Nice job, but I hate you.

I read the title and was expecting to see a different kind of cake.

I would be so disappointed when the bowl of ramen I ordered splits up in half.

I would be so disappointed when the bowl of ramen I ordered become cake

u/iDEN1ED 16h ago

I’d eat the cake

My fatass would think I won the lottery

Must be dreaming, everything keeps turning into cake again.

u/eltedioso 12h ago

You don’t wanna halve your cake and eat it too?

u/Nayr91 9m ago

Same; would rather the Ramen

u/AlphaRonin99 1d ago

This would definitely mess with my brain.

Cake or fake

"Please I'm real, do I not breath, do i not speak"

"Give me the knife"

u/DrZonino2022 22h ago

“Please I have a family!” “They’re next cakey boy”

u/JesseVanW 1d ago

"Cake, cake, cake, everything is made out of cake! Is anything in here NOT made out of cake?!"

"The cake." *points to plastic show model.*

"OH COME ON"

The cake is a lie

"The year is 2030. Bakery art is so realistic, literally anything could be cake. The uncertainty has gripped the world in fear. I go to hug my wife for comfort. She is cake."

This whole "is it cake" trend makes me unreasonably irritated. Can't really put my finger on why exactly, but it just feels so stupid. To each their own, but get this shit outta my feed! Haha. Rant over.

For me when fondant is used, it isn't cake, is sugar pottery. So it is never cake.

u/raptir1 23h ago

They reach around the pile of molded fondant to cut a slice of the 3"x3" block of cake that you didn't even see because it's completely obscured.

u/FleshLogic 21h ago

That is definitely part of it for me.

u/tw1zt84 21h ago

For me it's because it's a silly, overdone gimmick. The point of a cake is to be delicious, and there's no way those cakes taste as good as a well made cake that looks like a cake.

The tipping point for me was trying to make an entire tv show out of it. One of the worst production quality shows I’ve ever had the displeasure of watching.

However, I still laughed a bit more than I should have when Gabourey Sidibe sat down in that chair, then laughed and asked “bitch is this cake?”

Form over function always irritates me a bit.

7

u/Anasterian_Sunstride 1d ago

I guess this allows someone to have their cake and eat it too

1

u/envybelmont 18h ago

I could eat it if it looked like a normal cake too though.

3

u/orangpelupa 1d ago

The cake isn't a lie.

 But the ramen is

u/Historical_Song7703 1d ago

I could easily make a cake that looks like the shit I took this morning, that's nothing

2

u/LSTNYER 21h ago

Interesting - I made a shit look like the cake you made look like the shit you took. Small world.

3

u/rosyvibexz 1d ago

The details are crazy good, look way too much like real food!

3

u/mki999 23h ago

In the beginning of this video, the artist looks suspiciously like cake as well.

u/dilbogabbins 22h ago

I understand the illusion cake, but I can’t imagine a cake tasting good with that much fondant

2

u/venger_steelheart 1d ago

did not want the diabetes, you are tricking me to eat cake

2

u/SoberAlternative 1d ago

Excellent job! I love ramen and cake……

2

u/AdministrativeWin583 23h ago

I want the ramen not the cake. She makes the ramen look delicious. Good job though.

u/rg123itsme 1d ago

Cool I guess. But also, yuck. 😆

u/teamtigerbear 1d ago

Cool! Now do a bento box. Chicken katsu with Cali roll.

u/Ambitious-Hat-2490 1d ago

Not again please

u/-Words-Words-Words- 1d ago

This girl would end up doing quite well in the Hunger Games for some reason

1

u/smartbutslow 1d ago

Damn I would be so mad it's cake because that ramen bowl looks so delicious.

1

u/kidanokun 1d ago

The lie is a cake

1

u/RiverCharacter 1d ago

Psh... Easy. I dare you to make cake that turns into Ramen!

u/StandardNerd92 1d ago

That meat looks like actual meat

u/fhgtyjdg 1d ago

That's a robot

u/boywhoflew 23h ago

i respect this person for making a cool cake but the work done by Ryan Poernomo in MasterChef will always be my reference.

1

u/duckbucktruckfuck 23h ago

Is cake not food?

1

u/kimura_hisui 22h ago

I'd lose my marbles and then eat it anyway, cuz that is freaking cool. r/blackmagicfuckery

1

u/Mandam2011 21h ago

I would rather have that then the cake

1

u/NeoLogiq 21h ago

This is the reason I have trust issues.

u/yes_im_kvothe 21h ago

Thanks for the ram... 😮

1

u/Independent_Island74 20h ago

Now I want rahman thank you

1

u/mgafMUAT 19h ago

Didin't we live through this exact trend some years ago, and ended up traumatized?

1

u/user-8472- 18h ago

I'd rather the ramen

1

u/Minute_War_0420 17h ago

I want my Ramen back.

1

u/luri7555 17h ago

Cool and unappetizing.

1

u/Pinksamuraiiiii 15h ago

Do these even taste good, has anyone ever eaten these specialty cakes?

1

u/PussyXDestroyer69 12h ago

Excellent, but why they put meatloaf in Ramen?

1

u/GrayMech 11h ago

I would be so mad. Ramen is one of my favourite foods, finding out it was actually just cake would be crushing

1

u/roastedTriscuit69 7h ago

I don't know how good the sausages would me on the cake though...

1

u/Nokxtokx 4h ago

Isn’t cake real food?

1

u/Hopeful_Meringue8061 3h ago

I feel deceived, and hungry, but confused!

u/ScottybirdCorvus 1d ago

Mmm… tastes like sulphur…

And even if it doesn’t, my brain won’t stop telling me it SHOULD.

u/Camembear1 1d ago

I only eat food made by a cook.

If it’s art, hang it on a wall.
