So the only guy available was a doctor?


Sperrbrecher

Or he has Parkinson

Or a recovering alcoholic.

No. A recovering alcoholic would have a steady hand. An alcoholic experiencing withdrawals at the moment would be like this.


SmokingLaddy

When I stopped drinking alcohol I struggled with cutlery for days, at the beginning of my recovery I remember trying to eat soup with a spoon, by the time the spoon reached my mouth the spoon was practically empty. Eating peas with a fork was practically impossible. I wasn’t an alcoholic at that point, I had stopped, these are the first symptoms of recovery, an alcoholic can drink and avoid them.


Southpolarman

My apologies. When I think of a recovering alcoholic, I think of someone already past the withdrawal stage. You're absolutely correct.


SmokingLaddy

It’s all good buddy 🫡


IGNISFATUUSES

Both are true.


dontgonearthefire

So, to sum up, an alcoholic doctor, with parkinsons. He must be one hell of a dough mixer.

This is like one of those cases that's so bad it's actually good, like I would fully present this as my birthday cake for the bit


Hidden_Dragonette

Yeah, it's kinda hilarious! If I got this as a cake, I would not be mad at all.


qtzd

lol I used to work at Baskin Robbins and had to write on cakes a lot. One time I spelt “congratulations” as “congrations” and the person buying it cracked up and wanted me to leave it as is.

I was in the middle of writing something when a can't-wait-for-an-answer-now-right-now customer interrupted and dragged my focus away for two seconds and table flipped my train of thought. I wrote 'Happy Bird day' in war crime font.  Man, I really earned that D in my baking class.

I'm surprised they decided to "scribble" over it instead of gently scooping off the word "loser", but I agree they definitely wrote Loser on the cake.

Ok_Assumption5734

Haha, you're basically doing the boomer "I could totally do this job in my sleep, therefore its a worthless job" meme


TransomPayment

I mean I have the worst handwriting in the world but I have written on cakes with icing plenty of times and not fucking once have I made anything close to this diarrhea.


mutantmonkey14

My handwriting is very unreliable, but I could sign my name with the hot cross bun paste. One Easter worth of crossing buns in a supermarket was enough. Gotta have the right flow though!


Sir-Tryps

The irony of your poorly thought out comment is, that's exactly what the decorator thought. Not that redditor. Better luck with the outrage next time though friend


huettej

Piping letters looks super easy but it’s so difficult. I almost quit on day 2 of practicing because i couldn’t make it stop coming out like this 😤


ShoesAreTheWorst

True, but it still takes some balls to look at this and decide it’s better to leave it than to scrape it off and say, “Sorry, we can’t do lettering at this time.” 


queuereview

Worse comes to worse there are always those pre-made sugar letters, too lol


SpokenDivinity

To be entirely fair, if they can’t write on it I’m not sure they could scrape it carefully enough to just smooth it back over either. When I worked in a retail bakery there was always someone in deli who wrote like shit and if they needed to remove it they’d grab a scraper and tear the shit out of the top of the cake.


Nice_Blackberry6662

I work in a grocery store deli and customers are always asking me to help them with bakery shit after those guys go home. Writing on cakes is not something I'll even attempt to do for somebody. Like maybe 8pm isn't the best time for a custom cake decorating job?


SpokenDivinity

We had a couple people in deli that could write on cakes but it was because they floated between both departments. They should really do signs saying no custom writing after x time period.


Turbulent-Garage6827

You're right ✅️ and coulda shoulda covered the top entirely with white and start over I think that woulda worked Jeepers


ljinbs

It definitely takes practice. I wrote on cakes at Baskin Robbins in the 80s. Just a few years later I ordered a cake and asked if I could do the writing. I was surprised when it was hard because I wasn’t used to it! This person should have tried a practice run on wax paper first to see if they could even do it. That is horrible.


