Were Square Pans Too Much to Ask?

This is why you need to visit Cakewrecks:

When this is requested...



















And THIS is what the bakery gives you...














As of this writing, the bride is still in therapy from the meltdown this caused.  Don't screw with brides man, they take that whole "I've dreamed of this day since I was a little girl..." delusional shit real serious. Their emotional state is precarious. I think there should be a classification on the mental illness 'Bride-To-Be' disorder in the DSMv4, with 'Bridezilla-ism' as a subcategory. It's a slippery slope from the former to the latter as I understand. 

Regardless, my withered, black, covetous unmarried heart feels sorry for this woman.  I wonder if their wedding banns in the local paper was followed by the item "Shooter Opens Fire in Local Bakery."

  1. If she did kill the cake decorator, it would be justifiable. That is one wretched looking cake! I think I could've done a better job with it, and I'm far from a professional. Poor lady. As if getting married wasn't enough stress just in and of itself!

  2. Did it come with the giant chunk missing? This is why I served gummy bears and beef jerky at my wedding.

  3. Thanks for that Cake Wrecks link - I have just spent the last 45 minutes shouting with laughter at the cakes on it and the comments made about them.

  4. My last wedding was a low key affair, and I got my cake at Safeway... those big blobs of icing on the cake in the pic, THAT'S what my cake looked like... big, light blue blobs on my white two tier cake. I was SOOOO upset! But, I took a serated edged knife and cut them off and did this really cool bleeding effect into the white. I did it in 10 minutes, just before the wedding, lol... and it worked out PERFECT!

  5. I agree that the Cake Wrecks link is hilarious. I love the "Literal LOLS." Like "Happy Birthday Mom slash Aunt" instead of Mom/Aunt.

    You know, if I got a cake like that, I'd probably keep it just for the laughs.

    Diva: Anyone who can successfully alter their wedding cake mere minutes before the ceremony should be up for some kind of lifetime achievement award. My only major wedding triumph (other than getting completely shitfaced) was realizing that the horses hadn't been fed, yet, and then quietly slumbing away from the elegant reception we were hosting in our driveway to throw some hay over the fence (in full bridal gear, of course).

  6. Uh, that should be "stumbling away."
