50 Hilarious Pictures Of The Worst Cake Failures That Have Ever Been Shared Online

You've most likely heard of His Highness, the ruler and queen of all scrumptious cakes covered with whipped cream, known as the hedgehog cake. It all started as a genuine baking failure by someone who thought that making such a pastry would be a piece of cake.

It quickly turned into an internet frenzy, with people purposely making the most exceedingly terrible hedgehog cakes you’ve ever seen. Yet, a hedgehog cake is actually a far cry from the main way a cake can go from great to manageable and then drop to disaster.

To be honest, the confectionery is the ideal location for the most amusing, insane, and surprising fails deserving of a place in the camera roll hall of fame. The infamous hedgehog cake is one of the best examples of cake fails.

With countless, ridiculously awful efforts to recreate this palatable monster, it has turned into a meme. There's an increasing number of people who are embracing the horrifying appearance of the hedgehog cake and trying to make their own versions of it.

So today, we’ve put together a collection of the most absurd cakes that prove you should be cautious about what you wish for and not take for granted the carrot cake that the bakery near you always nails. So grab your beverage, strap in, and enjoy the cake ride.
