Well, Rats

It's Rodent Awareness Week, minions, so gather 'round while I'll spin you a tail of wreckage.

Now, you might think it'd be hard to find rodent cakes, but no.

THEY'RE OUT THERE.

(See? I'm raising awareness!)

Though some bakers are a little fuzzy on the concept:

If you turn your head to the side this kind of looks like a black-and-white turkey cake pooping out a candy corn.

Then again, it's 3AM here and I'm wide awake, so maybe that's the insomnia talking.

Or maybe I'm dreaming? Is this a dream?

The rat cake worshipping a chunk of cheese points to "yes."

Hang on, now the cheese is a Christmas tree... decorated with tadpoles?

And this guy just offered me a cigar:

Ok, we're definitely in Bad-Pizza-Dream territory, minions. I better get out of here before I show up to my 8th grade Biology quiz naked.

ACK!

TOO LATE:

Thank goodness this class has aprons. And forks.

Oh man, I just grossed MYSELF out.

 

 Well, my friends who may or may not be actually reading this, I hope you've found this educational.

 Because if not, I could give a rat's ass.

A really ADORABLE rat's ass.

(The baker sent it in herself, because she's awesome like that.)


Thanks to Courtney M., Amanda G., April F., Rachel L., Monica I., Alison M., & Holly S. of Two Cousins Bakery for putting every baby butt cake out there to shame. TO SHAME I SAY.

And if you want to keep the Rodent Awareness celebration going, how about a good Terry Pratchett read?

The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents
