver one on the middle lower right)
Pebblebreeze (the light purple one on the bottom right)
So the deadline is extended to Monday? thank goodness lol 😅 I'm almost done with my entry! <3
Deadline is this weekend! Get your entries in by Monday :) The competition is looking great so far!!
I made a peppermint chocolate waffle for my OC, Moonlake.
First off a peppermint chocolate waffle is obviously chocolate and peppermint chocolate mixed together on top of a waffle.
My character is very adventurous and creative. I was mixing random things around when I made this.
The peppermint represents how she adds a little flavor and excitment into everything she does. The hershey kisses shows how sweet she is. The unfortunetly melted blue sprinkles is her blue wings. The chocolate on top of the waffle represents how she turns your everyday life into something exciting and festive. It also shows her sense of adventure and willingness to try new things.
I made a cookie butter cheesecake for Bumblewind.
In TGH, Bumblewind is cited as a character that enjoys milk. This recipe uses a lot of dairy products, so I thought that was fitting. Bumblewind is as sweet as a cookie to all of his friends and his family. Also, the colors of the cake are similar to his bay pinto appearance. For Bumblewind!
One week left! I'm slightly extending it for those who haven't finished, (which is everyone except for Lion and maaaybe Snow?) Let me know how you're doing! :)
