I’m making a cake for denizens of Tartarus, with the the following ingredients.

one teaspoon cerumen oil  
two cubes of the finest French smegma cheese  
mix in three cups of succus entericus extract  
fold in one pound of strained meconium  
a dash of sweetened crusta lactea (to taste)

I’m wondering if I’ve forgotten anything. Do you have anything to suggest, either for the cake itself or a side dish?

(I suggest a Google Image search on each ingredient, to get into the spirit of the thing.)

Substitue fromunda cheese for the smegma cheese.

Good one! I was trying to think of a less-direct synonym.

is it a multilayer cake? make fromunda cheese frosting instead of using it as a substitute for the smegma\* (similar to creamcheese frosting) and put toejam between the two layers?

\*although I’m just guessing this would work, I’m not a chefguy nor have I ever played on tv or in a movie

Second hit from a Bing search for _French smegma cheese_ is…this thread.

To me, it only works if you somehow manage to add Bhut Jolokia, ipecac and a good amount of fibre.

Yes, physical ingredients for the damned souls. The souls themselves and all their shattered dreams yadda yadda yadda at some point become foodstuffs for the demons, but that’s not my department.

One more condition: all ingredients must be at least theoretically edible. No thumbtacks.

I don’t see any tofu in that cake. Can’t get much nastier than tofu.

Oh, I was saving [stinky tofu](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stinky_tofu) as a side dish. The first time I visited Taiwan, I had to stop and gag for a moment, asking my companion, “who on _Earth_ is frying _dog shit_ on the street?!”

Only problem is some people apparently like it. Bleah.

I hope when the OPs done, they’ll consider adding a plastic bride & groom on top.
