"Hey everybody, thish cake ish from Holland. Ishn't that veird?"

Monday, February 23, 2009

Brace yourself, my friends, for what you're about to see may haunt your dreams for the rest of your natural lives, and will most certainly turn you off of acrylic nails.


Ready?


Here it comes...


Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the baby shower, they went and added...

The DREADED MANICURED ALIEN HAND OF DOOM!!!

[drawn-out scream]

Ok, what's worse: the bone-white skin pallor, popped-out belly button that looks like the tied-off end of a balloon, or the fact that Thing-ette there seems to be sucking the life-force out of Octo-Mom Wraith-style?

Now, I have pudgy little Hobbit hands, so my basis of reference is off: tell me, is that hand as disproportionally gargantuan as I think it is?

Kevin V., you musht be toight like a toyger*. Schmoke and a pancake?

*Ok, so the pop-culture references got a little out of hand** in this post. Sorry.

**Get it? Out of
hand? Booyah!

It looks like a zombie hand.

And the belly button looks like a condom.

That hand is creepy but well made. Acrylic nails, dirty dirty dirty.

Would you give the expectant mom a piece of cake? Or not, to save herself from herself. "Fazaa can you hear me?"

That is just...disturbing.

Alexandra said...

Hey, remember that the Wraith suck life force from the chest area - not always the heart, but close enough.

But then it could be doing that to the baby inside, which would be very creepy.

yes, I'm thinking about this too hard, and yes, I'm also a geek!

LMAO! The title of the post made me cackle then reading the post made me chortle. You rock.

P.S. Having the hands of a toddler myself, seeing those cruella deville hands on that cake of terror have scarred me.

Acid Zebra said...

On behalf of the Dutch everywhere I would like to state that thankfully I have never seen such a hand on any Dutch (or other) woman, nor does Austin Power's supposed persiflage of the Dutch hit in any way on the commonly understood stereotypes of the Dutch.

I mean 'schmoke and a pancake'? WTF is that about? Is it too much to ask that people make jokes about the Dutch which actually make sense? Dutch wife, yes, going Dutch, yes, Dutch courage, yes, pass the Dutch, thanks. All these things in some way relate to supposed Dutch culture and/or habits.

Schmoke and a pancake? What?

Yours truly,
A Confused Nederlander.

I also have hobbit hands, so this hand is also terrifying to me. But perhaps somebody with a more neutral frame of reference can enlighten us. I have a hunch, though, that those nails are enough to scare people of all hand sizes.

Sari Everna said...

*twitch*

I think what really gets me is the overall sense of creepy I get... this cake is messed up.

The hand itself is not so much out of proportion as the fingers are looong. And kind of bony looking. And pretty much alien.

But, seriously, WTFnails!?

you didn't even mention the scary things going on underneath that green cloth thing.

So wrong.... on so many levels...

Are you sure it's from Holland? I think it looks more like a French flag. The Dutch flag has horizontal stripes; the French flag has vertical stripes.

You didn't even address the fact that the woman is nipping out. And yes, those fingers are scary weird.

Yikes. Yikes. Aaaaaand...yikes.

That's horrfying!

And it's made all the better by the fact that you said, "Booyah."

Personally I find the freakin' nipples on these cakes to be weirder. but I might not be seeing right.

I think the fingers being long and thin are very elegant, pianist like fingers. The only problem I have are the freakishly long nails and the ugly manicure, oh and the color of the skin.

Were the nipples in there really necessary?

What I want to know is... what person gets their alien hands manicured in that way? It looks like a flag.

Maybe when the belly of the cake is cut the little tyke will come out, or milk will spurt when the top half is cut. Weird. The hand is gruesome too. Very weird.

So much to love about this cake, really.
Seriously, the mom to be is wearing a belly shirt, has huge boobs, hard nips, and a scary manicure. Obviously, the expectant mom is a stripper.
As for the prominent nips....

