When you think of wedding cakes, you probably picture beautifully iced white, floral creations. But some bakers have other ideas. These wedding cake fails will make you feel sorry for the couple getting married, the baker who created the horrors, and the guests who had to see them. And if these aren't proof that picture evidence is always crucial before you pay for a product, I don't know what is.

A cake is the ultimate celebratory accessory. Whether it's a birthday cake, a wedding cake, or a graduation cake, every occasion worth celebrating is made better when there's a show-stopping cake to cut. And now, add to that list, divorce cakes. Because with 50% of marriages ending in divorce, a divorce cake is simply the follow-up cake for your wedding cakes. Because leaving a marriage that isn't right is something worth celebrating, and nothing says "Bye Felicia" better than an utterly fabulous divorce cake. Here are some of the more creative ones we've seen!

Internet trolls are some of the worst people out there. They are essentially cyberbullies who hide behind screens, projecting their insecurities onto other people by sending hateful messages. The most common approach we are taught when it comes to bullying is to ignore, ignore, ignore, and not give them the attention they are looking for. But one New York City-based bakery is taking a different approach to cyberbullies and is killing them with kindness instead. And by kindness, we mean cake.

Troll Cakes is a bakery that bakes chocolate chip brownie cakes iced with a troll's insult, which they then send to the troll, complete with a screenshot of the original post, after tracking down the troll's address. The aim is to remind them of the awful comment they left online, make them feel bad about it, but also give them a sweet treat they'll never forget. If only they added something into the brownie batter to make them think twice about leaving their next nasty comment! Please scroll down for some hilarious examples of their cakes.

Cake making is undoubtedly an art, and not something everyone should attempt. Especially if it involves any intricate design or detail. A Twitter account called "Cakes With Threatening Auras" contains cakes that look like they've either been made by a three-year-old or been taken from a horror movie. Either way, they're awful and deserve to be publically shamed. Take a look at this selection, and you'll see what I mean!

If you've been following us for a while, you know that I love some good cake art. We've had beaded cakes, dreamy buttercream creations, and even someone who puts Drake lyrics on the top of her cakes. Because why not? Our latest cake feature will have you dreaming of exotic vacations and faraway destinations because these cakes look like real paradise islands. Yes, the tropical blues and the dreamy greens will make you want to dive straight into these cakes. Literally!

Baking is an art form that few people are blessed with. If you're lucky, you can make cakes for your career, because what else is better than being surrounded by cake all day? But if you can't, then amateur baking is the next best thing and these amateur bakers are proving that they have just as much talent as the professionals. 

Everyone loves cake (right?). Not everyone loves Drake (for some reason). But what happens when you're a genius and combine the two — surely there's nothing NOT to love! That's exactly what @joythebaker did and her Instagram account Drake on a Cake is full of her beautifully decorated cakes each with a Drake lyric on top. The self-taught professional baker, food photographer and cookbook author combined two of her favorite things and all I can say is, I'm grateful for it. Check out some of her incredible creations below and when you're done, here are some more decadent delights. 

Buttercream Bakery in Sydney, Australia is co-owned by Kat Logan. She creates the most beautifully intricate, mesmerizing and unique cakes by doing something that not many other (if any) cake artists do; she paints with buttercream. Not only do her designs look too good to eat, but they look like they should be up in a museum. Take a look at some of her beautiful creations below 

The best kind of mix-up there is! Now 25-year-old Kensli Davis from Atlanta, Georgia, has a hysterical story that will be told for years to come! Talk about a memorial birthday! 

Kensli Davis's mom called the Dairy Queen bakery to order her a Moana-themed cake, but the employees misheard and prepared, quite artistically might we add, a marijuana-themed cake instead.

Complete with a My Little Pony, red-eyed and well.. baked. 

Regardless of the theme, that ice cream cake looks delicious and we'd love a bite.

Happy birthday, Kensli Davis! 

Much, much better. Doesn't mean you can't enjoy some more wholesome memes though. You can never have enough wholesome.

These are awesome!
