That cake definitely looks evil!! I’ve had my fair share of failed cake attempts. Tho nothing overly frightening! Usually it’s when I try to use rolled icing – disaster. So now I don’t! I stick to buttercream icing and decorate with lollies or sprinkles. But kids are kids and will love a cake made for them. (Unless it’s a mega fail in which case start over or buy a supermarket cake!)

That looks pretty awful. Is it an icecream cake?

I always make my kids cakes. Haven’t attempted any different styles then a plain round cake haha

I hired a cake tin that was a rabbit, the cake turned out amazing, it was the icing that let me down. I tried to do a lovely pale blue, unfortunately by the time I had finished mixing the colours it turned out a very dirty looking grey blue colour. Needless to say there was quite a bit left at the end of the party.

That cake is hilarious. I bet it tasted good though.

If it tastes good kids don’t care what it looks like just say there’s a new species of unicorn.

Haha, gold. Just a Mum fail but a funny one.

Yep, it’s a shocker, but I agree she deserves credit for effort.

That’s why I don’t make cakes for my kids and always buy them!

Alomst like any cake i made ????????????

Thank heavens my children always wanted choux pastry filled with cream.

I’m not a great cake maker, but I think even I could’ve got this cake to look more like a unicorn then this person

It may not look the same as the original picture but good on her for giving it a go. I’d never attempt it. I’ve made a boom box, a princess bed, a ufo, a football boot and even a hockey field. They were simple compared to this unicorn. I love it and I’m sure the family did as well.

LOL that is pretty scary looking, but I have had a few that haven’t looked so great either- maybe not quite as bad as that one though!

Good on you for having a go!

I’m not a cake maker so I applaud anyone who gives it a go. As long as it tastes good…

Looks like a cat lol
At least she had a crack. It’s not easy

Definitely can relate I tried making a swiss roll and for some reason it turned out more like a crepe lol So understand how she is feeling.
At least she can sit back and laugh about it.

At least the lady tried. There are plenty who have never baked a cake, slice, biscuits or scones.
We have had failures with icing that simply would not thicken. I can’t remember how Mum salvaged it now but everybody at the party commented about it and wanted the recipe.

Well done to her for at least having a go! Plus, the proof of the pudding is in the eating …..
