A lady who decided to prepare her own wedding cake the night before the big day received online jeers from random people.
The bride may have saved hundreds of dollars by making the dessert herself because weddings can be exorbitantly expensive, but many others said it looked more like a children’s birthday cake or a volcano than a romantic wedding cake.
A video shared on TikTok by Laura, who is thought to be from the US, has amassed an astounding 3.7 million views since then.
She captioned the video, “Not sure if creating my wedding cake at midnight the night before my wedding was the best idea.
Wedding cakes in Australia can range in price from $300 to $1200 depending on the number of layers and the embellishments, but Laura’s homemade cake would probably have cost less than $30.
‘I’m getting married in two days, and today I’m making our wedding cake,’ Laura declared.
The two-tiered cake was constructed using Betty Crocker’s rainbow white cake mix ($4 AUD per box), and rainbow sprinkles were added the night before.
The varying sized tiers were made using three eight-inch cakes and three ten-inch cakes that she cooked.
“I am frosting our cake at this hour, which is midnight the night before our wedding. Although I have never iced a cake before, she said that it was looking cute.
The couple’s names were written in large letters on the cake as the finishing touch by Laura.
Others couldn’t help but criticize the homemade dessert, even though Laura was pleased with the ‘cute’ final product.
Are you kidding me? Because it appears to be more for a birthday,” someone wrote.
One person said, “I can hear your guest judging,” while another remarked, “No…just no.”
Another person acknowledged, “Not me believing you were a skilled baker and this was going to turn out so good.
However, some commended Laura for trying it and saving money by making it herself.
This is the sweetest idea, in my opinion! Cakes that cost a lot of money are overrated, one woman said.
Thank goodness someone is sensible and won’t spend $500 on a wedding cake. Let your beauty come through rather than your dessert. another composed.
A third remarked, “People are such jerks. I don’t recall anyone’s wedding cake from the occasions I attended. All that matters is whether you are satisfied with it. Today is your day!
In a different video, Laura addressed the naysayers by showing them pictures of herself smiling and cutting the cake on her wedding day.
