Ugly Cakes plus Friday Frivolity Linky Party

Our host theme this week for Friday Frivolity is Pinterest Fails. You know when you try a recipe or craft project from Pinterest and it is a huge disaster. Pshaw, I don't need to look any further than my own blog for material. I might be a Food Blogger, but I am also the world's worst cake decorator. No really, I am. But the cakes usually taste good.

It is okay to laugh at my Cake Disasters, because I certainly do.

ugly cake - elmo — Elmo and Dorothy for his 3rd Birthday. I tried to cut it out of a round cake plus three cupcakes. And since I can't pipe worth a darn I tried fluffing the frosting to look like fur.

ugly cake - castle — The next year I opted for one of those shaped cake pans, but my cake decorating skills did not improve. Told you I can't pipe. Thank goodness he chose a blue castle or it might have looked rather phallic.

ugly cake - monster — Got the idea for a monster eye cake on... Pinterest. U-G-L-Y you ain't got no alibi.

ugly cake - donnie — He had just lost his first tooth and he drew out the exact cake he wanted me to make. NAILED IT! (BTW, the recipe for the TMNT M&M cookies is over on That Recipe)

ugly cake - seuss — Have you figured out what these are supposed to be? Green Eggs and Ham. Sigh, the idea seemed so good in my head.

ugly cake - spider — The winner of the ugliest cake I have ever created goes to this Spider Cake. Actually there is a fu nny story behind it (as well as a great chocolate cake recipe).

Now on to the link-up! 😀
