Expectation vs Reality, Vol. 27

Jamie ordered this zebra-stripe cake in blue and green:

...but she got this:

Mmm. Squishy.

(Anyone else seeing under-ripe banana peels?)

I'm still not sure what happened to Deirdre's Nemo cake. 
She ordered this:

...but got... this?

After much puzzling, I've decided that thing in the middle is a snow globe.

Which only prompts more questions, if you think about it.

And finally, Jody ordered a rainbow cake from this website promising next day delivery:

Just to be clear, that's the picture on the bakery's own website, so it's not like they were asked to match someone else's work.

(Drum roll, please.)

Aaaaand this is what turned up at Jody's door the next day:

I have lost the ability to even, you guys.

That's right.

I CAN'T EVEN.

Thanks to Jamie B., Deirdre D., & Jody E. for proving you can't always trust things ordered off the internet. (But I still have high hopes for this at-home lipo kit, so hey, wish me luck!)

I was looking for colorful things to buy Jen and I came across something cool:

Shape Shifting Box

It’s a magnetic, puzzle box fidget toy that transforms into 70 shapes and comes in 20 colors. Groovy.

My Little Tony: Wreckage is Tragic

Remember the Italian bakery that accidentally mistook a little girl's My Little Pony cake order for a Little TONY cake order?

(Apparently Little Tony was a singer back in the early 60s.)

(So, you know, SUPER popular with today's 9-year-olds.)

Of course we feel for little Evelina, having to endure an obscure 60's crooner stealing Pinkie Pie's rightful spotlight - but this being Cake Wrecks, we've also discovered the OTHER side of the wrecky coin.

Meet Tony, the birthday boy who just wanted his own name on his birthday cake:

....and maybe for people to stop stacking their laundry on it.

SORRY, TONY.

Ah, but you're in luck! We ordered you a new cake, Tony, and we even asked the baker to add some crushed nuts on top, since we heard you like those.

Ah.

Well, ain't that a kick in the... head.

SORRY AGAIN, TONY.

Thanks to Eva G., Bridgett M., & Whitney N., who actually wanted her cake to look like that... so I recommend staying on her good side.

And here’s something for anyone feeling especially Mount Doom & gloom today:
Because one does not simply walk into Mordor. Eh? EH?
