toilet bowl that had to flush to a cake that’s got to spit fire,” Valastro, 46, told The Post.The celebrity baker whipped up the flushable toilet bowl, with the same pump and tube that’s inside an actual one, for the 100th anniversary of General Plumbing Supply in Bayonne, N.J.The cake that spits fire was in the shape of a dragon, which was 300 to 400 pounds of cake and close to 200 pounds of fondant, and crafted for the Armored Combat League.This year, a cake that stood out was the one he made for the Meadowlands State Fair.“It was actually a working swing and the cake was gigantic,” he said. “It wouldn’t fit in the truck, so I actually had to hire a flatbed and build a crate around it to deliver it.” He occasionally has to refuse an order because of the laws of physics.“If it’s going to be too gravity-defying . . .
