Well, I made a cake last night for a friend that I was reeeaaaallly not proud of. 
Although, I will say that it looked better in person than in my gallery photo. I had actually liked the colors, the borders, etc. All was fine until I had to write the 11 words on the top!
Anyway, I was ashamed for her to see it and to serve it at her family party. She showed up with a trunk and backseat full of stuff and her mom and their little dog in the front seat. Well, as you might guess, the dog jumped on the top of the box, it caved in, and the cake was pretty much ruined. I can honestly say I was glad!!!!
I kind of know what you mean - I've had a couple of cakes that I was hoping would get run over by a train on the way to delivery. But, still, you did put a lot of work into it - it must have crushed you just a little to see it go down the drain like that. And besides, it probably would have tasted great - they missed out on all that. My worst cake disaster was a cake that fell apart on its way to my MIL's birthday party. Fortunately, it fell apart on the cake board, not on the ground, so I took it anyway and it got devoured (seconds and thirds were had by all!), because it really tasted good, so you never know. Sorry for your mishap!

Well, we peeked in the box and the cake was pretty well mangled, but I'm sure they could still manage to cut and serve it. So, they could enjoy the taste without having to see my ugly work! 
mayo222 -- apparently, I'm as bad at syntax as I am at cake decorating! You're absolutely right -- it did read that way!
vtcake -- I'm not a professional decorator. I just bake for family and friends, so I figured I made what she asked for and I gave it to her. Beggars can't be choosers!
