What do You Think of this “Frog” Birthday Cake?

Apparently, the parents of the child for whom it was purchased are furious with the bakery. I think it’s a Minimalist Masterpiece!

It's not easy being a big green cak.

I like it. Not really a frog cake though.

It really wasn't much of a frog cake. I'm glad that someone else came along and fixed it up for the kid and his parents.

Take it to a real cake-maker, not Woolworths.

Oh my lord, that was HILARIOUS! A smile and a three. Just a few lines short of a dick drawing...Woolworth’s still exists?!

The baker must have been at wits end. I admit I could have done better, but it was worth a laugh!

Make your own fucking cake, you lazy bitches. Or shell out for a decent real bakery.

I think the cake was cute and those parents are just looking for attention and a freebie.

Woolworths and Coles are the two big supermarket chains in Australia

Good that the parents aren't suing Woolworth's & saying that their kid will be scarred for life because he didn't get a proper frog cake. Other than that, slow news day filler.

The fix is almost as bad! Just draw a frog in icing! I’m sure another bakery could do this. Really not that hard!

My god. If you can’t count on Woolworth's to make a decent frog cake, who can you turn to?!?

I don’t think he’ll remember anyway.

That's a fucking article? Holy shit that's idiotic.

R9 - The “fix” is a million times worse than the original. It’s like spray painting over a Yayoi Kusama!

The dad has the hands and forearms of a 60 year old ! WTF is that about ? What a pathetic attention grab.Are people this desperate to be noticed ?

The most interesting thing about that story is that a form of Woolworth's sill exists in Australia.

I’m a great baker and this is the best thing I’ve ever seen. Also, it’s my birthday tomorrow and I’m feeling sorry for myself, and I wish this was my cake. Excellent work.

by Anonymousreply 20November 14, 2018 3:14 AM

Am I the only person who thinks that $50 is extravagant for a cake for a three-year-old?!?

They could have gotten him green Pop Tarts and he would have been just as happy.

What a clever baker! He baked a lovely cake, then put a frog in a blender, added frosting ingredients and green food coloring, and Voila! a frog cake!

As far a frog cakes go, that's pretty terrible, but the kid probably didn't care at all.

They could have made a Kit Kat frog cake.

I had that cake at Restaurant de l'Hôtel de ville de Crissier in Switzerland. The 3 stood for pistachio, mint and green cacao bean. It was enjoyed with a ridiculously expensive vin de glace.

by Anonymousreply 30November 14, 2018 7:19 PM

It's actually made with real frogs, so I don't see what the problem is.

[quote] He added: “A cake is an integral part of any child’s birthday party. You want a nice one, so you’re able to remember it and take photos.

But he couldn't be bothered to check the cake when he picked it up.

[quote]“I just assumed it would be fine. When I got home, I opened it up with my wife and we were both mortified,” he said.

You were ok to use a store bought birthday cake and then were MORTIFIED when it didn't look as you expected it to look like? Tough luck, buttercup.

is it butter-adjacent "creme"

by Anonymousreply 36November 14, 2018 8:26 PM

I'm just shocked that the cake cost $49 (AUS) which works out to £27.30 (GBP) or $35.40 (USD).

Here in the UK those crappy cakes cost about £15 (GBP) from Costco.