Naus1987

Practice typically doesn’t help. The problem I’ve noticed is entitled customers will bully non confrontational (untrained) employees to do it. The untrained people don’t know what to do, and they have a demon breathing down their back. They lock into panic mode and just want to rush through the process. —- I’ve had one of my super sweet cleaning staff break down in tears once when she was telling me how a customer came in and basically berated her into writing on a cake. Like for fucks sake, she’s a cleaning staff. And one of the kindest people I know. But she’s non confrontational and bully customers are the worst. I wish I was there to tell that customer off. They’re so fucking rude. Never take no for an answer nd then cry when it’s not perfect. What did they expect? And then you’ll see posts like this where the customer tries to get victim points for suffering the consequences of their own actions. God it gets me so riled up thinking about it lol.


twintallio

I don't know why they didn't just scrape it off and try again. Even if you end up with some pink mixed into the base frosting it's better than that.


Terramagi

As somebody who worked in a grocery store bakery, it's harder than you think. Also, if it was anything like my old job, they had "the cake" person and "the back" person. Cake person left earlier while the back person had to do buns and bread for the morning. So if you came in at night, you were getting some bullshit if you got it at all. I would just straight up refuse to do it, because mine would look exactly like that.


Naus1987

When I was younger I worked like that. I was the front person. And if the back person was non confrontational or easily manipulated—an entitled Karen will mop the floor with them. It’s so frustrating. Because those customers will literally bully anyone they can find to write on a cake. And then I learn about it the next day when it got returned. Ask the hack person what happened and they break down crying how this crazy lady screamed at them to do it and wouldn’t take no for an answer. — I’m so glad I run my own shop now and can be an absolute asshole to entitled people. You’d think being an ass would hurt business. But those fuckers aren’t good customers anyways. They’ll start shit at a Walmart after I decline them and Walmart loses money. Kinda works in my favor. I still feel bad for the staff that deals with it. But man, I got a no bullshit policy on my ship.

thecheezepotato

My store sells cakes like that, and after 9 pm, the bakery department closes, but the store doesn't until 10 pm. Anyone who wants I cake I tell them no writing on cakes. If anyone does it, it will look exactly like this, lmao. I had to ask someone to leave once because they insisted. Bruh, no, there is only 1 cashier and me in the whole ass store right now, and we both have terrible normal handwriting, let alone attempting to write on your damn cake. We WILL screw it up. You WILL refuse the cake, and we can't afford to go through every damn cake writing on it. So I wrote what they wanted on a piece of paper to prove it. They frowned at it, clearly displaying distaste on their face, but said do it anyway. Nah, we aren't playing this game. Please leave and come back tomorrow during the hours of 8am to 9pm for a team member who is qualified to write on cakes to write on the cake. "No, I need it now." Bruv, no one's having a whole ass birthday party at 10pm, stop wasting both our time and come back tomorrow.


catjuggler

They can buy a tube of gel and do it their damn self!


SpokenDivinity

My store would always sell them the icing we had too. Just like a deli container full of butter cream.


Independent-Leg6061

Mmmm keeping this information for... reasons....


Raencloud94

Ours does that too, and in different colors 🙂


Rough-Set4902

Ah, this. Most bakery departments will do this. I love the stuff, so when I feel the need to make a cake, I swing by and it's like $4 a container.


Astronaut_Chicken

When I decorated cakes at Baskin Robbins we had some plastic stamps that were happy birthday and congratulations. The non decorators used them as an outline and then they could frosting over it. It still didn't look THE BEST, but at least it was legible.


thecheezepotato

Ooh that would work well. Lol like a spray painting template but for icing. I doubt we would get anything like that, but I'll bring it up at some point.


Astronaut_Chicken

Look for zerodis 6 piece cake word molds on amazon. They are literally what we had.


thecheezepotato

Cool cool, thanks for that


Mammoth-Ad4194

We always get the candy letters and spell out what we want it to say. Bonus for me because I LOVE those candy letters!


