What is wrong with people, to think it is ok to treat another person like this?!!!!

I love your cake...this lady is a nut job. Pay no attention to her.

When I clicked on the link to take a look at the picture I wasn't expecting such a cute cake to pop up! In no way did that cake look last minute. I thought it was great. I agree with everyone that you need to send her a bill!

When she threw the cake it scared me...I was scared to go any further...I wanted to run...but turned and walked away...as I was walking I was crying...not to where they could hear me...I think the husband was upset at her though...I mean she literally threw the cake on the table...I had the box lid propped open so as not to smoosh the bow down into the cake...I seen the cake hit...the bow jump up and I knew the whole top had to be ruined. I came home in tears and DH is furious. But I am breathing NOW...and I will let it go but not another last minute cake again! I wish I would of just said NO NO NO in the first place.

Hell no I would have picked the cake up and told her to get bent and walked out the door with it. I think it looks very nice

Tell her to come here and read this...Tell her to try making the cake herself and lets see how well she can do it. Some people don't understand the amount of work that making and decorating a cake takes... I say she is a looser

Don't ever let someone do that to you again! What a nasty witch. icon_sad.gif

Next time someone is even remotely rude or dismissive about the product that they receive or goes so low as to make personal remarks about your abilities...

...pick up the cake and tell them if they don't want it, there is a shelter nearby that would be so thankful to receive it and walk out on HER! thumbs_up.gif

Your cake was fine. But this will happen again if you continue to leave cake with anybody that's crass enough to be that nasty. She'll tell all of her nasty friends... "Guess what! I figured out how to get free cake. All you have to do is..." And you know the rest of the story. icon_twisted.gif


We all need shirts that on the front say, "Don't like it? Then,." On the back they'd say, "NO CAKE FOR YOU!!" I swear we wouldn't have half the problems.


Chin up and don't listen to the witch with a "b." Continue to make cakes because you like to and you're good at it, not because some crass in-duh-vidual doesn't know a good cake when she sees one.

I think that you're cake is very cute and chocolate, chocolate, chocolate! I hope that this never happens to you again (or anyone else!) I know hindsight is 20/20 but I would walk out WITH my cake or at least drop it on the floor for her to clean up (that just came out OPPS - but it would be great). Even if you were not happy with the way it turned out I bet it still tasted amazing.

I too am sick to my stomach after reading your post - I looked ast the cake and it doesn't look poopy at all! It was VERY nice and smooth and seriously, you did a very good job! I do wish you would have taken the cake with you, she didn't deserve it if she was going to treat it that way and you deserved to be compensated for all you have been through. Please, send her a bill - you can't let people walk on you like that! Keep us posted!

The lady obviously had something very specific in mind, despite saying the opposite to you when she ordered from you. Why else would she have such a freak-out at a very nicely decorated cake which does not at all look amateurish. Your cake is perfectly well put together, it is smooth, your writing is very nice and your bow is beautiful.

So the only explanation must be that she had a 3-tier cake with handmade gumpaste flowers and pure gold decorations in mind when she ordered - which she of course expected for no money at all.

I understand you are upset but relax, you did nothing wrong at all. I expect you will receive an apology very soon from them, the lady is probably feeling like a complete idiot now. But under no circumstance take orders from her again, she does not deserve you, and certainly did not deserve a free cake today.
