Store bought cake with store bought frosting, you don't even need a recipe for this. Why does Foodnetwork insist on paying... "chefs" who don't actually cook anything?Read more

Frustrating!!
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I made this for a wedding shower last week and I want to say that it is FRUSTRATING when what you make comes out looking... NOTHING like the photo!!!! It looked like one of those plain white cakes in the store that is waiting to be written on when the customer orders it (but messier). I decorated it and put a ribbon on it but took it off because it looked silly. Tastewise, I have no idea whether it tasted good because no one wanted any since they were all on Atkins.Read more

SKIP THIS CAKE
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

Doesn't look anything like pictured. This is NOT a fancy cake -- it's just a store bought cake with canned frosting. Make a... better tasting cake and wrap some ribbon around it instead.Read more
