To pelt my cakes at this mum's head in the playground this afternoon? <fume>

The school are having a cake sale tomorrow and have BEGGED for donations of cakes. They have been Facebooking about how desperate they are all week as they want to make a dent in the £12,000 target needed for some new play equipment in the playground. One might think that flogging cakes at 30 pee each is not the way to make a dent but that's another thing...

I am pushed for time this week but I thought I could do some cornflake easter nests with some mini eggs on top as a quick alternative to baking and frosting two dozen fairy cakes. So I went out and bought the stuff (which I reckon cost more than they will get from the sales tbh) Then I replied to one of the FB begging messages saying "I will bring some cornflake easter nests tomorrow, will have about 40" Then one of the PTA wimmin replied "Ha ha! That's great but be prepared to take most of them home as they don't sell as well as real cakes."

Fuck. You. Bitch.

:(

x-posted with OP. PLEASE keep us updated.

GetOeuf and anklebiters, I'd buy all of those things. And some gardening gloves emblazoned with YOU WANKER.

issypiggle · 27/03/2013 13:39

choc cornflake cakes are the best. don't make them, or just make them for your kids. sod the lot of 'em

EostreChaoticResurrEggtion · 27/03/2013 13:39

Or get a pinny with "I'm with Bitch-face" on and stand next to her.

anotheryearolder · 27/03/2013 13:38

ALSO, they are holding the cake sale in the shelter in the playground. WTF? It is BALTIC. They are wondering why only 3 people are volunteering to help. What are they? Thick? Move the venue to a classroom or the hall and you might get more people to help, you thick cunts.

Oooh, getting in to it now...

I really want a chocolate crispy cake now. Not some shitty drizzle cake.

anklebitersmum · 27/03/2013 13:37

Get Ouef me too!! Grin and a floral Pinny with "Get Fucked" on it so I can look at it pointedly when someone interferes in the kitchen

kelda · 27/03/2013 13:37

Pelt flapjacks at her instead. The triangular shaped ones. They are the weapon of choice at the moment.

minouminou · 27/03/2013 13:37

But you will do them, right?
With the sparklers?

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 27/03/2013 13:37

Oooh, handbags at dawn.

She can get to fuck, can't she? I wouldn't even bother with a response, although I do love tutu's breezy 'OK then, I won't bother.' Grin

OP, if you bring some round to mine I'll put the kettle on.

Grin Tabulah. I want to do that one!

Have just replied on Facebook with "Oh OK, I won't bother then. Shame as I thought you were desperate?" then a nice passive aggressive :) to end.

My kids lick the frosting off of cupcakes and leave the cake, so I always go for krispie things rather than cupcraps.

i will eat both though

ICBINEG · 27/03/2013 13:35

50p is deffo the international standard price for bake sale cakes....or £1 for a slice of magnificent gateaux.

MiniEggsJumpedInMyBasket · 27/03/2013 13:35

I'd have replied 'Ok, I'll leave it then. No point making them when they won't sell. Best of luck with the cake sale'

HazzleMcDazzle · 27/03/2013 13:34

Well seeing as she's been so snotty on a public forum, she's going to look like such a prize dick when your crispy cakes sell out quickly then!

I'm organising a PTA cake stall for this afternoon, and would kill to get cakes like these. If you can get them over to deepest Essex by about 3pm I'll gladly have them!

GetOeuf · 27/03/2013 13:34

Oh my god I desperately want a tea towel with MOTHER FUCKER emblazoned on it.

Do you reckon there is a market for twee floral goods with swear words embroidered on.

CUNT napkins.
COCKSUCKER tea cosies
ARSEHOLE tabards.

olgaga · 27/03/2013 13:34

Gosh that is really rude.

I only baked cakes for the cake stall once after I saw the pathetic prices they charged for cakes I'd spent about £7 on ingredients to make, plus hours spent making them.

I now just go and spend money on cakes and tombola instead!

DontmindifIdo · 27/03/2013 13:34

NO NO NO! Don't put that comment given she's done this so publicly and you know her cakes didn't sell last time put:

"Oh, I thought last year the cornflake cakes sold out first and it was the dull things that no one really likes that were left - I seem to recall there was a lemon drissle cake left last year, I hope whoever made that has ben advised to make something a bit more popular this year!"

Back atcha bitch!

minouminou · 27/03/2013 13:34

Yeah, Baroness!

Mini Eggs, Easter chick, sparkler, cocktail umbrella.

Go on.....you know you want to.....

Cacks? Oh yes. All of the cacks all of the time.

OMG Katie brilliant!

Dont tell anyone but for 12 years I iced Tescos plain fairycakes.
I had a stash in the freezer and just got a tray out each time - iced them badly- thats the secret or they look too perfect and transferred into a tin of my own. Biscuit anyone Grin

tabulahrasa · 27/03/2013 13:33

I'd just send her a message back...

Ah well, they can go in the pile of cakes nobody wants then, next to your lemon drizzle cake - HAHA!

I mean she can't complain, look its got haha on the end and everything.

Iamcountingto3 · 27/03/2013 13:33

Yup, definitely bling the buggers up with every sprinkle & mini egg known to man and then practiced looking surprised & confused when they sell out before anything else. The wander round innocently saying "wow, x said these wouldn't sell - & the kids loved them - wouldn't have thought....?"

FayeKorgasm · 27/03/2013 13:33

OP. I would much much rather have a chocolate cornflake cake than a manky old fairy cake any day.

I can't believe how bitchy some people are. Definitely pelt her!
