@mychemicalrelapse you, are extremely cool(:
i love wedding cakes becuase they all look so beautiful…but honestly. its just a cake! most of the time, when you’ve reached the part of your wedding reception where you cut the damn thing, everyone is too pissed to care what it looks like anyway. I’d rather just have a massive chocolate cake. at least it will taste awesome.
It does not look like a wedding cake I’s pretty though.
Shane Dilk few years ago, two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later, the babysitter was calling to ask if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids’ room, the father said,”Take the kids and get out of the house. We’ll call the police, we don’t have a clown statue.” The “clown statue” is really a killer that escap……………ed from jail.(true story)If you don’t post this letter on to 10 pagess tonight, the clown will be in your bed at 3:00 am with a chainsaw in his hand
yeah i mean the husband would be like
ok honey wtf is that pink thing?
obviously
how do you make the cake like this? Its like not one level? thanx
i like howdini’s cake
The tails pretty much form as you’re applying the dots no matter how hard you try to avoid them, but what you can do is wait a little bit until the icing “crusts” over and tamp them down with your finger. Same goes for the points that sometimes form when you’re writing, etc.
i personaly think the dots would look better if you didnt put a tail on them, just make them real dots, and not drops
its cute if it was for a little girls birthday pary but who wants to feed that many screaming kids… and plus i think we all know how to put polka dots on something lol sheesh do we look like idiots lmao
i think she was doing a tutorial on different options that you can do
what the ugly cake
WOW
that is ugly!
yeah i saw that too
I don’t like the shape of those wedding cakes..
This one is a little better than a few of the others… at least I can see how the angle of the bag relates to what she’s actually doing, rather than AFTER it’s done and she spins it around.
I agree, but this was probably a cake for teaching. They most likely used it to show how to do each border.
Unless they really did do it on purpose, in which case… meh. :
cool : – )
she really thinks she is great

I think it is odd… that the rim of icing between the top tier and middle tier.. it isn’t all from one nozzle. Some of it is scalloped and other is regular beads,.. It looks like a mistake to me.. Usually you keep the same pattern when doing the rim
