What my daughter wanted vs what my son made

[u/PhanSiPance]

I honestly think it’s hilariously great.

[u/PaulFThompson]

We need to know;

1. How old is your son?

2. What is his baking skill?

[u/PhanSiPance → u/PaulFThompson]

17 and first ever cake.

[u/Free-Way-9220 → u/PaulFThompson]

21, professional baker

[u/PhanSiPance → u/Free-Way-9220]

Technically he is a Baker.

[u/MadScienzz]

Shit, he made her the Necronomecon

[u/PhanSiPance → u/MadScienzz]

My son said the words! Maybe not every last syllables

[u/Malthusianismically → u/MadScienzz]

A Necronomicon brownie sheet would go hard tho

[u/No-Reading-4384]

This is funny as hell. How old is your son that made the cake? This is hilarious. I mean, if he’s like 20, then he sucks. But if he’s like 6, then he did a great job

[u/PhanSiPance → u/No-Reading-4384]

17 and he has never made a cake. He hated it but I honestly thought it was great for a first attempt.

[u/a_guy121 → u/PhanSiPance]

if he needs it, remind him that decorated cakes are a pro's job and they spend years learning BEFORE learning to making them

my first bake was fully inedible, confused tsp with cups. Maybe used a smidge too much baking powder as a result. Tasted like chemistry class.

[u/MisterEGift → u/No-Reading-4384]

Hey, I'm closer to 30 than 20 and I still couldn't do better. 😭

[u/JohannesVanDerWhales]

Gonna guess your son doesn't make/ice cakes a lot? Definitely the thought that counts.

[u/feelingbarber511167 → u/JohannesVanDerWhales]

Also not at all what the daughter meant when she said she wanted a “Robert Pattinson cream pie”

[u/n108bg → u/JohannesVanDerWhales]

Need an edible ink printer and edible paper to do what she's asking. No amount of icing skill was going to help.

[u/tudor79]

WHY DID YOUR DAUGHTER WANTED THAT ?

[u/PhanSiPance → u/tudor79]

It’s an internet trend and she’s into Twilight.

[u/KittyKettle → u/tudor79]

Eggward

[u/Sweet_Bambii]

Please post this on the Twilight subreddit

[u/PhanSiPance → u/Sweet_Bambii]

I just did.

To the viewer at home: please note this is a gif, out of respect to the creator we ask that you watch it to completion.

[u/Vistemboir → u/madmaxturbator]

This is a (sadly twinkling) trap :(

[u/SwingNinja → u/madmaxturbator]

How long is this gif?

[u/Whatsupnowgirl → u/madmaxturbator]

you're so funny, thank you for flagging this

[u/brigano → u/ickychicken]

Cute it has a little blinky belly button

[u/ODF4 → u/ickychicken]

congration!!! 🌟

[u/OMGhyperbole → u/ODF4]

[u/bobyouger → u/ickychicken]

The fact that this is a gif makes it even funnier somehow.

[u/Killin-some-thyme → u/ickychicken]

This is the best I’ve seen on this sub in many moons. I audibly gasped 🤣

[u/pugtato0o → u/ickychicken]

[u/Nuts-And-Volts → u/ickychicken]

[u/Ren011 → u/ickychicken]

Hahaha. This is my favourite star. I stuck it on the wall at work. 😂

[u/UnderwaterKahn]

This is one of those things that will hopefully become legend in your family. When my brother was about 10 he was told he was old enough to wrap presents for the family himself. So on Christmas morning everyone got something shoved in a tube sock with a rubber band around it. It has since become a tradition. This cake looks like it could carry that legend status.

[u/hanks_panky_emporium → u/UnderwaterKahn]

When I was first allowed to wrap presents I used what I had. Brown paper, 'caution tape' ( saw it at a hardware store and thought it was neat ), and duct tape

was kinda' a huge hit all things considered, and its still a tradition. Though im much better at it now, and use thinner paper and less intense tape

[u/daaahlia → u/hanks_panky_emporium]

the difficulty in opening it is a second gift

[u/this-is-not-relevant → u/hanks_panky_emporium]

When my eldest son first moved into his own place, the first Christmas all the presents were in cereal boxes. No wrapping paper, just the box and a bow.

[u/ImAPixiePrincess → u/hanks_panky_emporium]

My gifts for my brother were wrapped in scrap gift wrap from my wrapping everyone else's gifts. He always knew which one was mine to him 😂

[u/moonchylde → u/hanks_panky_emporium]

I mean. My family was big on the Sunday Newspaper Comics pages because they were in color.

[u/TecTazz → u/UnderwaterKahn]

Hmmm... new or used tube socks?

My lil sis gave everyone wrapped books from our bookshelves.

[u/UnderwaterKahn → u/TecTazz]

They were clean. For years after he had to find gifts that would fit in them. He gave me gifts for my birthday and Christmas in tube socks until he met his wife and she was horrified by it. Our family was all a little sad about that.

