Has this become so acceptable that we celebrate divorcing now? This is a first time request for me and I have no idea what to do for it. The lady whom asked for it said she has 'no idea, it's for a friend ... just chocolate cake and enough for 12 - oh and use humour'. Okay ... I've searched the galleries and nothing hit me, that and there is only 2 designs close to this theme. I don't really want any blood or violence involved, maybe a big boot or high heel with the groom attached to the toe? I dunno know... Anyway, she gave me lots of notice and it's a small order, now I just need a sense of humour! Anyone?
do a ball and chain but have the chain broken...and rolling over the guy...hehehe I think that would be funny
I love the idea of a high heel and a groom on the toe, make sure his a?? is right up the toe.. ha ha..
I just googled "divorce cake" and there are some pretty funny ones on there...
i like this saying that was on one of the cakes..
Divorce: Because I want to have my cake and eat it too.
I was ROFLMAO at some of the cakes and sayings... maybe doing divorce cakes is the new niche market... OMG ![]()

You could do a cake that kind of looks like a Visa Credit Card and write something like this,
Exp: All the cleaning: $1,000.00's
All the meals cooked: $1,000.00's
Changing Phone Number: $20.00
Finally SINGLE: PRICELESS!!!!!!!
You could change the words to say something else, I use those as an exp.
Hope this helps.
I think it should say something like... My life... his loss or something.... Love the other ideas though.
Do a pretty heart cake, with the words "Love You" written all pretty and scripty...then pipe a big black "X" over the words, like they are crossed out.
I see a fair few posts on cakes that have split - perhaps here is a ready made use for them!
Thank you all, very helpful and now I'm thinking! I've been so stuck on this site, and in my kitchen I never thought to Google search .... duh! Once I joined this site it seems I don't use Google half as much. Thanks again everyone, I'm actually seeing the humour in this now and looking forward to making it - who'd have thunk it?! ![]()

I just hope I stop laughing soon, things to do involving steady hands ...
I was thinking of this when the matter came up the other day. You know the cakes where they take the round and then cut out a slice and put it on top of the round and decorate with fondant so that it looks like the center of the cake? You could do that and label the smaller section "his" and the larger section "hers" (or vice versa as the case may be)
Actually, I was way off, but here's the picture....it's on page 4

I really like the idea of the visa credit card...it's so fun!!!
How about writing
"I'M WITH STUPID" with an arrow pointing towards a man's face and then putting a red arrow in between the I'M & WITH and then writing NOT or WAS in big red letters up above. Something like this:
Sorry it's so big - I tried to fix it.
maybe dumb, but what about a cake that looks like a banana split (I think I've seen one in the galleries or somewhere) or just a picture of one on a smaller cake. Could play off the "split" idea...."sweet in splitsville" or "a sweet split" ???
I like the half heart... maybe a bite mark on his side...
an apron with scissors cutting the strings...
a saddle? ... don't ask me why the words to the song... "back in the saddle again..." keep running through my mind ![]()
champagne glasses clinking with fireworks... ![]()
I love the broken chain idea.............. I would do that one with maybe a bird flying away from it.......
I went through a divorce a while ago, and met a lot of ladies going through the same thing, and the general consensus was........... we felt free, or we felt like we could fly.......... bear in mind most of us were coming out of abusive relationships........
There is a saying "During the marriage a man blossoms. During the divorce a woman blooms." Something like that anyway ... you all get the idea. Myself and the friends I have that are/have divorced all admit that in their minds the marriage had actually ended way before the seperation. Honestly didn't realize people had parties to celebrate it, but if you have to deal with something like that you may as well laugh at it. All these cake ideas make me wish I had held a party when I divorced my first husband 20 something yrs ago - that was something to celebrate! ![]()
Back on topic, I'm going to talk to her about some of these suggestions and see what she prefers. One of my girlfriends asked if it was possible to do a 3D finger with 'eat me' on it... coffee flew everywhere when she said she like to send it anonymously to her MIL! Guess you don't need a party to have a cake anymore -
!
LOL sometimes I think the groom needs a good push over the side of the Cake. What a fun Idea for a divorce cake...not a big one, but just the right size and maybe put some kind of man eatting animal under where he is going to fall...hehe...ok I'm done being mean now.
How about a little set of legs sticking up from the frosting (head and torso buried)?