No Jen, you aren't crazy - I was blessed with long fingers, and even if I had 4 inch acrylic nails of Doom, I still could never wrap my hand around my pregnant belly like that. Methinks they are some kind of Dutch tentacle-hands, come up from somewhere in the canals.

BTW, my family is Dutch :)

Actually, to me, it kind of makes me think of Twilight..Bella. In the last book..pregnant..baby sucking the life out of her..though I don't think Bella would get her nails done like that! Plus, she wasn't a vampire yet when was pregnant, so wouldn't be that pale yet..

Yes, my mind is weird, lol! I wouldn't ever make a cake or eat a cake like this though!

My grandpa played basketball so I've got his huge hands, no seriously my fingers are as long as my husbands (thought still feminine). So I'm in a good position to say yep that is frekishly out of proportion.

After viewing the various maternity cakes on your blog, I am leaning toward the good old days when baby bumps were concealed by modest clothing, rather than clingy t-shirts and yoga pants! Also, breasts were harnessed in modest brassieres!This cake left me nauseous.

All I can think of is the many times I have heard pregnant women shriek, "Don't touch my belly!" And now you have someone with alien hands and a bad manicure sneaking up from behind.

But somebody had to lift the shirt and show off that condom-shaped belly-button. So where's the other creepy hand?

What is with people who think pregnant body parts make an attractive cake for a party? Come on, people. What ever happened to nice round or square cakes with pastel "baby" colors (or even spoingy primary colors). I'd even settle for the baby carriage or the umbrella--a cabbage patch or a stork shaped cake even, but leave the body parts to the hospital, please.
Yeah, I know, I'm old and cranky. But I still get invited to baby showers.

Ok yes the hand seems long and very thin. The belly button is yucky.
I don't understand the giant nipples showing through her shirt! I don't commonly see this on pregnant women. I can't say anything about the skin color because I am actually that color.

This wreck is fantastically funny, as is your commentary (which is always hilarious), so I'll keep the nit-picking short: this is the French flag, not the Dutch one. They both contain the same colours but the way they are arranged on the nails for someone looking at it from our perspective (and even if you go towards the wrist), meaning vertically and in the order blue, white, red, is French. Still, I love the Austin Power reference, being a huge freakin' filmgeek myself.

Cheers!

Anonymous said...

The Dutch lady is right . . . it is the flag of France on the background as well as on the nails of that ginormous hand! What really creeps me out is the notion of performing a baby shower cake c-section. Do you want that piece or a chunk of breast (with or without nipple)? Eeeeewwww!

Unknown said...

my questions is why do they always feel the need to put little nipple bumps on the breasts of these cakes. do the women they are modeling these cakes after (aside from having ridiculously large stomachs and out of proportion appendages) not ever wear bras??

@ Anonymous 11:12: I actually think the "severed" part of the pregnant torso cakes is by far the creepiest part. The original purple one was actually kind of pretty IMO, but YOU ARE STILL EATING WOMEN'S BODY PARTS. Ick. I love cake and will usually eat even the crappiest most artificial supermarket variety (on the theory that some cake is better than no cake), but I would be hard pressed to actually consume any part of the torso shower cakes.

Anonymous said...

Eh, just a Wilton Mickey pan changed a bit. My wife decorated cakes for many, many years so I've seen a lot of adaptation.

That is not to say this is a great cake. I find it bizarre, simply as a total theme type cake, and the fingers are proportionate to the hand, *but* the hand is friggin huge compared to the body size.

That said, though, I have no problem with eating it. It's a cake. "yeah, I'll have the left boob, minus the nipple (wouldn't want to be a glutton) and the middle finger". Mmmmm

How about the fact that there appear to be NIPPLES on the boobies? BLECH!

This is the first time I've felt compelled to comment.

Yes, that hand is all out of proportion. The index finger is longer than the middle finger, and it's almost like there's an extra knuckle in them all. There are a few things wrong with that hand.