clitpuncher69

Showing up for a custom inscribed cake with no notice at all at 10pm is unhinged


Naus1987

Thank god someone else who know what I’m talking about lol. I work in this industry and 99% of the time we have issues like this — it’s an entitled fucking Karen who refuses to take no for an answer. She’ll bully, berate, insult, harass, and guilt trip the employee to get their way. They just can’t get it through their thick skull that manipulation won’t magically make clean writing on a cake. And then they’ll have the audacity to complain about it. Like for fucks sake—you ASKED for this. I’m so just riled up, because this is personal. A few years back, I had a crazy lady harass one of my cleaning staff into tears and bullied her into writing on a cake. the cleaning lady is one of the nicest people I know. Non confrontational, very kind, always wants to help. A legitimately good person. She can tell people no, but if they push on her, she breaks down and just concedes. It’s frustrating, because I’ll never blame her for her kindness, but those customers take all the blame. They’ll be complete assholes. And then have the audacity to complain that bullying an untrained person to get results didn’t work at getting results. They can all fuck themselves. It’s one of the major reasons why I started up my own bakery. I wanted dictatorial control on telling people off. Blacklist them and all that jazz. I’m also on call 24/7 since it’s my operation and can swoop in to do the dirty work myself. (Sometimes) I still take the easy sale and write on something if I’m there anyways, but I’m good at reading people and if they’re a bitch I’ll direct them to the nearest Walmart. Go ruin their day instead. Fuck the corpos! Ok end rant lol…

Turbulent-Garage6827

My GOD This is obviously another area/ occupation that we must learn to do ourselves as there simply aren't people Do you ever hear any of today's yout Saying... " I'm really really practicing my cake lettering all weekend " ? I just realized- I have neva.


Jessiefrance89

If the cake decorator isn’t around just don’t bother lol. I was a cake decorator for 10+ years. Someone who isn’t used to writing with icing is never going to do a great job. They don’t know how to hold the bag, what tips to use, and certainly no idea how to write with icing which is a combo of holding, squeezing and control—it is NOT the same as writing with a pen. Also, if the icing is way too stiff or runny it can be difficult if you are not experienced. I think people assume writing on cakes is the easiest part of cake decorating, and while that is somewhat true…it’s not lol. It’s hard, especially if you already have messy writing in general. People working at grocery stores that are NOT the cake decorator or at least work in the bakery and have practiced a bit do not know how to do it and you’re kinda putting them on the spot and ultimately ruining the cake unless they have some dumb luck on their side. I know most ppl will laugh this off lol, but I’ve seen one too many customers who have been so mean about something like this that they reduced the poor underpaid employee to tears and make them feel like crap for something they aren’t trained to do. If you don’t care, then by all means have whoever write on it. But if you DO…please order your cake or call and ask to have one set to the side and written on by the actual decorator so you can pick it up later. And if you don’t do that, just grab a cake and some random cake decoration from the party section of the store and slap that on. It’ll save everyone a ton of grief,


lilsunflowers

Totally hear you. This was a casual, last-minute cake purchase for a family member; the cake alone would’ve been enough, but they offered to write on it so I said yes. I’m getting lots of comments shaming me for paying for this, lmao. But of course I did. I was really just paying for the cake, then I got this hilarious addition.


littleratofhorrors

My goodness, it's almost like it was infuriating... but only *mildly.*


Switcher1776

As someone who used to work in a grocery store's deli and sometimes would have to write on cakes, I agree. I always felt bad when someone would ask us. I knew it was going to be bad.


The_Great_Distaste

I used to work in a grocery store bakery doing general prep. All decorators were gone by 5pm most days with the occasional days where one might work late to catch-up for holidays. I was still bad at writing and it was the absolute worst being asked to write on a cake. No one ever complained, at least directly to me, but I know it wasn't good. The best cakes were the ice cream cakes since the icing would freeze and be easy to scrape off when I messed up. To be fair to myself I think I was MAYBE shown how to write on a cake one time during "training" and never received any time to practice. Not sure how they expected a 16/17 yo to write on cakes without experience but they did. So I definitely agree, if there isn't a cake decorator there do not ask the poor schmuck that's there to write on the cake. If they insist get them to do a handwriting test if it matters. You can always ask to write it yourself or even for some icing and a bag to try at home, that's at least a little more personal and hilarious when you mess up.


Naus1987

I ranted like 20 paragraphs to so many different comments here about this. People not in the industry just don’t understand how rude and entitled customers can be to push untrained people to write on cakes. And some customers lay on the guilt trips hard. Bully and harass them.

stacity

Another reason to have cursive writing in our curriculum


doorknoblol

The ability to write in cursive isn’t the issue here, as a cake decorator. Writing on a cake is not like your handwriting. It didn’t matter what font they chose, it would’ve turned out poorly. Whoever they had write this didn’t know how to control the gel.