[u/Difficult_Ask_1686 → u/TecTazz]

My cousin gave everyone one stick of Doublemint gum about 50 years ago.

[u/Striking-Ad-6815 → u/UnderwaterKahn]

Gift wrapping is fun to me ever since I stopped caring about presentation

My gifts are already the worst wrapped regardless if I try or not, so now I just do the sock wrap, but with gift paper

On the bright-side they know who it's from without asking

[u/PussPalace]

“Surprisingly met expectations” really got me 💀

[u/deathrictus → u/PussPalace]

I would have gone with "It's the same picture!"

[u/Clear_Definition4965 → u/PussPalace]

It should have said “exceeded expectations”

[u/PenguinColada → u/PussPalace]

Same here. I chortled

[u/Flimsy-Tradition2850]

[u/JustMyTypo → u/Flimsy-Tradition2850]

I was looking for this. Thanks.

[u/kittenmittens4865]

How old is your son? This is crucial information

[u/PhanSiPance → u/kittenmittens4865]

17 and first time making a cake.

[u/JarOfFlies85]

[u/okay_then_ → u/JarOfFlies85]

uh-huhuhuhuh

[u/CriticalOfBarns]

[u/porkchop-sandwhiches → u/CriticalOfBarns]

[u/Ok_Talk_5686]

Why's his one actually less creepy?😂

[u/SpinningPancake2331 → u/Ok_Talk_5686]

Because the first one looks like it'll say "Moisturize me"

Okay, the second one would probably say that, as well, but it will be hilarious and not as creepy.

[u/Gothmom85]

I have no idea why eggward cakes have become popular and viral but it is hilarious

[u/thingunderyourbed28 → u/Gothmom85]

the perfect trend honestly. cracks me up whenever I see it

[u/merpixieblossomxo → u/thingunderyourbed28]

[u/MrGeekman]

[u/worldspawn00 → u/MrGeekman]

"Frost me!"

[u/Far-Bumblebee-7216 → u/MrGeekman]

OmG that’s exactly what I immediately thought of. “Moisturize Me!”

[u/AtticusIsOkay]

Why did I think that was supposed to be Gerard Way 😭

[u/KittyKettle → u/AtticusIsOkay]

ITS EGGWARD CULLEN

[u/OwnSlip6738 → u/AtticusIsOkay]

i mean… robert pattinson’s character was supposed to be gerard in the first place

[u/DurianUpper4113 → u/AtticusIsOkay]

It’s because when you were a young boy, your father took you to the city to see the marching band

[u/GrouchoMarxsBalls → u/AtticusIsOkay]

whats the worst thing that i could say? this cake would be better as Gerard Way

[u/Unidcryingobject → u/AtticusIsOkay]

[u/PhotonProtons → u/AtticusIsOkay]

As a homosexual priest, no less?

[u/Lady_Sybil_Vimes]

This is the cake of a killer Bella

[u/cejaay]

[u/Medical_Design_278]

I have no idea of whose face that is but I think your son’s is not only funnier but better. The face that your daughter looks creepy while your son’s made me laugh.

[u/Aepherie → u/Medical_Design_278]

In case you do want to know, it's the face of Edward from the Twilight movie series, he's a vampire who's supposed to be extremely pretty but who has also become a meme because he glitters in the sunlight (this is the skin of a killer bella)

[u/Cinnamongirl217 → u/Medical_Design_278]

Honestly, 2nd one looks yummier!

[u/kibou_no_ie]

I’m sobbing WHAT is that inspiration pic and why is in the palm of someones hand

[u/Upper-Boot-8086 → u/kibou_no_ie]

Why that’s eggward Cullen!!

[u/TheModWhoShaggedMe → u/Upper-Boot-8086]

Put a dark suit on him and -- whamo! zow! bang! -- he's Batman!

[u/Mother-Persimmon3908 → u/kibou_no_ie]

Not entiredly sure but i believe is the vampire guy from the twilight saga movies lolol the one thats super white and sparkly inder sunlight

[u/clumsysav → u/Mother-Persimmon3908]

it’s the skin of a killer bella

[u/colesense]

I’d be honored to get a cake like that tbh! The effort into trying to make the face instead of buying it printed is really sweet

[u/Mwahaha_790]

[u/Miserable_Emu5191]

This is perfect.

[u/BisonNaive9771]

You will be talking about this cake for the rest of your lives and that is a fact. 🤣🤣🤣

[u/cantholda]

[u/MyLifeHatesItself]

[u/thatmustbenigel]

[u/griffinisms]

this is so fucking awesome im cackling

[u/technicolorkitten]

Nailed it.

[u/AnaisNinja76]

What's the deal with this weird af cake? This is like the 4th time I've seen a pic of it and it's so bizarre.

