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!

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.

Siân-Amy Pettit is a part-time cake artist whose cakes can only be described as incredibly beautiful and intricate works of art. She uses a technique called dotting, or, as she calls it, pointillism, giving a bead-like finishing and exquisite detail. Each cake looks like it takes hours and hours, and the texture, skill and creativity are out of this world. Scroll through and be as mesmerized as we are at her talent. 

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. 

Divorce may be a difficult pill to swallow, but it brings closure to a failed marriage. Not everyone spends month weeping after their divorce; some people celebrate their freedom with divorce parties and hilarious customized cakes.
