@Tootall your cake is awesome! Very long list to get on a cake but you did it :-) Loving Batman with the shop vac.
@Pastrybaglady thanks for your kind words.
@kstevens my birthday is October and I would like a bunny cake!!! Lol the bunny and squirrel are so cute together. All the bunnies who hang out by my garden always have their ears down while they are laying down. I think they are the cutest that way :)
All the naked cakes crack me up!!' A hooters baby shower that's a new one for sure!!! I was almost betting that the reason why she wanted it was bc she was a former hootera girl lol
One of my craziest requests was for a 50th birthday on Halloween... mummy sitting in a lotus flower doing yoga! This one still cracks me up when I look at it!

My great niece LOVES Frozen AND the Chicago Blackhawks. So she requested a "Frozen Hawks" cake for her 3rd birthday.
As I posted this was for 2 ladies who celebrated their combined b'days and wanted the total # of yrs in roses. One other bakery refused to do it.

And what was unusual about this was delivery had to be at 7 a.m. for a reception that was to start at 8:30

I did a wedding cake for a Hooters girl once...The toppers were two owls, and I didn't know the meaning of it until I noticed that the bridesmaids who were hanging around were all very well-endowed, shall we say. The bride's mom was there and she said "aren't they all darling? They all worked at Hooters together."
My only really weird one was for my nephew. He wanted a banana cake. At first I thought just banana flavored (which is weird enough for a kid) but no, he wanted a banana flavored banana shaped cake. Not a great picture of the cake but you get the idea :-) [postimage id="4682" thumb="900"]
he certainly liked it -- didn't even wait to get it out of the box -- yay aunt cindy!
Lol @costumeczar I love when we have a sense of humor about ourselves. I wonder if the bride and groom met there which is the reason for the owl topper. How funny would that be.
I love all these interesting cake requests from your family members!!! Kids really do have limitless imaginations. I had semi interesting request for hobbit door cookies that we did this weekend. Although lord of the rings is crazy big with people I had no idea what a hobbit door was lol thank goodness for Google :)

I did a surprise hobbit hole groom's cake once. The bride said the groom was a Hobbit fanatic, but when I looked it up it just looked like a hill with a door in it. I ended up doing a hillside with a cow grazing and a tree on the hill, then a door and window in the side of the hill with a little path leading to it. The groom was hanging around when I delivered it, and he took one look at it and screeched "IT'S A HOBBIT HOLE" and basically lost his mind.
So far my most interesting cake request was for an under the sea themed cake with a shark attack, specifically with blood in water, by a 9 year old :)[postimage id="6207" thumb="900"]
A 3D Harley Davidson motorcycle sitting in a kitty litter box. Complete with real, not edible kitty litter. Reason?? My husband's Harley is always leaking and he uses kitty litter to clean up the mess, but we don't have a cat and I want one. I glued "real" kitty litter down on a cake board, then sprayed it with clear mat paint and then made the motorcycle cake on it's own cake board with enough room around the edges to make icing litter and hoped and explained that there was a difference in the real and edible litter. This was about 30+ years ago.
Another interesting request was an alarm clock splitting in half with a certain time on it. It was for a retirement. Guess he didn't have to set his alarm clock any more to get up in time for work. Kind of a cute idea.
My top 5:
1. Road kill- I have made several possum shaped cakes with tire marks, guts and blood. One was for a wedding.
2. Woman giving birth with the head sticking out between the legs. I did it but was not happy. I always feel weird about sexy or nude cakes. I usually refuse though I have done several body part cookies and cakes for bachelor/bachelorette parties
3. Placenta Cake- The woman makes "cakes" out of real placenta to help nourish the mother. She wanted me to make a real cake that looked like placenta to use as pictures on her website. She didn't want the cake... only the pictures. I said NO thanks.
4. Shaped cake Doctor's bag with fruit, vegetables and naked babies spilling out along with a doctor's office full of people. That one was really strange.
5. Bride and groom sitting together on top of a beer keg (Grooms cake)
Also the same little boy has made several stage requests: Antiques, Full civil war battlefield, sinking Titanic with people in life boats.
:O Do you have a photo of it? I loved BB but I don't think I can ever bring myself to watch it through again.
