Don't open in front of children.

I think it looks repulsive, but would give it a go.

I must be missing something because it looks like a normal iced Danish to me so yes.

Is that supposed to be someone's belly complete with piercing?

Dd wants a horror cake for her birthday so I'm currently thinking of ideas

Good job I'm not fond of any type of cake because both examples look absolutely vile!

The wedding cake one is just horrible and nasty.

I love cake, or used to before starting a diet.
I wouldn't eat that, it just doesn't appeal to me.

Yes.

I haven't even read the OP. You asked if I would eat cake and the answer is always yes.

The first one just looks like cheese on toast with tomato sauce underneath. Not a very good production to publicise a film or whatever it's supposed to be publicising.

How on earth did they make those severed heads!?Confused I'd love to see a cross section of it too to see what's inside. I'd eat it, but only if it was sponge as I hate fruit cake.

Absolutely. There is nothing you could do to a cake to put me off eating off (well, smeared bodily fluids aside obv)

In the interest of making scarey cakes, not quite so scarey, here's one I made earlier! Grin

That is brilliant Maureen! I'm so jealous of people who can create fantastic cakes - my cake decorating doesn't extend beyond chocolate buttercream and smarties Sad

They look as though they involve a lot of fondant/sugarpaste, so I probably wouldn't eat them as that doesn't taste good.

I can't even do a butter cream and smarties.

Maureen that's amazing.

MaureenMLove I'd eat that!

Things that look like body parts, eh.. depend on how the cake tasted. If it was good cake I could get past it. But generally, imho, fondant isn't the most appetizing thing to eat. I'm not sure I could get past the fact that it looked like a real person.

I can however, admire the artistic quality of those cakes and understand the hard work that went into them. I'm just not sure I'd eat it.

Too far in the uncanny valley.
