Let’s roll up our sleeves and prepare for a world of cake fails – prepare for all sorts of giggles and awkwardness. Do you know the kind of cakes intended to create happiness and sweetness in a celebration? Here, they have ended up as comical flops.

The cakes listed here did not follow any recipe. They did not give a hoot about balance or neat frosting. In fact, these cakes went out of their way to be different and to land smack in the territory of cake anarchy. Whether it’s an awkwardly spelled birthday message that makes the recipient think they’ve entered Babel or a cake resembling abstract art rather than a delicious treat, these baked creations are here to giggle, snort, and whin until you’re blue.

Well, sit back, relax, grab a cup of coffee, and feast your eyes on these 15 epic cake fails—even if the frosting is not.

1) Very literal

Their thought process is like Happy Birthday ... on both. Got it! The epitome of customer service.

2) Literal file transfer

But what if your cake crashes, and you need a memory backup? Have you ever thought about that?

3) Sorry Belle

We think you asked for the Beauty and the Beast cake, and there you have it.

4) Budget-friendly

This emotional support cake is held together by dreams and hopes ... just like you.

5) Safe travels

Is this a goodbye cake, or are you celebrating the birth of a baby boy hilariously? A two-for-one special?

6) The Elsa cake

Let it go, let it go! That perfect girl is gone.

7) Extra island vibe

The cake is still tropical, and the party will be lit.

8) Celebration

Forget the cake, we just want to know the what the person did. And how do I do it, too?

9) P...P...Pikachu?

Our beloved Pokemon was killed after an intense battle. RIP. Also, we hate you, Team Rocket!

10) Happy Birthday, anyway

"It's Stephanie with a ph"—say no more. It looks like while Stephanie was talking on the phone, someone stuffed a pie in her mouth, and she blabbered Phtephanie.

11) Personal attack

Congrats on not dying. We are proud of you.

12) Congrats, ACPEC!

Why not write their research papers on the cake, too? I think we've enough space.

13) Youthful glow

You can even pass off as a 16-year-old if I take off my glasses.

14) Justin Bieber

Wait, what happened to the baby? What epic tragedy did you all encounter on the way?

15) Don't worry

Congrats on being 29. You will be of this same age for 10 years in a row.

If we can take away one thing from these missteps in baking, sometimes a hearty chuckle is better than the perfect cherry on top.
