Divergent Cake – Faction before blood!
I’ve gotta say I had no idea what the customer was talking about when she first asked for this theme. But I always say – you learn things everyday in cake artistry!
This cake is completely hand cut and hand painted. I had the option to do an edible print as the cake photo the customer brought in, but I wanted to make it special. All the ‘Factions’ – the symbols are free hand painted on the discs and the main faction is hand cut. The ‘factions’ give the person a characteristic and a special power and the birthday boy has ‘Amity’ as his main characteristic. The last photo are the actual symbols for the factions.
Useless info: Divergent is a series of books like the Twilight Saga, the Hunger Games etc…it is soon to come out in a movie. There are 5 factions or characters or super powers and the person takes on a particular character. They each take on a character or power. The story is set in the city on Chicago – Illinois. It is very popular with teenagers, and I don’t exactly know too much about them. My kids are still babies at the Peppa pig and Lego phase so haven’t moved into this stage yet!
Thanks for looking.

great cake although I am still somewhat confused as to what Divergent still means..are they characteristics of a person or something or a higher order ???
