They are Aussie, and kids anywhere will always like music... and sweets.

I did this cake yesterday.

I had to give the recipient a refund. She was not happy. Claimed that one of the head spikes had fallen off. Personally, I think one of her kids broke it. All four of the spikes were identical. Exact same thickness fondant etc, and well dried. Tested for strength. Oh well. Some people are bitches. She was very nasty about it. I think she was having a bad day...or perhaps life and needed someone to hate.

It looks awesome. Did that woman give back the cake??? You give back the money, she gives back the cake. Really, what a b*tch. If she kept the cake, then all she deserves is a discount. You've got a reputation to keep for your business, so I guess you had no choice but to give a refund. I'm glad you got another order though.

Good gawd. That makes her fall apart? An imperfect (in her mind) cake? I bet her kid had a great time! (sarcasm)

Jeebus. I never thought about how nasty some stupid moms can be. Ugh. Well, I think it's pretty cool. I guess that's the bane of the business owner, but it would piss me right off.

You keep on doing your art, Ali! You're quite good at this.

I told her to put it in the bin lola. I had no use for a cake that had somehow been broken.

Thanks IM. I intend to. I was absolutely gutted when i looked at my phone and saw the messages she had sent along with pics. Firstly that she would be so emotional in her responses and secondly because I could clearly see that it wasnt broken through any fault of mine.

Why waste a perfectly good cake? You could've given it to a homeless shelter. But I get what you mean.

Aliantha · 07-29-2014, 05:16 PM

We dont have anything like that around here Lola. Its a rural area between two major cities.

I spoke to my teacher last night and he said, "some customers are just arseholes". God I love him. Haha

Get yourself some chickens and feed them any unwanted cake (but not icing). Get more eggs to bake your cakes with.

Win-win.

We dont keep chooks these days. Mostly because of the dogs. And kids going in and out the gate, and lots of neighbourhood cats, including our own. There just too many negatives. Maybe when the cats are all gone and the little kids are bigger, or my husband leaves me. I dont think he would want chooks. I would love them.

Can't build a cage with a small enclosure for just two or three?

I can't imagine life without chooks!

xoxoxoBruce · 07-30-2014, 01:01 PM

If you want a big one...

Aliantha · 07-30-2014, 04:17 PM

I think it would upset my husband glinda, and one of our dogs is quite aggressive towards other dogs, and spends her days stalking birds in the yard. It would be a disaster i think.

Thanks Bruce. I had one like that once.
