Why are there three?????
I guess I'm just weird, but this cake seems cute to me. 1yo babies, in my experience, LOVE boobs.
For the person who asked " Why three?" One cake with the two is for every one to eat and the single one is the smash cake that the baby gets to maul and spread all over.
Yes, professional bakers make "Smash cakes". There are some really darling ones out there!
My daughter is breastfeeding. Her favorite 'food' is breastmilk. Why wouldn't we have an awesome booby cake? Just because it's boobs doesn't mean she will be a stripper or any of the other negative connotations in the comments on this photo. We planned to have a booby cake for her 1st birthday, but that didn't pan out. She will likely have a booby cake for her 2nd birthday if I can pull it off. Not for public viewing, but on her actual birthday.
I made one (as in, ONE BOOB) for my son's first birthday 6 years ago. Reasoning? All he liked was nursing. He wouldn't even eat solid food at the time; his life revolved around his boobies. So he got a boob cake, but I topped it with a tick (because we called him a boob tick). You should've seen all the breastfed babies in that room just swoooooon, and lean in for a latch.
People still talk about that cake!
Lol!
LOL at FluffyCow and Bonnie!
If my daughter's first birthday cake were to feature her favorite things in the world that's exactly what we would have to order too.
I get it.... its baked with breast milk based dairy goods 😐
@Just Andrea - LOL... Loved it!
I think that 'Cake Wrexxx' should be a regular thing.
Just imagine what she's gonna get for her Sweet 16 cake!!
My aunt made cupcakes for my cousin's 1st birthday. They were cupcakes with white frosting and many of them had just one red hot candy in the middle. Another relative and I about died trying not to laugh, because she had no idea what she had done...
I'd say her parents have a great sense of humour, judging by these cakes.
My daughter would have loved this as her first birthday cake.
Breasts aren't sexual to a one year old (or a parent nursing a one year old, when in the context of a one year old). They are food, comfort, and the BEST THING IN THE WHOLE WORLD. Far better to have them on a cake than some random thing the kid doesn't know or care about!
Well, there's also this one...it squirts milk!

@Sandy: thanks for the “hearty snort laugh”….and hope you’re upright soon!
@Jodee: loved your story…and SuBee is the dangerous one…I’m just a shy, shrinking violet….
@Fluffy Cow: good one!
@VaBeach alemap: Thanks, and I’m glad you liked it (and I hope your breathing has returned to normal)…sometimes it’s fun to bring back things from the past…and Amber’ has quite a past…this is such a great place to play….
@Lala: credit for that goes to SuBee; that’s a quote from one of her funny, funny previous posts….
@Just Andrea: well done, well done…I enjoyed the puns and word play….
@Deedee- just as long as it's not Red Velvet!
Brilliant, DeeDee! I always wondered what a tres leches cake was and now I see why they are so popular. ;)
What on earth is a "Smash Cake" and why is that even a thing? When I was a kid we just had regular old cake (baked uphill, in the snow, both ways) and if we smashed it we would be ashamed. Ashamed I tell you! Kids today!
Much like Skate, I'm wondering how this played out once the baby made the connection between the appearance of the tasty cake she could bite and fist, and mommy's breast.
Considering the usual theme of this site (funny and/or ugly cakes) and the fact that it seems to have many working/parent viewers, I think it was reasonable, if not outright wise, to censor these cakes. Its not like you didn't make the original easily available to anyone who was inclined to view it. I don't see why any explanation was needed. Also, it is your site.
I honestly... I don't even. What. I mean... what was the story behind this? Sometimes (okay, oftimes) you get wrecks that look like parts of the human anatomy, but they're usually supposed to be something else and the baker is just an idiot.
This... this can't be anything other than what it is. What would possibly possess anyone to order a boob cake for a first birthday?
And why are there three boobs?!
MY MIND.
WTF. I thought this would be for a bachelor Ette party that is so... WTF
I don't think it's stupid to censor a boob...even a cake boob.
How this cake happened, my theory:
They asked for a "baby" cake for McKenzie's 1st b-day, probably over the phone....the baker did not hear the word "baby"; he heard another word, similar to "baby" but with a different vowel sound.
Then, on the way home for the b-day party, they picked up & payed for their "baby" cake...they did not check the box before paying...they got their "baby" cake home, opened the box, and only then discovered that the baker had made a "booby" cake.
The moral of the story? As we have seen time & again here on CW....Always check the cake, at the bakery, before you pay, always!
Am I the only one getting more confused as to why there is a separate, lone boob cake?
Who would do that????
Oh. My. God.
I am the baker. Seriously.
So here's the scoop. Mom is planning a first birthday for her daughter and tells me she's having a BREASTFEEDING themed party. These are the cakes she wanted, and I made them.
It wasn't an error on my part...she wanted a boob cake and I delivered.
The "lone boob" was the smash cake that she ordered.
