What more could a mum-to-be want at her baby shower, but a bloody, horrifying birthing cake taking centre stage?
Strap on your sense of humour and put down any food you’re eating, we’re about to walk you through the world’s worst cakes, all modelled on the sacred moment of birth. These birthing cakes are deftly decorated with chocolate sprinkles for pubic hair, fake, edible blood, severed dolls heads and of course a poo or two. These are the birthing cakes that you can’t unsee.
