So... where do you put the candles?

If you Google the word "cake" and then click on images.
The second image you get is this:
Creepy huh?

P.S. No, I don't usually Google things like "cake." Beth sent me the link actually. I think she's Googling "candy" now.

You should visit the Cakewreks blog...much hilarity will ensue.

ick!

Remember a few years ago the e-mail that went around about "marzipan babies"? Turned out those were actually sculptures & not candy.

BUT if that's a cake - what's the occasion??? We just had an ugly baby? Congratulations on YOUR ugly baby? Hope your baby isn't ugly.........And who could bring themselves to EAT it???

Mom2haylil said...

Imagine if the cake was Red Velvet. Gross I would not eat that cake.

Unknown said...

I couldn't even slice it!

Allison Walton said...

Ali took my suggestion. Good suggestions run in girls named Ali/Allison. :) Cakewrecks is the best site ever. Just wait until you see the pregnant lady bust cakes. Oh, yes. They exist.

Amy McMean said...

check out this cool candy blog
http://www.typetive.com/candyblog

and keep your eyes out for the Coconut M&M's

Kristen said...

Ooh. I've seen that over at Cake Wrecks. That just crosses the creepy line a bit too much for my liking. Imagine having to cut into it. *shudder*

Godwin said...

as Ali said... http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/ it will so change your view of cakes :) She featured that cake with a few other creepy baby cakes

Sheila Bennett said...

Ok, I'll chime in with another vote for the CakeWrecks blog. It is definitely my very favorite blog! (no offense to your blog. lol)

Ali said it best - "much hilarity will ensue" after you visit CakeWrecks. :)

Luna Saisho said...

If the baby was sleeping on it's tummy, there would be a very obvious place to put at least one candle...

Mike and Lisa said...

Jorge,
Your blog is so entertaining. I love how down to earth you are. I'm a LOST fan too. It's fun to know a little bit about the real Jorge.

I got here a few months ago through a link from cakewrecks.

Thanks for letting us in on the commom-man-turned-celebrity but still is a regular joe perspective of your life!

poggy said...

That's... positively creepy :\

At least at the bottom of the page you get a link to Super Mario cakes: http://geekcrafts.com/tag/cake/

Melin said...

Brings a whole new meaning to the term Babycakes. Creeeeeepy.

Lisa Deon said...

"Creepy" is a bit understated, I think.

"OMG, I'm never looking at another cake or another baby the same way again!" is more like it.

Please Type Legibly said...

OMG....who DOES this?!? LOL Tell me no one has ever used these guys for a baby shower. Please. Lie to me if you need to. WOW. LOL

Anonymous said...

Clearly the baker has no idea what he or she is doing. You put the baby on its' side and stick the candle in the baby's ear (ear candling).

Durr.

Ugly kid cakes are all the rage now, apparently.

Petra said...

Is that a Benjamin Button cake? That is one seriously OLD looking baby face!

I think I might have nightmares!

: ) P

SMH said...

I love Cake Wrecks too! It's on my RSS feed, right along with Dispatches from the Island :-)

OurWanderingAdventures said...

Ewwwww.....

Freak said...

Hehehe, Beth. It is very, very creepy indeed.
Hugs!

JManna said...

Wasn't that dude attached to some other dude in Total Recall?

Anonymous said...

I imagine Jorge probably already knows about Cake Wrecks. That's where I learned about his blog in the first place. :) (There's a "Sunday Sweets" post about Lost's 100th episode cake.)

Danna said...

ICK!

Lynn Faruque said...

That is just yuck~~~~

Jenni King said...

that's so scary. and morbid when you think of cutting into it.

Amanda @ Serenity Now said...

That does belong on Cakewrecks! :)

You might like this painting. Friend of mine shared it on my Facebook in case you can't see it well. It is very good, at least I think so.

Don't know your politics but you might like it.

Christina Bauer said...

Wait...that's a cake?!?! Sooo creepy! And who would want to EAT a baby-cake! Oh, now I have thoughts of Sweeney Todd in my head...

Sue Wacvet said...

Damn. I just spent 15 minutes looking at pictures of cakes!

wharfrat said...

A tad bit creepy I say.

IslandPearl said...

Not EVEN Sweeney Todd. Tres weird.

BTW -- Loved your pic-to-pic in People. And the piece in TV Guide. At least I think those are the right references. Just got back from China and catching up on my magazines...they can run together a little bit.

Anyway...nice to see your press.

Maija said...

That looks more like a Benjamin Button kind of baby than a normal baby. Disturbing.

Caroline said...

Yeah, and this was the fourth Google picture under "haircut." Not helpful when I'm trying to figure out how to cut mine, but good for a laugh.

Clare said...

Imagine cutting it - and then having to eat like the face or a foot... no thank you.

I would never eat THAT!!!!
Btw, Matthew Fox is comming to "El hormiguero" tonight. I hope they make him a better interview that yours... that was... very embarrasing for spaniard fans of LOST... Anyway, I´ll upload it to Youtube if you´re interesting. My account there is "EzawynTLK" :)

Unknown said...

dibs on the nose :P

Nancy said...

Frankly, this looks a little like that guy Chuckie. Scary.

Nataly said...

It's young Ben)

Jan said...

La verdad es que conocía esa tarta... que miedo daría comerse ese bebé, aunque sea de azúcar! Aunque confieso que fue la tarta que hizo que mi madre y yo nos interesáramos por la decoración de tartas. Jeje ;P

Me encanta tu blog! No dejes de escribir ;)

Topanga said...

Good lord!! Words escape me!

bgprodarts said...

You put the candle in the mouth of course. In icing it should say "Smoke'em if you got'em!" It's in bad taste as it is so go all the way.

