Which Cake is More Terrifying?
While I appreciate the skill it took to produce cake #1, I gotta go with cake #2 for sheer creepiness.

Especially amongst the high-toned tea things, the Floral Cake Topping of Threat is a bit unhinged...
bahaha. i can see it now. "Grandma, are you okay?" "Yes dearrrriiiiiiiieeeeeeeee (fakey smile)" "Mommy i'm frightened!"
def #2!
Whoa... It's close, but #2 wins.
Skulls you can sink your teeth into.
And a purty cake to give to your stalkee.
I love both cakes, but I must say the second one is very creepy... must get one >_>
Oh, definitely #2.
Another question:
If either of these cakes wound up at your doorstep, would you eat it?
Wow... Thats a tough one, I'm going to say.... Number 2!
Although #1 is a skull, it looks kind of tastier (Its chocolate!!), and #2 is just wierd. It's all flowery and pretty, but I can totaly imagine a twisted aunt who still hates you for letting your dog dig up her Mums, seeking revenge.
"Avenge me, Grandma!!"
"Okay, lets bake a cake!"
lol number 2 because no one will notice it at first and then they will get a shock!
hahahahahaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!! can i get cake 2 in green and black, for my bday??!?!?!!?!!!? oh, and cake 1 for my cousin. her bday is halloween!!!!!
The #1 earns points for decorative-ness and coolness, but #2 is just plain creeeeepy!!
hahaha the fancy tea things really add to the creeper cake...the best thing is the second doesn't actually take skill to make so I can always make special deliveries to select peoples :D
Have you seen http://cakewrecks.com?
BTW I just entered the Making Fiends art contest...wish me luck :D heh
42: I probably would eat them, if only to faze anyone trying to intimidate me. mwahaha...(although eating the first one might disturb me a bit.) Kind of like the African (??) tradition of eating your enemies' hearts/brains.
i just remembered....if my top choice careers dont work out, i will have a cake shop in santa cruz or capitola or san francisco and i will make the awesomest cakes ever, because i am an artist and i like cake. :)
Mmmmmmm.... The cake No. 2 could be used as a psychological weapon. Cake No. 1 is tasty looking.
defo 2.... innocence masking evil is far worse than terror in broad daylight...
Number 2 Why?
Because with the skull you EXPECT it to be creepy(face it we've seen skulls since 2nd grade)
But with the second it looks innocent but the message sends chills down your spine(like my neighbor 3yr old, everyone thinks that when she smiles she looks adorable but to me she just looks demonic)
:(
#1 gets points for sheer creativity but #2 seems like the one to be in a bad horror movie.
rrandom comment!!!! :
ooooh thumb biter u like making fiends?!?!?!!?! haha love that show! but for some reason it wouldnt download on iTunes :( . but aaannnnnyyyywwwaayyss.... have you ever gotten a book from a parent or relative and they say it looks good but you say blah and then a year and a half late ryou read it and its sooooooooooopr doooooooopr good and it gets a higher ranking in your book kingdom? that just happened to me with the book the wright 3 and i was reading the empresss tomb but i read a kiki strike book about once a month and i lent the first one to my cousin and havent gotten it back yet.................. wow that was a random comment!!!
kirsten sorry if it was too long and random. i have a habit of doing that. :)
creepy, personally i think the skull cake is amazing. one time my young women leader made a cake in the shape of a purse, it was crazy insane, and delicious. she used like 6 cakes to make it!!!!!
i luv both! Ican't chose!!!!!!!
VENDETTA: stinking lucky cousin :)
I showed my mom and she freaked out and said,"Who cut who's head open?!?!"
number 2 is really creepy (imagine finding that on your doorstep to YOUR brownstone and opening it up!) but #1 doesn't look too tasty LOL
definitally 2
Anonymous: You say "YOUR brownstone" as if you know which brownstone is mine. Do you? haha
you live in a brownstone? which one? just be warned: it might not be the best idea to tell me.............
you know that picture of a 'normal family'? a friend of mine noticed another peculiar thing about the picture. the lady sitting on the heads leg is missing. she crossed them, but the leg on the bottom is missing.
kirsten, DO you live in a brownstone?
do you want a betta fish? i do.
I would love to be given the second one on my birthday. It's next weekend! Hmmm... I could just imagine the look on someone's face when they receive a cake like that.
I agree, the skull is pretty sweet, but the freaky threat thrown in amongst the floral, sweet, grandmotherliness is hilarious.
42: Yes. Its still cake.
The combination of pink-and-white icing, flowers, and a creepy message beats the scariness of a skull. But the missing apostrophe in "I'M" (it said "IM" instead) is even more upsetting. My inner Lynne Truss is crying.
I would say cake one, except for the fact that cake 2 is floral. For some reason, the opposite messages creep me out.
Yeah 2 is the winner!
I CAN NOT wait till HALLOWEEN!
Why?
1, Candy
2, I got a KEWL halloween costume
3, Ananka always posts some thing
AWSOME
4, Cccaaannndddy
5, Haunted houses
6, costume contests
7,CANDY CANDY CANDY!
8, halloween cartoons
9,and CANDY
Thumb bitter:
HOPE you win!
speaking of awsome costumes, nothing is awsomer than a costume that you designed your self. therefor, my costumeis utter awsomeness.
I kinda wanna eat both XD Equally freaky. I needa recipe for those two before Halloween comes!!! D:
ok, i LOVE LOVE LOVE CAKE NO.1, but i think that cake no.2 was a little more creepier cuz it wuz so random like me!!
Number 2 kind of seems like "I'm gonna get you when I see you and hug you so much, because I miss you." lol! :D
Well, I know what cake I'm making for a friend's birthday. ;p
it's making me hungry
so sweet...flowers,pink,white and then you realize, YOU WILL DIE! Your aunt is going to suck you into the TV and keep you from the light! You must go to the light! The LIIIGHT!! THE LIGHT! *deep gasping of an insane person*
Sorry, I just saw Poltergeist for the first time.
I am sorry for my last comment. It was insane and uncalled for. But it was also perfectly understandable because I had just downed a whole can of Pepsi and three mini snickers and a mini Hershey's. In other words I was sugar hyped and apologize for creeping anybody out. Also I had just seen Poltergeist for the first time. Yes, I'm 12 and JUST saw Poltergeist. Big deal.
*Forrester is not responsible for sudden cravings of candy or soda* :)
The pink one!
Numba 2 is sorta creeping me out...
THE TOTAL WINNER!!!!!!!!!!
What's a 'brownstone?' besides the obvious answer i mean.
cake #2. it scares me because it says i'm gonna get you.AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
to 42: not #2 and #1 i'll make my brother try a piece before i do.. just in case.. ;)
I think #2 definitely wins!! I would never eat that cake! On the other hand, that skull cake is awesome, but not as creepy. I am now in the mood for chocolate cake!
