To ask if you could punch a cake, which cake would you punch?

[littlemissbunny]

Inspired by Marmalades thread, I have been thinking about how much fun cake punching would be!

I would like to punch a Victoria sponge, all that jam and cream splattering would be very satisfying :o

So what cake would you punch?

[Inertia]

Coffee and walnut. Two of the world's most hideous foodstuffs in a cake that looks deceptively like nice carrot cake.

Lemon drizzle cake got an unfairly hard time on that thread - I love lemon drizzle cake (no it's not me :) )

[NotAnotherPackedLunch]

Can I be awkward and punch a bakewell tart instead of a cake?
They always look very smug.

Definitely those god-awful giant cupcakes - because hand-held sized piles of sickly sweet disgustiness arent awful in their own right someone decided they could be BIGGER. Bleurgh... Plus all that icing would make a really satisfying mess....

[hazeyjane]

Battenburg, I would batter a battenburg.

[BeingAWifeIsNotForMe]

Rum Baba quite like rum punch

[LeonardoAcropolis]

The chick cake in Asda

[Emilythornesbff]

Well definitely not a cornflake cake - too shardy with possibility of splinter injury.

Probably a Madeira cake (large) for its shock absorbing properties. Also, no frosting to have to clean from hands.
Yes, Madeira cake please.

[Badvoc]

Any cake with vegetables in
I would punch the fuck out of a courgette cake and enjoy doing so.
Vegetables in cake!
Gah!

Overpriced cupcake. Particularly if it was a millimetre from the cake maker's face.

[ShatnersBassoon]

A boring madeira. It's a cake for people who don't know what they like.

[CryptoFascist]

I would karate chop a Yule Log.

[WowOoo]

Meringue.

[TastesLikePanda]

Coconut cake.


Especially when it is masquerading as a naice cake!

[Emilythornesbff]

The other good thing about punching a Madeira is I don't think anyone would miss it. As indicated by shatnersbassoon

[ShatnersBassoon]

Meringue is definitely not cake. You have to choose again, WowOoo.

[Madamecastafiore]

Battenburg, feckin vile stuff. Pink and yellow and marzepan, Bleugh.

[LeonardoAcropolis]

Any cake made by Paul Hollywood

[seriouscakeeater]

Chocolate fudge cake from cost co but then I would lick it of my hands

[WillYouDoTheBunnyHop]

A black forest gateau, who ruins a perfectly good chocolate cake with cherries? Plus it would be satisfyingly squidgy

[GetOeuf]

One of those barbie cakes where the cake is Barbie's dress. Punch barbie right in the kisser.

Or a wedding cake, a three tiered one. Smack the top tier right down through the levels.

Very pristinely iced royal icing christmas cakes could do with being scribbled on in black pen.

[Beehatch]

One of those smug Red Velvet jobbies for sure, smack them upside their evil beetrooty souls I would.

[ItsAllTLAsToMe]

Any nutty cake. FFS, why ruin a perfectly nice cake with nuts?

[seriouscakeeater]

Birthday cake.

I'm allergic to eggs y'see so practically all cakes are off limits but birthday cakes hold a special place in my heart. I've had to endure hundreds of birthday parties watching everyone scoff cake. [Sob] even my own. (My parents insisted everyone would be expecting cake).
