Baker Sends Bride a Turd-Shaped Cake, Tells Her to 'Eat Sh*t'

[shopgirl15]

A disgruntled baker took shit-flinging to a near-literal level when she retaliated against a client by providing her engagement party with a poo-shaped cake topped with the words "eat shit."

Emma McDonald, owner and operator of Oh Cakes near Invercargill, New Zealand, was contracted to produce a cake for an engagement party by the bride-to-be's sister.

The customer had $30 (~$25) left on a $50 (~$40) voucher after buying something else, and she asked McDonald to bake her a chocolate cake for the party.

The transaction rubbed McDonald the wrong way, according to a message she later posted on Facebook: "Your [sic] left with a $30 voucher and you want a cake still?? ok cool - give me some ideas?? oh wait you have none apart from wanting chocolate. I have a brilliant idea for your cake!!! - so here it is, your turd cake! Hope you learn your lesson."

Have to say I was hoping this was a message to a bridezilla who deserved it, but I'm just confused right now.

I'd have to know more about what really happened to decide if the baker was sucky or not.

But +1 for the bits of "corn" in the turd cake.

Yeah, I was expecting a "bridezilla" story here too.

From what I've gathered, the person who ordered the cake missed meetings to tell McDonald about what she wanted for the cake. She just simply said "a chocolate cake" and left it at that. No further information was given, nor did the customer pick out a design.

Technically McDonald DID give the customer what she wanted...a chocolate cake.

The suck lies with the customer on this one...the "mind reading" scenario that we've all heard about so many times. Customer wanted cake, customer gets cake, customer screams that the cake isn't "what she wanted" even though she said chocolate. Customer gets pissy with baker and slanders her.
Alternate scenario would've been that the customer wanted a $100+ cake for $30.

Almost any bridal cake pwnage makes me think of the one that was posted here. The one where the design was a basket weave and in her revenge gets half of the cake.

I remember that story. I wonder what happened to Cookiesaur.

Since there of those around here that weren't here in 09.... The tale from Cookiesaur and her fee 50%.

It was a simple misunderstanding. She asked for a SHEET cake.