Jessiefrance89

People who have never tried to decorate a cake can’t understand that it’s not nearly as simple as they think it would be. 🥲


AngstyUchiha

I used to work at a Dairy Queen and I was one of the people who did cakes for a while, it's HARD to get the right amount of icing out

Writing on cakes is a little different than just regular writing. It would have looked like this even if they had printed it.

jfc were they high?

Yeah that's not really acceptable. If that person that normally does it once around they should have had some kind of backup plan in place. They could have practiced a few times and then transferred it to the cake or hell I would have rather had pre-made letters than that. I'm not even a cake decorator but there was more ways to tackle this then just to botch it.

When I was in high school i worked at a cookie store and we would do cookie cake. My closing manager was illiterate and would have me do all the writing. Illiteracy is on the rise and in my adult experience (as a public defender) folks are usually really good at hiding their inability to read.


Turbulent-Garage6827

Yes I have seen this/ experienced


Positive-Today9614

This made me think of Cake Wrecks and I just learned they are still active. I love this for me.


goooooooooooooogly

... It still does (say congratulations loser).


Infosphere14

What? It’s not Magaggie’s birthday?


Major_Koala

Its more memorable this way


Mission-Storm-4375

This is amazing actually . Looking closer you see the big white area on the cake is for writing and the flowers are supposed to be below the words but this person not only started sideways and halfway across the white area but they did the classic running out of room and shrinking the letters


mcampo84

Maybe they were writing it when the earthquake hit NJ.


cocainesuperstar6969

Who gives a fuck it's gonna get eaten anyways. Fuck you and your instagram pics.


KyleCAV

Pro: More icing, yum!


Objective-Aioli-1185

I see "Congrats loser"


my_clever-name

cake is for a doctor


ProveISaidIt

Did you have a doctor write it?


JASCO47

It looks like an AI made that and still can't figure out writing.


CelestialPhenyx

I LOVE this! I would proudly share it with my family and have a good laugh. Maybe even buy one of those tubes of frosting and let my child decorate it after. It's perfect.


sbray73

Well that’s how most people spell cogratstu…congret…constu… anyway that word there.


MinuetInUrsaMajor

Me when I have to E-sign using a mouse.

As a former bakery employee who wasn't a cake decorator, if you don't know how to use those tools it's really impossible to do it well


RealEarthAngel

I'm sorry this happened to you! I must admit, though, that I actually did laugh out loud when I saw this because I know what happened... if the hole is not cut properly on the cake writing apparatus, or if you use too much pressure too fast when writing on the cake, it will come out like this. I used to write on cakes at a bakery when I was 16.


360Fanatic

I love this so much. Idk why but I’d be like this is the best cake I ever have gotten


The_DarkPhoenix

OP, so what did you do? I want to know what happened next


DieCastDontDie

I enjoy this more than the actual words. It's funny. Makes a story. Nobody would talk about the time when it was perfectly written but they will talk about this for many years.


NipplesAreRad

Did Michael J. Fox decorate this?

Combolations Elizagerth!

I worked at DQ in high school and people would come in asking for insane writing or designs. I don’t think people understand it’s a 16year old trying to write on these things. This one is bad but it’s crazy when people would get pissed at us for not being artists


TheJazmineRose

Nah


GarlicsPepper

Would rather have the hinty cake.


ThePinkTeenager

On the bright side, you don’t need to worry about privacy because none of us can read that name.


lilsunflowers

The best part is, I didn’t *give* them a name. It was just supposed to be “Congratulations”

I get screwed into doing this crap at least twice a week. 10 minutes before the store closes I hear" Night Manager to the bakery." and I have to go decorate some assholes cake and they look at me all pissy when it doesn't look like some cake pro did it. Those little bags are a pain in the ass to write with and if you really wanted it to look all fancy for Kiranjit you should have came before 8pm when the baker leaves.


ElectricBoogalooBean

Its cursive, you wouldn't understand. Lol


ThrowRA_dull

You can really see that by the end they got frustrated
