Vicky?!?





UPDATE: YES!! Vicky the bride has spoken!!! Check the Comments section for her assurances of this cake's validity. (You'll have to scroll waaaay down; you guys are certainly letting your voices be heard on this one, aren't you?)





If you guys thought the first wedding disaster cake was bad, hold on to your pantaloons.Alright, let's set the scene: here's what the bride asked for, only in all white with minor green accents.Now, I would tell you to take a moment to prepare yourselves for the horror you're about to witness, but frankly no amount of time would be adequate. So just go ahead and scroll down now.I'll give you a moment.[whistling]Back in your seat now? Good. Because believe it or not, there's more. Aw yeah.1) The top tier still had thepan under it.2) The cake "base" is a metal sign.3) I swear I am not making this up., so the bottom levels are covered with a fondant lumpier than the Bearded Lady's thighs, and the top tier is the wrong shape and isn't even iced completely. I see all that, and yet you know what the funniest bit to me is? Those green lines up the sides, which I can only assume are attempts at "ribbons": not only are they as unlike ribbons as icing can possibly get, but they don't even line up! Somehow that last bit of lunacy just sends me over the edge.(This post is also the first in a new category: Missed Marks. Because nothing is quite soas when you see what it wasto look like.)Now like you, I'm sure, I was highly skeptical about this being a "professional" cake. However, the e-mail came from the bride herself, and she seemed outraged enough to be telling the truth. (Yes, a replacement cake was procured at the eleventh hour.) I can only assume the icing and generic tips in the photo were purchased to try and "fix" the cake after it was picked up. In fact, Vicky C., if you're reading this, you might want to chime in on the Comments section now, just to back me up here.[crickets chirping]Vicky? Er, Vicky,now, this isn't funny.[crickets still chirping]Seriously, Vicky: tell the people I'm telling the truth. Vicky? Er...Vicky?
