I Bet The Unicorn Wasn't The Only One Crying
July 13, 2018 You know those unicorn cakes that are all the rage right now? Like this?
;)
(By Rosanna Pansino)
Well, this bakery tried to recreate one, and you guys...
It's just sad.
;)
Huh. I always figured unicorn tears would be more glittery.

Megan's baker said she could make these Abby Cadabby cookies:

(By Pink Little Cake)
But instead, well, let's just say there were a lot of long faces at the party that day:

And finally, I think the next baker was trying to make this Tinkerbell cake:
;)
SO CUTE.
Er...
Brace yourselves.

"Here's lookin' at you, screaming kid."
Thanks to Jean T., Megan P., & Paul P. for that PSA on the dangers of excess eyeliner.

That first one is no unicorn - it's a Conehead. Or maybe it's on of the Conehead's pets.
The second one needed the tears. Then they'd be the tears of a clown, for what else could all those be?
The third one must be E.T.'s girlfriend.
1, 3, and 5 aren't bad at all, actually.
AAAAAUUUUUUUGGGGHHHHHHHH D:
OMG. That last one. I can't breathe. I am crying. That is so sad and so funny. Totally made my day.
To be fair, that last one is a pretty good rendition of a nightmare demon spawn...if that's what the baker was going for ;-)
@Lorna: This is a Missed Marks post, so every odd-numbered cake is supposed to be good in contrast with what comes immediately after.
Is Tinkerbell made of tapioca pudding?
@Lorna 1, 3, and 5 are the good examples that the bakers of 2, 4, and 6 tried (and failed) to imitate.
Those Abby-clown cookies are cracking me up. =-)
Of course the unicorn is crying ! Having your ears turned sideways HAS to be painful - _ -
Jen, I hope you have watched Nailed It on Netflix. It's the greatest show ever and I feel you would definitely appreciate it. In one episode they tried to recreate a unicorn cake. The results were something.
I've heard of cottage cheese thighs, but CC Cheeks? yikes
I think I am a little traumatized by the last one. So close but so very far away.
I think I'm most puzzled by the texture of Tink on that last cake. Like, just, how?!
That last cake kind of looked like the love child of Tinkerbell and the Grinch. Like there was something wrong with the relationship and that was the only catharsis that they could find without violence.
The "Abby Cadabby" cookies look like killer clowns, and "Tinkerbell"........ I don't even know. A mummified swamp monster? And that poor unicorn...
Lorna, 1,3, and 5 are what the following cakes (and cookies) were SUPPOSED to look like.
Poor Tink! Her neurofibromatosis is really getting out of hand.
Last one....I can't even...beyond words...to think bakers let things like this leave their store...at first I thought was made from Krispie treats...she has a certain uh...texture to her
That last one looks like Celebi from Pokemon!
The Tinkerbell cake turned into a Tammy Faye Baker corpse cake. I don't know if she's back from the dead or just still dead from the looks of it but those eyes.... those eyes are that of the undead!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
You sure that Tinkerbell isn't trying to lure people in to eat them? Eeeeek scary as heck that one lol.
Is Tinkerbell made of shredded hashbrowns??
I laughed so hard at Tinkerbell that I cried like the unicorn.
Oh crapola - my 8year old son wants me to make that unicorn cake for his birthday next week. I thought ‘how wrong can it go?’ ....now I know
Tink is here to eat your soul. I’m sure this was the face Wendy saw at least once.
@Jules:
Or maybe Freddy Krueger and a topographical map of Utah? An avocado and a more disgusting, older avocado? Perhaps that last cake should star in its own horror movies.
WHY would the last decorator use a small tip?! That's so obviously piped out using a small writing tip and they didn't even bother smoothing it over. Which of course creates that weird texture! Yikes!
It's like some bakers didn't even try. Or care.
Tink's a grinch! A female grinch! And yellow. Also evil (er, more evil?). Creepy clown cookies. If they had used pink icing instead of red they still would have been awful but maybe not as clownish? The unicorn is just crying over the other two...
#6 If Disney bought the rights to "The Mask" franchise....
I literally laughed out loud at cakes 2 and 3.
Wow! Three gems!
The Tinkerbell cake...I'm so glad you zoomed in. I was curious about how the baker did her nose...it's just sort of a hole in the squiggles of ramen noodle frosting. I wonder if it was intentional or a happy accident.
Tink with the strawberries looks to me like she was sculpted out of mayonnaise. Also- what happened to her fingers? They look like talons. Jay Leno’s chin doesn’t look good on Abby Cadabby!
How hard can it really be to copy a drawing?? I mean really?? That last cake looked like the abominable snowman.
If you're just looking at the pictures and not reading any of the commentary, you are missing at least half the entertainment value of this website.
