I can't believe someone made this cake. I wonder how much it cost. I can't put shrink the picture so here's the link.

Yikes. That cake is unbelievable. Geez.

I've gotten this in email twice so far this week! lol It's funny how things get around so fast.

Talented but I would feel ooky cutting into that....eeek!

WOW!! Unbelievable. Wonder how many hours that took?

That's unbelieveable! Someone is very talented! I'm with Ironbaker though-- If I were the bride, I wouldn't want to see myself get all cut up and eaten!

Wow! That is talented! I wouldn't be able to cut that!!! Maybe they just saved the top part? The body...Really neat!

All I can say is "WOW!" Now, that is definitely impressive! There is no way I would be able to cut into anything but the dress though!

That cake is remarkable, someone has alot of talent. I wonder also how long it took, and how much it cost. Wished they would have put a paragraph stating the cost and etc. Neat cake. Do I hear another WOW from the audience? WOW!!!!!!!

Incredible!! Reminds me of some of Roland Winbeckler's lifesize sculpted cakes. The designer did a great job especially on her face. What an artist!!

Operator: 911. What's your emergency?

Bride: Could someone please send the police? There's a dismembered head on my wedding cake!!! (screams)

ROTHFLMAO! I got this email 3 times yesterday! It was a bit creepy thinking how that head must have looked on her table as she carefully put makeup on it-like a mortician. (Forgive me. I love horror flicks! There is a possible concept about a mad baker that screenwriter may explore here but I won't go there.) LOL

Anyhow, I admire her talent. I hope she paid for the hours she put into this thing!

T-

Okay that frightens me. Someone is obviously very talented but it would still scare me.

It's a beautiful cake, that's for sure!! But I can't help myself.....

Do you suppose they saved the top layer for their first anniversary? Can you picture the head sitting in their freezer for the next year? LOL!!!!

The top part is a clay sculpture.

lmao...too funny specialtdesserts.. lol.. can't stop laughing.. but yes she did do a good job.. ( still can't stop laughing)..

OK - the cake and clay sculpture torso is beautiful, etc., etc. -

But, I want to know how that thing is supported and still standing!!!!

Was there someone under the table, praying to God it wouldn't fall over!!!

Isn't the person who made the cake a member here?? I thought I had seen her name somewhere on here (at least the name of her bakery, "Buttercream Dreams") That woman is talented I tell ya.
Great job, if you're reading this!!!!!

Wow - that bride didn't want anybody or anything - especially the cake to steal her thunder! LOL! That's amazing!

Okay I have to ask...WHO DOES THAT? Why would you want a complete...replica of you as your wedding cake? Yes the baker is very, very talented... But WHO DOES THAT? Is it me or is that just STRANGE!

I have one word...WHY?

ok...difficult cake..but dammn..too freaky..

I agree, WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU WANT A CAKE LIKE THAT MADE FOR YOUR WEDDING?. A bit too much into yourself I'd say. I think a cake like that is so tacky (although it was a wonderful job $$$$$) but it is the Brides day. I bet some people at the reception enjoyed seeing the knife stick into that cake (jj)!!

Ok, I have to agree with the majority here...this cake is absolutely amazing and the decorator very talented...but...it's just a little on the weird side for me...ok, it's alot on the weird side!!! Like, can't you just see this on an episode of The Twlight Zone!!!

What I can't believe is the attitudes of CC members on this topic.

Some of the comments in the various threads about this cake are out right disrespectful and rude!

Can't we (of all people) just enjoy and appreciate the artistry, hard work and creativity that goes into something like this and not be negative? Sheesh!

I just can't help but wonder if...it was red velvet cake.

Thus far in this thread just about everyone praises the artisty and work that went into the cake....But I have to agree with everyone else, it is just freaky to see a life size version of ones self in cake. Nobody said anything about the artistry, but what a beautiful cake it is!! So please reconsider your opinion!!

i was wondering the same thing! haha

bwahahaha ME TO

The top of this cake is NOT cake, it is a sculpture she had made and placed it on top of the cake. That part will not be eaten.
Anyone who has a cake like that for their wedding are doing it to get attention. When you go out seeking attention you have to know there will be those who do not agree with your idea.
I am sure the bride had great fun with it and she doesn't care if we as decorators liked it or not.
It is not my cup of tea.
