Which is true in my case because I can't stand them. Although that doesn't explain why I had ome cake in the first place.

Also there is no cake that cannot be saved by chocolate chips and/or big lumps of chocolate on the top.
And I'd like to know that thinking behind putting [extra] cream on cakes. It just makes them messy to eat and blocks out the flavour.

Angel Cake - now there was a Sunday tea-time ritual round my house as a kid. You'd try and leave the double creamed segment til last, but rarely manage it. The Kit-Kat of the cake world.

You know how in continental Europe it's rubbish and they drink a lot of UHT milk? Is it the same in the US? I can't remember. Anyway, that makes their cream cakes (and pastries) suck too.

Note to dieters: eating a small amount of very rich cake won't fuck you up NEARLY as much as eating a shitload of, say, Hostess products or the almighty Dorito. I think Healthy Eating Lo-Fat foods are the biggest scam in the whole world and do not work. Ally, cottage cheese is Satan's smeg, yo, and it reminds you and all comers you're on a miserable diet. Just drink water when you feel the need to eat or have a banana (good for well-being as it helps with serotonin and you will be a little too happy to comfort eat).

I went into the kitchen at work and there was cake, and I ate two large pieces of the cake. With coffee. It was a strawberry cake (reddish pink) with strawberry icing (also pink, but more of a pastel pink). It was very good.

I hate it when people make cakes in the shape of something else. I mean really really hate. It's a subset of the "playing with food" genre that can be best illustrated with that awful "sausage mash and peas in a smiley face" kind of thing.

my friend recently made a cake in a lobster-shaped pan. she tried to make red fondant for it, but she didn't have enough food coloring so it turned out pink. the finished cake looked like a smooth, shiny pink dong.

There is a farmers' market today outside my office - I just bought a lush lemon drizzle cake. It's sitting on my desk right now and I'm trying to save it to take home and not sneak slices off it all afternoon.
xpost my housemate once made pink mashed potato - tasted the same but could hardly bring myself to eat it, it was just wrong..

(xxpost) I mean, if you're going to bake me a cake, just make a cake shaped cake and use the time saved by not unnecessarily decorating it to bake another cake. Then I'd have two cakes instead of something that looks like a half melted traffic cone (or perhaps it's supposed to be a Dalek?)

People do disgusting things with cakes. I do not understand their thinking. They are beyond my ken.
btw, I like spice cake and carrot cake, provided they are not too sweet and are not slathered an inch deep in frosting. chocolate cake is, of course, classic in almost any variation.

I have not stopped thinking about Colin the Caterpillar since I read this yesterday:
https://www.theguardian.com/food/2020/sep/03/colin-the-caterpillar-at-30-how-a-supermarket-cake-stole-the-nations-heart
I didn't get one for my birthday this year (obviously because we were not in the office at the time, but it is definitely an office tradition to get one - and the birthday person gets to eat Colin's FACE om nom nom I love cakes with faces on them - eating faces is GRATE!) and I still vaguely cheated about that.
Would it be absolutely terrible if I went and bought one, and spent the entire weekend eating it by myself - is this a good idea or would I just make myself terribly sick, because no one on earth is really capable of eating that much rich cake by themselves?)

I did actually go and buy one because it was on sale, and the beastie is positively monstrous - I had forgotten how absolutely enourmous they are, and I've no idea how I'm going to consume the whole thing without my colleagues to help!
(There were micro-Colins available - and I discovered you can buy the faces without the cake? But I was suckered into buying a whole big one by the sale price.)
