Cakes I - phone order

, ,

Did you ever order a cake for a special occasion? No? Me neither - I'd rather bake them myself.

But if you should ever want to order a cake over the phone, you better make sure that the guy who takes the order, understands what you mean.

Imagine that you want your cake to look like this:


So, you grab the phone, and order:


The cake baker thinks that it's an odd request, but he does exactly what he thinks he is told.
Imagine how you'd react when you come to pick up your cake, and this is the cake you get:


:lol:

Dacotah 15. October 2009, 03:14

:lol:

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 03:14

There sure is. :lol:

Dacotah 15. October 2009, 03:19

How much you want to bet the person that opened the cake box and saw this dropped it or fainted?
:D

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 03:20

I would have been speechless. At least for a moment. :D

Dacotah 15. October 2009, 03:22

:D
I think that shade of purple for a eye color would be great to have.

Moesring 15. October 2009, 03:23

You're up early, aren't you, Kitten?
I didn't expect anything for an hour or so. awww

Personally, I prefer the bottom cake. :left:

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 03:26

@ Carol ~ It would make people stare, that's for sure! :D

@ Moe ~ Yes, I'm up early. I did way too much thinking in bed and didn't have any rest, so there...
Isn't the eye colour on that cake kinda familiar? :left:
And where have you been????

Dacotah 15. October 2009, 03:28

:D

Moesring 15. October 2009, 03:29

Isn't the eye colour on that cake kinda familiar?

That's probably why I prefer it. :yes:

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 03:30

Yeah, probably. :smile:
Do you still don't want a reply to that PM you sent a while ago???

garlingmatthews 15. October 2009, 03:54

The accidental cake is cool. The details are a tad lost on my mobile, though.

Hermitess 15. October 2009, 04:44

Wow, well it matches the description. :lol:

I wonder what flavor?

ellinidata 15. October 2009, 04:53

ahahahahahahhahhahahaha :lol: :lol: :lol: in a perfect translation by an immigrant :D the cake was made to perfection!!!! w00t! thanks for the laughs!
now I am going to bed still smiling!!

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 05:20

@ Gavin ~ I'd eat either of them. :yes: Take another look when you're on your ... ummm... Mac (?) - it's worth it. :up:

@ Hermitess ~ From the look of the colours, I'd say it probably tastes of ... blueberries. :left: :yes:

@ Angeliki ~ A good laugh before bedtime is good for the soul. :happy:
Sleep tight. :heart:


rose-marie 15. October 2009, 07:15

I guess I'm the only one who thought of those kind of tears too then... :left: awww

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 07:16

No, I did too. In fact, I would have been confused over that order too. :o:

rose-marie 15. October 2009, 07:17

Ah, that feels better :happy: :wink:

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 07:19

I'm so glad that my ignorance can make anybody feel better. :lol: :lol:

KYren 15. October 2009, 08:02

:chef: I love that cake. In fact, I took the order and prepared that cake to give the customer an eye-popping surprise.

Moesring 15. October 2009, 08:29

I'm the only one who thought of those kind of tears

And so you should. The ones on the top cake are spelt tiers. It's the customer's fault for spelling it incorrectly. :wink::yes:

garlingmatthews 15. October 2009, 08:32

Wow, cool. I like the mistake cake better :smile:

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 08:35

@ Kiran ~ You are so kind! :D

@ Moe ~ Now I just got a little bit wiser as well. :up:

@ Gavin ~ I like them both! :yes:

Spaggyj 15. October 2009, 08:54

:lol: I actually think the bottom one's cooler p:

Furie 15. October 2009, 09:26

Excellent post today Tils! :D

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 09:38

@ Kimmie ~ It's more fun, and much more purple. :D

@ Mik ~ Whoa... It's the first time you call one of my posts excellent! :eyes: :impressed: :queen:

darkesthour 15. October 2009, 09:39

Eye see a very nice cake there :smile:

Furie 15. October 2009, 09:54

It's hard to compliment you when you're so skittish and dodge the compliments. I figure if you get used to them then my compliment shaped missile will be easier to aim. :up:

darkesthour 15. October 2009, 10:04

Beware of Greeks bearing gifts...

clean 15. October 2009, 10:22

I see what you did there ... :wink:

Furie 15. October 2009, 10:48

*has a Rolf Harris moment*
Can you tell what it is yet?

darkesthour 15. October 2009, 10:49

Gotta be the big painting...

Have a great Day you all!

darkesthour 15. October 2009, 11:14

4 hours... lucky.. :lol:

jekav 15. October 2009, 14:42

:lol:
I love that cake! Although I wouldn't want to eat the eye :yuck:

Suntana 15. October 2009, 16:36

So, in cake-baking terminology, what IS "piping?"
Would it be the columns on the tiers?

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 16:57

@ DH ~ Suuuure you do! :lol:

@ Mik ~ Just bring on the compliments - but only the ones you really mean. :wink:

@ David ~ Nooo, really??? :left:


@ Angeliki ~ Only four hours? That's exactly what I got this night as well, and that felt as way too little. awww

@ Jurjen ~ I'd eat it. I'd even lick it first! P:

@ Sunny ~ Hiya, busy bee! I think the piping is the doodles on the side of the cake. :up:

gross! :yuck:

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 17:03

No it's not. It's clever: That way I make sure that nobody else wants it! :yes:

Hermitess 15. October 2009, 17:33

*wonders if the eye is made of all icing*

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 17:34

Would you lick it too if it was? :left:

Hermitess 15. October 2009, 17:36

Uh YEAH, I'd probably stick my finger in it. :D I'm a total buttercream icing whore. :chef:

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 17:43

Mmmmm :yum:

I'm feeling a bit hungry now! :chef:

Moirahall 15. October 2009, 19:37

Bet they taste good mmm yummy yummy :smile: :D





he he I`m getting carried away with the pics now :love: :heart:

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 19:47

It's good to learn something new, Moira. :happy:

Suntana 15. October 2009, 19:52

Well then they should have called the piping ... Doodle Trim.

Now who would be stupid enough to order a cake for an important occasion over the phone? You would be asking for it if you did.

Zaphira 15. October 2009, 19:54

You've got a point. The funny thing is that the dude got exactly what he asked for. :D

Moirahall 15. October 2009, 19:56

Very true Suntana. You would never leave something as important as that to a phone call...That would be silly. But on the other hand some folks are silly. So who knows :rolleyes: :smile:

I`m loving it Zaphira, learning new things about opera every day - better than silly bebo :rolleyes: :smile:

Furie 15. October 2009, 20:11

I've never given a compliment I didn't mean, but I've had plenty of people take compliments I haven't actually said.

ellinidata 15. October 2009, 21:21

I am so looking forward to the II & III & IV & V :lol:
