We Don't Need No Lava Soap, Pope
March 14, 2013 All everyone seems to be talking about right now is the new Pope, so I feel duty-bound to bring you some relevant cakes and punny commentary.
;)
There's a new Pope in town - DON'T CROSS HIM.
I know, I know; that was terrible. Crappy, even. Here, let me see what else I've got ...
[searching wrecks]
Ok, so it turns out I have no Pope cakes. Who knew? Maybe everyone's making them today, and I'll have a big influx of funny hat cakes tomorrow? (Fingers crossed!)
Ah, but I *do* have communion cakes, and those are kind of Pope-y, right?
;)
"Camunicen" must be one of the more obscure sacraments.
You won't think this next one is quite so terrible when I tell you the writing was done using nothing but those little squeeze packets of ketchup:
;)
I'll be lying when I tell you that, though, so maybe you should go ahead and keep thinking it's terrible.
I think this is supposed to be a Bible:
If so, then this bakery deserves to have the (good) book thrown at them.
Ever wonder what happens when a baker's ego gets SERIOUSLY out of control?
;)
I do have a few more related wrecks, but I'm pretty sure if I posted them I'd start a holy war in the comments of Epcotian proportions.
In related news, would it surprise you to learn that I have not one, not two, but FOUR DIFFERENT CAKES shaped like the head of Jesus wearing the crown of thorns? And one shaped like Him bleeding on the cross? Because I do, people. THOSE CAKES EXIST. I feel sacrilegious just looking at them.
Thankfully I can turn to the patron saint of butchered shamrocks for comfort, though. And also for laughs.
;)
Ok, mostly laughs.
Thanks to Shannon H., Stephanie C., Vicky H., Darla D., Shannon U., & Allison K., who shall henceforth be singing this jingle every time they see the Pope on TV. YOU'RE WELCOME.

Happy Birthday, Fluffy Cow! Did you have a birthday cake or a birthday pie?
Happy birthday to Fluffy Cow, the fluffiest of the bovines! All hail!
Thank you for this. I needed some good giggles at work.
Personally, I think these are just a result of "purging out the old leaven" in connection with 1 Corinthians 5:7-8 - or I would hope. I don't want to know the truth. I can't handle the truth. ;-)

You're going to make us beg to see the Jesus cakes, aren't you?
Waiting to see the Jesus cakes...
Happy belated birthday, Fluffy Cow!!!
Ok, i just love your site. I have not laughed so hard in a long time. Thanks for the posts!
PLEASE show the Jesus cakes!
My son says that last one looks like a golf course with a mudslide. Or a pooping alien. Bleck. The crossed cupcakes are the worst though.
I waited TWO WHOLE DAYS and there is still no π day.
SERIOUSLY!!!
"In related news, would it surprise you to learn that I have ... one shaped like Him bleeding on the cross?"
Why do I suddenly fear that my artwork is about to appear on Cake Wrecks? And if it's not, the cake I made is far better than the one for which you have a photograph. I mean, the cake inside was rainbow!
"It's a "Bible" cake
and these are "herb" cupcakes, bro,
errrr, Brother in Christ."
So glad I'm not the only one that noticed they looked like pot leaves.
