She may not look thrilled, but she's the one that ordered it!
I would find it a bit creepy to have people cutting into and consuming a baked effigy of my person.....
Egotistical much, lady? Most brides are happy with a plastic bride and groom on top of the cake!
Granted, the cake is well made (aside from that red rickrack up the side), and the likeness is amazing, but still...
did you read the comments?
Apparently the red rickrack was a cable.... that animated the mouth and controlled the sound...
thats right she has a life sized TALKING wedding cake of herself....
omg...

The bride cakes were creepy and I don't see what the hell is so great about cutting into a cake effigy of yourself. Just as bad, if not worse was the couple that requested a birthday cake in the likeness of their German Shepherd dog.. The foot cakes... were they thinking?!! Those were the most unappetizing and grossest looking cakes I've ever seen.

I read somewhere that the bride was from Ghana or Nigeria, where effigies are part of the culture. She had seen something similar in a bakery window as a child. So I think it's maybe more of a cultural thing than an 'OMG I am the princess worship my flour and frosting holiness'.
Doesn't make it any less creepy though.
A few years ago we needed to get a last-minute cake for my brother Erik's birthday. We went to the grocery store, where the regular decorator was out sick or something. Some poor kid was trying to cover for her, and explained that his decorating skills weren't great. We said that it didn't matter, as long as Erik's name was spelled correctly (meaning, spelled with a 'K' rather than a 'C').
We came back a few hours later to find a white frosted cake, upon which, scrawled pitifully in blue icing, was "Happy Birthday, Eirk."
My mother, sister-in-law and I all burst out laughing in the bakery. Erik just shook his head when he saw it. We tease him about it to this day.
Ah, tally-ho, yippety-dip, and zing zang spillip! Looking forward to bullying off for the final chukka?