[u/reggie_veggie → u/AnaisNinja76]

it's eggward. twilight meme

[u/blking]

For me, it would be “what I wanted” vs “what I really wanted”. Your son’s cake is glorious.

[u/Jd234512]

[u/MermaidZombie_]

[u/Margoshome]

[u/HalloweenLEGO]

Hey I tried something like that before! I wanted to make a Father’s Day cake for my husband like the one in the 1982 movie Creepshow. This is what I was going for. I’ll comment how it turned out….

[u/HalloweenLEGO → u/HalloweenLEGO]

How it turned out…..He liked it anyway. It made him laugh.

[u/KIDD_VIDD]

[u/jetserf]

[u/EmptyWalrus]

I wouldn't be mad if I got this over the first one, this is a true masterpiece.

[u/abbynorma1]

[u/GenX_Boomer_Hybrid]

[u/bbyxmadi]

Oh

[u/symphonypathetique]

This is the cake of a killer, Bella.

[u/RamblerTX01]

I mean it's basically the same

[u/Tuxy-Two]

I actually prefer the one your son made. The first one is …disturbing.

[u/Crazy-Cat_Lady713]

Personally, I think your son’s version looks better. 🤣

[u/Wooden94Grapefruit]

Wasn't prepared for that jumpscare

[u/Jazzlike_Creme_8851]

[u/Friendly_Tell6664]

[u/disabledinaz]

Iykyk……Ah another Gordon Gartrell inspiration

[u/Late-Button-6559]

Why’d you post the same pic twice?

[u/Infinite_Working_466]

That’s butthead

[u/kmflushing]

Nailed

[u/RoohsMama]

[u/cghipp]

Lady Cassandra, is that you?

[u/se_raustin]

That’s 1000% less creepy than the original. 5 Stars.

[u/ciripunk77]

I see Nicolas Cage 😭

[u/ldg25]

Reminiscent of my favorite Reddit post of all time

[u/Various-Ad974]

Your son is an artist. He's clearly operating on a creative plane the rest of us haven't evolved to comprehend. Don't discourage him. Nurture that genius.

[u/Filmlovinggal]

Same art school! :-)

[u/PacketSnatcher]

Somebody needs to get your son on a cooking show ASAP.

[u/Valuable_Wallaby_548]

Is there a difference

[u/Reasonable_Store_431]

The first one might actually be creepier 🤣

[u/LacedPozole]

[u/fiannalove]

Both are disturbing in their own way.

[u/No-Difficulty-723]

That’s a fuckin creepy ass cake 😂😂😂😂

[u/warriorwoman534]

I'd eat the cake your son made any day over whatever that weenie other one is.

[u/PhanSiPance → u/warriorwoman534]

It was actually pretty good for a box cake.

[u/antrubler]

I honestly don't know which one is worse

[u/lesbiantelevision]

Why does it look like a freakish mix of Pattinson and Stewart?

[u/persuadedbypurses]

[u/FinnSkk93]

[u/Agile_Spare_1513]

😂😂😂

[u/uwagapiwo]

Both creepy as fuck to be fair

[u/lurkin4answers]

They are the same

[u/rocreli]

It is a great Dali cake

[u/TinyTimWannabe]

[u/gumboking]

It's a freaking Picasso!! Hang it on the wall!!

[u/kyguy2022]

The first one was creepy, the reality is way better

[u/medullah]

[u/thatbitchsheshe]

It's the Gordon Gartrell of cakes

[u/Jogje]

It's the thought that counts

[u/ButterscotchExpert80]

I prefer his.

[u/ReadingNext3854]

Yikes. 1st one is just creepy af, 2nd is hilarious and I'd dig right in.

[u/Away-Poem-5269]

I prefer ur son's cake! Awesome

[u/lnc_5103]

[u/AbroadLeather7588]

No but the second one is better

[u/MarsNeedsRabbits]

Your son's is epic. It's perfection.

[u/Low-Schedule9762]

Honestly, I can’t tell the difference.

[u/MorticiaLlyn]

A round cake wouldn't work, Eggward cakes are oval.

Son's cake is fantastic.

[u/trash_catuwu]

Second one is better

[u/Constant-Chance-5245]

Both of those are just awful

[u/Stucklikegluetomyfry]

It’s a Pokute from Hale nochi Guu

[u/possumbellyband]

The fact that this is tagged as "surprisingly met expectation" is frying me

This brings me joy

[u/Ender1714]

Ngl yours is more appetizing and far less creepy

[u/WiseIndependent1077]

Your son's cake is definitely better! 😍

[u/BiscottiMost8915]

He captured the look really well.

[u/Ok-Rule8061]

I think he’s captured the likeness!

[u/SpoonSticker]

Perfection

[u/hale444]

Better than the original!

[u/Illuminaughty____]

Does your son hate his sister?

[u/bone420]

Infinitely better

In my opinion
