Do You Believe In Mircles?

I call this one, "But not today."

 

"Hey, why does your koi fish have ears?"

"That's not a koi! Didn't you seee what I wrote on the cake board?"

"Ohhhhhh!

".... but it still looks like a koi fish."

 

The most hilarious butchering of "You're six!" I've ever seen:

Gesundheit.

 

And finally, these graduation wrecks just keep getting better, you guys:

I'd congratulate the bakers, but I'm afraid it would only confuse them.

Our most sincere congartion to Janet N., Kelly V., Callie C., & Gina B.

Artscape "Magnolia" Window Film

This stained glass film is AMAZEBALLS, minions. It's less than $20 a roll (we used 2), easy to install with a squeegee and water, and looks incredibly convincing, even up close.

That was John installing ours about seven years ago, and it's still going strong, though looking at these photos I can see the Florida sun has faded it to a slightly more blue/purple tone. It makes me ridiculously happy walking into our dark back room during the day, and seeing these doors glowing with color. Highly recommend for any windows or doors where you want extra privacy or prettiness.

In Which We Try To Come Up With New Ways To Say "Nailed It"

The baker swore she could recreate this Mad Hatter cake:

And yet...

To quote Aimee, "Oh, and the cake was burnt." 
Well, somebody got burned, am I right?! HEYO! High five!

Anyone?

Don't leave me hanging...

Fine.

 

Amber wanted this Mickey Mouse cake for a second birthday party:

Trouble is, she asked the baker to make it out of buttercream instead of fondant, which we all know would require a magic wardrobe, 3 fairies, and a photo of the Loch Ness Monster doing the Macarena.

 

Hey, wouldn't it be hilarious if I showed you guys a really amazing cake right now?

Yeah, that would've been funny.

To keep things simple, Cheryl ordered the stock Hello Kitty design off the bakery's website, which looks like this:

 

You know how they say, "a picture is worth a thousand words?"

Well, in this case, a picture of a picture of a cake on a cake is worth about thirty bucks.

GOOD TO KNOW.

 

And finally, Angela writes, "This is what I wanted for the groom's cake..."

"...but in the color scheme of his drums, which is a green fade to lighter green with sparkles, like this:"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA... coughcoughcough... cough...

 

Oh. You were being serious? No, yeah, sure. That's tooootally gonna happen.

Well, look on the bright side, Angela; at least the baker didn't jam glow sticks into it like on your wedding cake. (Last one.) (Ahhh, good times.)

 

Thanks to Aimee R., Amber W., Cheryl S., & Angela for drumming up some new lolz.
