Literally? LITERALLY.

If Cake Wrecks has taught us anything, it's that you have to be really careful what you say to a baker:
Houston, we have a problem.
Insert snarky comment here: ...........
This one I'm actually Ok with - but only because the baker included some this time.
Ah, the perils of buying a cake and picking it up later:
(Do you think the baker write5 all hi5/her Ss like thi5?)
"So, whaddaya want?"
"Hang on, where?"
Wow. That is SO...well, you know.
I guess we should be glad these mistakes are on cake, though, which is easily disposed of. I hear tanker trucks are way more difficult:
Well, maybe not if you have a match, but still.
And what does it say when this pops up in front of your kids' school?
I get the feeling this "shold read" something else.
So the next time you see a literal LOL iced on a cake, just remember:
Somewhere there are people with this frame on their mantels.
(Although I bet they got it for cheap!)

Is the "insert name" cake an intentional Terry Pratchet reference?
Gotta say....
That Burr Oak school probably should have
started their ISATS just a tad sooner, maybe...?
=^-.-^=
trying to decide if I am more disturbed that they didn't actually TRANSLATE it to Arabic or that they misspelled Arabic....
Maybe Adam's turning 5 years old.
I'm sure Mrs. Enid Frame would love a gift like that from her grandchildren, lol! ;)
I guess #7 is a perfect example of what happens when you rely on the lowest bidder....
Hey! I'm sure Grandma Frame was very touched.
Maybe Burr Oak was too brrrrroke to afford all of the letters.
OMG! Laughing so hard tears are rolling down my leg!
You know, if the family's last name was actually Frame, that last one would be awesome.
Even if it was in Arabic, doesn't mean it would be right. Have you ever seen the Welsh road sign that says "I am currently out of the office - please send work to be translated"?
Oh my!
Thank you!
The second cake is beautifully executed, such a waste of talent.
At least "Congratulations" was spelled correctly! Things are looking up!
Darn, Sarah beat me to pointing out the misspelling of Arabic!
Thanks iMark. I hadn't seen the Welsh sign thing so I googled it: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/7702913.stm
I gotta say, that flag is one of the most nicely executed that I've seen in a long time. The baker's judgment in including every single word on the order form, not so much.
Oh man these are priceless. Oh the laughing right now.. :D
That 'L" on Good luck, does not look like an "L"
😳
On the upside, that American flag is actually really good!
