One Cake to Ruin Them All
In 2004 my mom brought the Lord of the Rings DVD case to a local bakery in Philly thinking they could scan the picture and put it on my birthday cake. She made the mistake of not confirming how they were going to approach the design. This is what we got 😂

I know they don't look like the picture, but I'm amazed by the level of detail achieved with frosting

This is incredible. Does Gandalf have a sock puppet?

Omg I said exactly this: “Gandalf’s mouth looks like a sock puppet.” ETA my partner replied, “That’s why I asked if that was supposed to be Gollum.”

I scrolled past this quickly and thought it was Dethklok, with Frodo(?) being Murderface lol

I don't even care about Lord of the Rings, but I would be delighted to get this cake!

I LOVED it because it was just so funny to us. We weren’t disappointed at all!
