I must be the only one that thinks the last cake looks kinda like a Dalek with his head ripped off. Whoops, caught me with my nerd showing. LOL
SuBee??? SuBee...??? Where did you go? You didn't finish your sentence and I KNOW you are great with your grammar...SuBee...Oh. My. Gawd. What's happening? aaaaarrrrrgggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh
@Joan, agreed...controlled explosion...way out in the desert...the Sahara, or the Gobi, NOT the Mojave! HUGE controlled explosion, very far away so we NEVER have to see the ingredients again.
An aside: Purchased one of those honey and sesame seed snack bars the other day, in huge print on the front it said "100% pure ingredients" Hunh, is there something besides ingredients that a company would put into a snack? Wouldn't it be considered an ingredient after you put it IN there, thereby establishing the obsolescence of the quote? If it's not an ingredient...what the h*** did you do to it that it can now have things that are not ingredients?? (yes, all, I know they were trying to make it sound healthy, evidently there's a translation issue between Chinese and English with the words "natural" and "pure")
Hahaha @mel I LOVE your 'Royals' parody, I was singing along! Brilliant! 😂
I love all the different things that commentators saw on that last monstrosity. Jalapenos, olives, green condoms, pickle slices. Personally I saw kiwi slices when I first looked at it. Its like a Rorschach test in cake form. Wonder what our responses say about our personalities.
Bravo, John (thoj), Bravo. But you forgot to tell us to try the veal.
I still don't understand "professionals" did those...What is the requirement to be a professional, like local bakery or store bought... Because what company would claim these cakes
I LOVE the song, best take on Royals that I have come across,
"we aren't caught up in your cake affair"
genius
PS I love the site, too, watch it daily and read the comments.
Thank you and keep 'em coming
OMG Mel I'm dying over here! Giggle snorts! I will never hear that song the same way again!
I like the slow progression of ever more awfulness in this series of shots, an ever deepening view of Man's inhumanity to Man.
Oh my word. I love that song. Lol @ grimacing in pain. It just derailed from the first! Horrendous! (I mean that in the nicest way.). Wedding wrecks indeed. I'd ask for my money back
Oh, come on. That's not fair. Those HAVE to all be amateur cakes - well, maybe except the first two.
But as much as I don't want to hurt Aunt Harriet's feelings, that last one just killed my appetite for dinner.
Actually, it makes me want to puke.
Well, I didn't feel like cooking anyway.
.....OK, better now. I'll recuperate by reading everyone else's comments (mmm, better than dinner!)
Hurt myself reading mel's "Bakers".... Especially "and we're fine with this, we don't have any talent...no one's gonna want a piece"
:ROTFL: <wheez> ah, hurts so good....
thanks, mel!
As far as the last one goes, all I got is that maybe it was inspired by a volcano and Hawaii....
The top looks like it is erupting off the cake. The heart seems to resemble lava and even seems rocky at the edges. The flower petals make me think of Hawaiian leis and well Hawaii has volcanoes. My wife thinks this idea is probably more cohesive that the actual inspiration. So, um yeah.... volcanoes and stuff...
The first one wouldn't be too bad if you took away the tacky flowers and the Snooki-esque spray tan.
This cakes are the saddest kind of cake wrecks, they would've all been great cakes...except for <fatal flaw>.
On #1 it's the orange airbrushing, on #4 it's the the glitter & dried flowers, & on #5 it's a complete lack of effort to make it look nice.
And what is that... thing in the middle of the last one??
@Gooblesnoober: Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
@drpfisher: Thanks for your kind comment. And I love this site, too!
@THE Valerie Hunter: Thanks! Glad for the giggle snorts, but death is a little too far….. (Hope I didn’t ruin the song for you….)
@Blondie's Mom: You are so welcome! Your comment made me laugh. (And I’m sorry you hurt yourself and hope the pain subsides soon…or not, depending upon how good it feels….)
I was looking through these, thinking most of these aren't THAT bad, we've seen worse here... then I got to the last one. Yipes!
Does anyone else get the overall impression of a half-plucked, green polka-dotted chicken with its neck stretched?
Hahaha, had so much fun giggle-snorting my way through the comments today. Loved the song too, mel.
I wonder if the people who made these cakes think they did a good job...
Oh man. The first one was rather nice compared to the rest of these things. At least it looked fairly even lol. I don't even want to know what held up those other cakes..eww.
Mel, you win the Internet with your "Bakers"/Royals parody. Love it!
On the last one I saw a crashed spaceship, freshly picked petals slowly going slimy (bonus points for garden wildlife!), WHAT THE HECK IS THAT THING?, blueberries, and half green cherry tomatoes, all mashed into popcorn-yellow icing.
M-mmm. Where's that cake cutter?
@mel Well done
@melanie sparkles, @AnotherJen, @Ela: Thank you, all. I'm glad you enjoyed it! This is such a fun place to come and laugh and play!
Reminded me of the scene in Good Morning Vietnam where What a Wonderful World was sung to the slideshow of carnage.
