I'm in tears over this cake...
The Problem With Phone Orders

"Cakey Cake Bakery, Jill speaking! How can I help you?"

"Hi, I need to order a cake for my boss. We have a photo of him playing golf that we'd like to put on it, though - can you do that?"

"Of course! Just bring the photo in on a USB drive and we'll print it out here."

"Great, I'll bring it by this afternoon."

Later...

"Hey, Jill, what am I putting on this cake?"

"Oh, check the counter; I left the jump drive out for you there."

"Really? This is what they want on the cake?"

"Yeah, the customer just brought it in."

"Okey dokey!"




I should go to sleep...

1. Lol!!!!! There's a book with photos of cake mistakes.
I forget the title, but it's relatively new. I just saw it at Borders. It's full of hilarious stuff just like this. Thanks for sharing. That is truly funny!!!

3. It's probably the book from the site where I saw this
"Cakewrecks" (or at least a title with "cakewrecks" in it)

I like how they actually did a good, accurate job of reproducing the thumb drive.

I have been having a good laugh and have passed it along to friends who are bakers.
