Er...
Elephant cupcakes?

Glass of wine? (Please?)

Arg.
C'mon, bakers, it's not like I'm asking for a star performance...
;)
OH COME ON.
Tell ya what, guys, just slap down a few celebratory balloons, and we'll call it a day.

Oooh, festive.

Nope.

NOPE.

Seriously?

AND THAT'S A DAY.

I celebrate that humans come in all shades of glorious color, but if one's "elephant" is exhibiting that particular striped configuration, I'd get it to a veterinarian, if you know what I mean.
BTW, I would have thought a couple of 'Puffs like yourselves would recognize a quidditch pitch when they saw it displayed on a white cake with green borders.
So. Many. Terrible. Balloons! Also, *ix-nay. Because the word being turned into pig latin is "nix". :)
1) I don't care about its beak. What's that white stuff lower down? An umbilical cord? Is it taking a leak? And if it is, shouldn't it rainbow-colored?
2) I guess this one is splattered on the windshield.
3) How do you go from poo-wang turkeys to poo-wang elephants?
4) Looks like a couple of parking meters. I guess you have to put a quarter in to get a slice of cake.
5) One fish, two fish, red fish, blue starfish.
6) It's either dog poo in the grass, or some strange one celled creature.
7) Mirror, mirror, on the cake, which baker is the biggest flake?
8) Sperm that need to go on a diet?
9) Light bulbs at a party? Ghosts in blue jeans after a rainbow explosion?
10) The Martians have landed! It's the War of the Worlds!
Ooohhhh!!! Look at the jellyfish on that last cake! :)
I think the first "balloons" are an inverted plant.
Seriously, folks....#5 down---.Will ANY of you ADMIT to "seeing" ELVIS (Yes, Pelvis himself..).in the jumpsuit?
I'll wait.
=^-.-^=
Are those blue and white things supposed to be flies? How festive.
All I could think of is "the balls have eyes..."
I'm sensing a elephant theme for my 12-year-old sons next birthday. awkward, right?
Are those french-style green beens hanging from the penis balloon?
What in gards name is that white cream stuff coming out of the nether region of the unicorn?!?!?!?
I just cant get over the elephants. They are not the worst looking. But Im telling you, if you eat one, purple, green, and black poo for a long, long time!
The last: Do those cotton balls have diarrhea? Also, Stefani, icks-nay, because ick, get it? I'm stealing that one.
at least they sepelled everything right, which is more than I can say about my commment
#6 - an excellent representation of a squid. I don't know why the cookie wasn't frosted sea-foam green. Or ocean blue.
And I am laughing at what they consider balloons actually look like. I can't stop laughing actually I think I am scaring my hubby lol.
I recently had a birthday, and my mom's husband ordered my cake. He asked for "cheerful decorations," so, of course, I got the balloons with the white curly "strings," and now I will never live down "My Sperm Cake of 2019."
When I turned 60.
I'm wondering if that cookie isn't supposed to be representing a parched landscape, and that's supposed to be some sort of caudiciform (say that 5 time real fast) plant, and we're actually just looking at it upside down? Too literal? Nah, it's probably brown ballons on green ribbons. Sorta. Maybe not. I've got nothing.
Poo carrots?
