Life is full of aspirations – if we’re lucky, our expectations align with reality, and we’re exempt from disappointment. But every so often, even if we try our hardest, expectations have a way of letting us down.
This cake, for example, is one of those expectations turned into a harsh reality. We’re sure it’s delicious, even if it looks less than perfect!
The Snow Queen
Elsa's giving us attitude, and we're not sure how we feel about it. This cake could have been salvaged; in fact, it may have even been somewhat Elsa-like, if it wasn't for the fact that her eyes were so far apart.
We're going to call this the Wallmart version of the Elsa cake - it isn't the worst, but it isn't the best.
Twelve Letters
The person asked to make this cake was given strict instructions - write "happy birthday, boy" only using twelve letters. They did what anyone would do - they merged two words into one, and voila!
The final product is "Happy Birtboy." Listen, it isn't the worst idea; in fact, we may start using this word daily! Birtboy has a nice ring to it!
Teddy 2? Shrek 2?
Is Teddy turning two? Is this a "Shrek 2" birthday cake? Did someone ask for a "Ted" (the ill-mannered animated teddy bear) cake? Though we do understand why someone could get Ted and Shrek confused, we want to understand the rationale behind this cake.
The confused mastermind behind this cake turned the grumpy ogre into a pretty friendly guy! Look at him; he's smiling at us!
Meta-Cake
Some bakeries ask you to send a picture of your desired cake, which is pretty considerate when you think of all the custom cake orders that get placed a day. What this family got was the picture they sent in printed ON a cake.
We call this a meta-birthday bash. Quick! Change the party theme to "Inception!"