Now, I have a vague guess why the belly button looks like a balloon, and that's because my mom (only a semi-professional cake decorator) made a baby shower cake with a big pregnant lady once. We actually stuffed a little toy animal inside a balloon, and blew it up, then iced over it to be the belly. That way the mom-to-be got to "deliver" the baby. Mom used the neck of the balloon for the belly button, but she iced it a lot better, made it look more natural.

Why is the belly button so... shiny?

I hope there's one of those baby cakes on the inside. Wouldn't that be a fun surprise for the person cutting the cake? Cutting a cake or a c-section, you decide.

Okay, I had to scroll down a bit, but I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed the huge nipples on that thing.

Though the hand is definitely alien-caliber creepy...

.. and it looks like the bakery was very cold that day as well know what I mean?

Someone commented that the cake reminded them of Bella's pregnancy from Twilight. I thought of the same thing when I first saw this cake...

But really, it is frighteningly beyond unappetizing!

Tammy said...

Was it cold in the bakery when they frosted the cake???

Pam Fillin said...

is it me or does that hand have two thumbs? on on the belly and one in her shirt?

Just once I'd like to see the "carnage" (as my hubby refers to what's left on the plate/table, etc from any gathering) from one of these wrecks.

You think that was red velvet cake in there? i might have a problem if I was the recipient of a cake as freakishly *shudder*...words escape me.

wv-orkult...looks like demon handed mama was dealing in the orkult. ;)

That is a very patriotic cake... except it is the French flag, not the Dutch flag (which is horizontal, the red on top and the blue on the bottom).

I have seen the model for this cake! The Labor and delivery nurse I had for my first delivery -she scratched me to bits! I am a nurse now and strong believer that RNs should not have acrylics! lol

Amy said...

I have what people might call "freakishly long" fingers, so to me....that hand *almost* looks normal! LOL The nails...nasty! The nipples...come on! All in all........I think I'll pass on this cake!

The only thing that would make this cake more wrecktacular would be if it was a red velvet cake....

**snickering**

I forgot to mention. I have size 9 hands. A nine inch span from the tip of my thumb to the tip of my pinkie. That's not counting my artificial nails (clean unpolished ones). Big bewbs too. Normal inney belly button though. I empathize with the cake but it's still weird.

Big hands will come in handy (no pun intended) when FHOTD takes it's show on the road with the "Whack an Asshat" road trip.

wv. sating...just checking in before work, sating my appetite for cake wrecks.

*is Dutch*

What's up with the Sean Connery impression?

And, oh God, there is just no good way to incorporate pregnancy in a cake. rew

Kelly said...

I have long fingers. But I don't add giant acrylic nails to extend them. I have a friend who has really long fingers, longer than mine. Even so, I think this hand is disproportionately long in comparison to the torso. Just sayin'.

This is the craziest cake. I would NEVER want a piece!

Hahaha Gold Member!!! The best part is when John Travolata portrayed him for a few minutes!

Leah McNally said...

brings those R Crumb cartoons to mind- the ones about his fantasy for a voluptous woman without a head. The best part- the wet t-shirt contest nipples LOL.

way to rock the 'wraith', yo.

bilsa.

Erin said...

I love it how they took the time to add the perky nipples, because you know pregnant normally have perky nipples

I think I'm more concerned that someone made cake boobs...and what a rack.

My god! It's like Voldemort's hand......if Voldemort was a drag queen.

OK, I can't be the first to notice this....but NO COMMENT on the...er...obvious....er....chest thing?

Seriously, was this an icecream cake (har har) because someone sure looks cold!

heartafire said...

Did anyone happen to notice the extra digit UNDERNEAT the green shirt near the left (ahem) breast?

I really think the only thing that could make this cake creepier would be if the stomach were really a big giant water balloon with a little doll inside, and it was iced-over, and then when they performed the C-section, the "water" would actually break, and the baby would sort of float out through the incision.

(Oh, no....thank YOU, I've really enjoyed it, folks...be good to your servers, I'll be here all week)

um not only does the belly button look like that thing you stick in a turkey to let you know when its done, and not to mention the alien like hands that might be used to probe humans, but did anyone else notice the erect nipples??!!
