Yeah. It's not that pretty. To be fair to myself, that red wrapping I used on the base is what throws off the color balance in the photo. But still. It's a rather ugly display.
It's chocolate cake with chocolate frosting, a 6" heart sitting on a 15" heart...decorated with rambling greenery and frightful flowers in "aster mauve" and light blue.
It was for my bosses's wife's birthday. I know, really. It's amazing I lasted another day.
I've got a few cakes like this - ones that I just cringed the whole time I was making them because I didn't really have any sort of theme or story to work with. I think I was just asked to do something chocolate. Maybe the heart shape too. I don't know.
Anyway. Let us close the door on this frightful chapter. Thank you.
dat cake looks nasty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe so, nestor, maybe so, but it was only 44th in your search for ugly cakes, so I don't think it rates quite as many exclamation points as you gave it. Thank you anyway.