Avinash said...

Is that the cake Michael Jackson has on his birthday?

Sorry.

Pam said...

er..that's disturbing.

MFonvielle said...

I saw that previously on the much loved Cakewrecks blog.

Here's a video of the cake actually being assembled. Creepy!

groovyghosthunter said...

Saw it on Cakewrecks. Ughhhhhh

mel said...

Hi Jorge, Lost is an excellent show it is the only show I have watched from the start and have not missed an epiosde. That cake is weird umm maybe you can put a candle in it's mouth lol. That's a good question though.At first I thought that baby cake was one of those dolls that is surpose to look like a real baby. Though that cake baby's face also looks like yoda from star wars. My husband and I am coming to Oahu on the 2nd of july for our honeymoon, we can't wait; any advice or tips?

MissBeaHaven said...

I visited the blog Cakewreks, and omg I have lost my desire for cake, thanks to you and your babycakes and other left to the imagination cakes. I am now moving on to candy. I should be thin by the end of summer. with this new diet aid.

em for mighty said...

should eating a faux baby be the proper way to celebrate a birth?? i assume this cake is for baby showers...maybe it's for baby-eaters?

Loreathan said...

Scary as hell!!!

sherri said...

Talking about Cakewreks, that is where I actually found out about your blog... http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2009/02/ace-of-cakes-gets-lost.html

Carmen Lawrence said...

erm... that's really creepy! Who would eat that?? Here's a baby cake! Yum!

Andrea said...

What is wrong with these people? Since when is it ok to eat a baby? DUH! I agree with the first person...you should check out http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com, they constantly have funny things on there like this one! :)

Charmaine said...

Amen to all the other Cakewrecks suggestions... You'll find many more cakes like that!

Paul Spooner said...

I agree with the Total Recall assessment; 'Quaid, turn on the machine'.

Whit said...

OMG. Burn it! Burn it with fire!!!

Braden Rosner said...

I...I have so many conflicting thoughts right now. This is by far the weirdest thing I've seen today. That's saying a lot considering I live in Toronto.

mamafrugoli said...

I second the cakewreks blog. I laugh out loud every time I read it!!!!

Rumbero said...

Jajajaja, la verdad que da un poco de miedo.

A propósito, el Hormiguero de Matthew Fox ha sido genial, ha alucinado en colores, jajajaja, tienes que verlo mañana por youtube!!

Joss said...

xeyedmary said...

ditto to Cakewrecks blog!

Christina M. said...

I give yet, another cheer for CakeWrecks. The site is an awesome celebration of all sorts of wrecks, and is where I first found the link to this blog. (Which was just re-twitted by Jen, btb ;-)

As for the cake, I already know it's going to give me nightmares tonight. And I like babies. Just not this one.

Unknown said...

That is just scary!

B.R said...

A CAKE? That cake is really a lie! PORTAL REFERENCE ENDS HERE.
HEHE. THAT'S ONE UGLY CAKE-A-RINO, J-MAN!

Green said...

"So...where do you put the candles?"

In the vigil. This infant doesn't have long for this life.

Quitter said...

You must go to the cake wrecks blog!

*~Dani~* said...

Well, the blogging world has come full circle. I found your blog through a Lost cake on Cakewrecks and now you are blogging about a cake I saw on Cakewrecks. My life is complete.

Anonymous said...

I must repeat the Cakewrecks love.

Aunt_B said...

Yikes! I don't think I could bring myself to cut it...imagine serving your gramma a piece of baby face!!

Kathi said...

It's creepy now but if you leave that cake sitting on a kitchen counter for forty years or so it'll end up bearing a remarking resemblance to Brad Pitt...or so I've heard.

James Hernandez said...

Jorge,

I say it looks like an old/young Benjamin Button!

redelf said...

EWWWW!!!! That is nasty and that baby looks like one of those monster babies that eats you!!!!

Jenn said...

wow... looks i'm not the only Jorge and cakewrecks fan! :)

writtenwyrdd said...

There's a You Tube video of how to make that baby cake. And you should check out Cakewrecks.

Furball said...

It could work as a halloween-type cake... and then you put the candle right *through* the forehead.

Bon appetit!

frau hui said...

Try it with 'sweets'

Little Silver Stars said...

Okay, just had to share, but the other night I was searching for "ugly cakes", (no real reason actually!) and this same picture came up and I was going to post it on my blog!! Coincidence.
Anyway, that is one of the most frightening things I can imagine trying to eat. I think Adrew Zimmern should be served this cake on Bizarre Foods, even he could not stomach it, I bet.

Judy Schwartz Haley | CoffeeJitters.Net said...

I'm going to have nightmares now

Tink1272 said...

Just so you guys know - this cake originally was made to look like a stillborn baby for the mother that lost it. It's creepy, though. I don't know why anyone would want to do that.

In 1981, ed hardy and his wife formed Hardy Marks Publications. In 2004, Christian Bale licensed the rights to produce the high-end Ed Hardy UK line, which is based on Hardy's imagery. Prior to the ed hardy clothing line, Bale was the Head Designer at Von Dutch Originals, which marketed the imagery of Kenny Howard. Don ed hardy, commented, As demand for my artwork continues to skyrocket, I felt it was ed hardy clothing time to take on a partner that could help me manage the demand and opportunities for the ed hardy T-shirts name. Iconix is at the forefront of brand management and clearly has the capabilities to dramatically grow the Ed Hardy UK business. I'm thrilled to have them as a partner. Cheap Ed Hardy are located in everywhere. We also believe that by owning the brand alongside ed hardy clothing, the founder, there will be opportunities to further leverage his iconic name along with his new artwork.
