Perhaps they assumed guests would be so horrified by the cake that they wouln't look long enough to notice? Or perhaps it's simply proof that this paticular wreckerator doesn't follow ANYONE'S instructions.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03174751378392180109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1932214040062195180.post-86609767887631709842009-11-13T07:26:32.911-05:002009-11-13T07:26:32.911-05:00The last cake looks like they just glopped whipped...The last cake looks like they just glopped whipped cream all over it instead of frosting, and even if it's not, the thought of it really is making my stomach heave :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1932214040062195180.post-53994779882736724352009-11-13T03:48:54.114-05:002009-11-13T03:48:54.114-05:00Seed pods on a cake?

One of the groomsmen walked by the gazebo and bumped the 1/4 sheet cake that we had set aside while we cut the other cake. It landed in the bark dust. We picked it up and brushed of the big pieces. When we finally had to cut into the sheet cake, we started telling people it was chocolate sprinkles....posey46https://www.blogger.com/profile/16894269424711872735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1932214040062195180.post-11339259765587470792009-11-12T15:34:59.563-05:002009-11-12T15:34:59.563-05:00Now I know why my marriage ended in a divorce!

As I look at these cakes, there are obvious mistakes but some of these are just so poorly done I have a hard time believing they are proffessional. After all, who would accept it in that condition and pay for it? I can understand damage during transport or melting frosting due to humidity but todays didn't appear to be suffering from that.

I saw it last night and nearly spit my juice out all over my poor boyfriend. It features a guy filming with his new Flip camera, and he films a picture of a gorgeous wedding cake and says something like "This is a picture of the cake we ordered," then pans over to a HIDEOUS wreck, and says "This is what we got," then pans over to his fiance who looks beyond pissed/miserable. Absolutely Wrecktastic.

It's just a French vanilla box mix with extra vanilla added, topped by a quick plop-n-spread of Alton Brown's ganache recipe (albeit with slightly darker chocolate because my hubby and I like it that way).<br /><br />We celebrate the relative ugliness of this cake. I do not worry about levelling or if the upper layer forces a bit of ganache out the side to create that ripple-look. It is a cake of freedom from worry about aesthetics.<br /><br />But I must say, even my ugliest ugly cake is far and away a better, smoother icing job than any of these. And I'm just a hobbyist, so it's just being eaten at home in private!<br /><br />WTF IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?! Who the hell sells a cake that looks that horrid?
