Kinda Gives A New Meaning To "Sunny Side Up"

They asked for a sportsball cake that said "Way To Go!"

They GOT a wedding cake that said:

"Way you go"

I love the lack of punctuation. It's basically the cake version of that unflappable old guy on a front porch watching the big action fight tumble down the street in front of him. "Yerp. Way you go."

 

And you KNOW I'm gonna milk this one for all its worth:

DON'T SAY 'A CURD.'

 

Which reminds me, did you know Monday was the Summer Solstice?

Um, that's "Solstice," bakers.

DANGIT, SOL.

 

And finally, here's a Wreck to the third power:

First, the customer spelled "farewell" wrong on the order form.

THEN the baker misspelled the misspelling on the actual cake.

Which gives us:

BEST. GOODBYE CAKE. EVER.

 

Thanks to Kristen B., John A., Vici R., Patti, & Meagan G. for reminding us failing well is ALWAYS an option.

Speaking of failing well, I feel like this is the crowd to appreciate a book of really, REALLY bad taxidermy:

Sunday Sweets Celebrates Pop Culture Dads

We've all seen enough necktie cakes to last us a lifetime, right? So instead, I thought we'd celebrate Father's day with some famous dads in Pop Culture.

After all, the dads on TV and in movies run the whole gamut of fatherhood.

 There are the dads who make us laugh:

Dads who give great advice:

Dads who like to cook:

And dads who are REALLY old-fashioned:

There are the single dads:

And the dads who left us too soon.

But we remember.

 

There are dads who make the most groan-worthy "Dad Jokes," like Bob Belcher with his daily menus:

 This baker also made cookies of all the characters, plus lots more menu boards!

So good.

 Of course some dads have a dark side:

Oof, I'm getting choked up.

But the good ones will find you when you're lost:

And the good ones also step up when your biological dad turn out to be a homicidal maniac trying to destroy the galaxy:

"He may have been your father, boy, but he wasn't your Daddy."

TEARS EVERY TIME.

Happy Father's day, everyone! Now, go celebrate all the good dads in your life, whether you're related or not.
