What's The "weirdest" Thing Someone Has Requested
Decorating By KHalstead Updated 29 Apr 2010 , 9:57pm by crystalscustomcakes
The strangest (and probably most un-appealing!) request was for a baby shower. Mom to be was terrified of delivery, so they thought it would be funny to get her a cake of a baby's head being born from, well, the anatomically correct body part. I talked them out of the cake saying that a-it would be expensive and b-I didn't think anyone would want to eat that. We decided on a pretty gift box cake!
Oh..my..god! I'm not squeamish but that's just wrong! Can you imagine the reaction of the party guests?

Yep...sick and wrong...good grief!
A poor lady terrified of delivery deserves a pretty cake, not a gag gift. haha. "Gag" having some double meaning here!
A friend's mum was turning 50 so they requested I make them saggy boobs, (no clothing, that's just not right) After a chat my friend finally agreed to the 'lets show her some support' bra cake, much more tactful, it's in my pictures. I wouldn't agree to make their first choice.
Oh, these are really funny!
Kitagirl, did they pay by credit card....?
The weirdest one I ever did was a bridal shower cake for a woman who was marrying a prison inmate -- two nuzzling birds, one in a cage and one out! It was one of the first decorated cakes I ever did. Never got a shot of the completed cake; in this photo, the roof of the birdcage is still detached for transport:

A pile of poop complete with toilet paper and flies!

Jadak- that's just gross.
Endymion- I think they have a show about women that marry prisoners. Boggles my mind.
I recently got a request for a baseball themed cake. But on top, they want a baby laying in a bassinet with really big feet and on the bassinet they want the name "Magnus" written on it. My customer said that it is for her friend's 60th birthday. Her friend loves baseball, thus the baseball theme - but the baby is some sort of 'inside joke' that she didn't share and I didn't ask!
Interesting to say the least

If they did, it was online so at least I didn't have to touch it. haha. And they sure didn't swipe it in MY butt.....

Yuck That's actually worse than the pregnat belly and the clear gelatin with the baby inside.
Some of these request are a little more than odd. I've never had any strange request like these and hope I never do.
I have to admit the butt swiping credit card cake is too funny but the question as to whether or not they paid for the cake with the credit card had me rolling on the floor
Oh, these are really funny!

RIGHT!!!!! I'd be like..........uh uh......I ain't swiping YOUR card in MY machine no way no how (I know where it's been)
LOL
These stories got me laughing big time... LOL
Had an order for dog licking p-nut butter, story was really gross will leave it to your imagination. I declined the details they wanted and they agreed my way was much better... is in my pictures....
My weirdest request was actually my first paid order and it was just an odd combination of items. They asked for a housewarming bouquet for a couple, one from kansas, one from Mississippi, liked Dancing with the Stars and Star wars. So I painted " there's no place like home on the container"and the StarWars characters are dancing in ruby slippers(for Kansas-Wizard of Oz) Magnolias-Miss. State flower and the Mirror ball trophy for DWTS. They loved it...and I'm doing their wedding cookies this fall!.
KathysCC - Love the Harley bride.
linstead - Maybe that was what they saw AFTER they eat the brownies.
I once had a woman who was looking through my pics with her 11 year old son and came across my bikini cake.

She slammed the book shut and said (loudly) "You CAN'T see THAT!!!" Caused quite a scene. Then she ordered this:

Apparnetly, he plays all the Resident Evil games and only watches zombie movies.
I found that a little weird.
What's REALLY weird is she just ordered him another zombie cake today!

Mercy!! That kid's going to be warped for life!
Kita - The only thing she asked was that it be "realistic but not bloody." Well, I have been a nurse for nearly 20 years... those wounds were incredibly realistic in person. THEY WERE THRILLED!
Bob - A steady diet of violent movies/video games and sheltered from the opposite sex... NAH!! I'm sure he'll turn out just fine.
How do you have a realistic wound that is not bloody?
Red Velvet cake with red piping gel under the fondant?

Have you ever seen a decubitus?
I Google imaged that. I don't recommend anyone else do so.
Probably my two weirdest are one order I filled, and one I didn't (well I did, but we changed the design!)
This one, to depict a prank game they played on each other by swiping credit cards down each other's butts. Whatever:

The other weird one was a lady who wanted a life size replica of her two year old to feed 30. haha. I was like "Um I have a 2 year old and he would feed about 100...that is, in cake....that is, if I WANTED a cake like that...that is...."
DING, DING, DING......WE HAVE A WINNER!!!
I cannot believe someone would order a credit card, butt swiping cake! It really did turn out great though!!!!

that said,
The weirdest cake request I have had.. .a $20 dollar tiered wedding cake !!!
The weirdest request I ever got (on a Thursday for a Saturday wedding) was (my choice) either doing a Super Mario cake or a Spiderman bust cake (nice of them to let ME pick THEIR cake!) I declined because I was out of town at the time and I don't even consider a wedding cake if their wedding isn't at least 9-12 months away. (Who does Mario at a wedding anyway???)
you should check out this mario cake.. it is awesome..
