Your opinon about this cake

This is from today from my FB page, so I am not trying to stir any made up pots (borrowed statement from Muzna) :smiley:

So some family has this cake made for one of their family member who recently came back from Hajj. Now apparently this would be cut and then eaten. What is your opinion about it? Is it ok, not ok at all or you dont care?

MODS, I did not know where to start this thread. Its definitely not a cuisine thread or a religion. Its not even an Image thread in my opinion. But if you think otherwise, please move

Re: Your opinon about this cake

it’s in a bad taste and a sign of jihaalat.

Re: Your opinon about this cake

I don’t find it a good idea. Not at all.

Kkf, when we can have cakes that shape like other buildings, why cake shape like kaaba is jahaalat

Maa sha Allaah ye umeed ni thi wese !!! :hoonh:

Re: Your opinon about this cake

Exactly! there’s nothing special about the kaaba, its just like any other building.

The cake designer missed the hajr e aswad …

On a serious note, bad idea. And no, kaaba is not “just another building”. You dont do tawaf around or face in direction of any random building, do you?

not a good idea

Just another continuation of copycat wannabe angraizes…

Re: Your opinon about this cake

I think I once read somewhere it’s not appropriate because it will eventually end up in sewers that is a disrespectful concept to the holy place.

Re: Your opinon about this cake

The little figure on the side of the cake, ha! Novelty cakes that are so literal tend to be more weird than not.
The family’s intentions are not wrong* so I wouldn’t grab my pitchfork just yet.

*this opinion based solely on the box of ferrero rocher hiding behind the cake.

Re: Your opinon about this cake

My opinion? The figurines are not to scale, they should have been much smaller.

Also, in very poor taste (pun not intended)

Re: Your opinon about this cake

What do you mean? because we’ll eat it and then ____ ?

I have no idea waht to think about this, but face cakes always kind of creeped me out–you’re cutting your own face and eating it. shudders

Re: Your opinon about this cake

^ And the baby shower cupcakes with the little babies on them, what the what, very weird.

Re: Your opinon about this cake

Yes that’s what I mean.
I almost posted about face cake too.. I find that distasteful and more importantly why would I want to eat someone’s nose? Or forehead for that matter?

Re: Your opinon about this cake

wait…they have body parts cake too??

i can imagine the possiblities with those ones :hehe:

Re: Your opinon about this cake

proto and party are right…there are inaccuracies…but you know what…otherwise it’s quite a good piece of art and I like the way they set up the cardboard background.

Re: Your opinon about this cake

I think it’s sweet.. if a bit missguided..
