50th wedding anivesary cake..with a picture of bride and groom.."ready to be cut "?

[bizzey]

My Aunt wants to organise a cake for my parents with one of those "iced photo" on top.

But it would be a picture of my lovely parents on their wedding day ....being sliced in half ...then quarter ,,and so !!

2 gold rings on white icing is enough isn't it !!!

got a thing about ripping up/throwing out old photos

[JessieMcJessie]

YANBU. Creepy and tacky.

[SavoyCabbage]

I wouldn't like it either.

[Stinklebell]

We had one of those photo cakes for my DD1's 1st birthday and I hated it

It felt horrible sticking a knife into her cute little face, I had to get someone else to cut it up

[bizzey]

Holla I could ..but then I have (still) got to eat them !! still could not do it to Ex mil !!

[HollaAtMeBaby]

I wouldn't like this either! Can you get the photo printed on a separate sheet of icing, stick it on top of the cake and peel it off before you cut?

[EverythingIsTicketyBoo]

I have actually thought this before, you have a picture on a cake, then you stick and bloody great knife through their faces and across their heads, chop off ears and generally just slice them up off to find picture of MIL

[Shnickyshnackers]

Yes, just have gold rings on the cake and a lovely photo of them both on a stand behind the cake.

[Bootycall]

no agree its odd and I wouldn't like it either. totally superstitious me.

[bizzey]

Thank you Anotherworld

[AnotherWorld]

YANBU OP

Would be odd for me too

My parents' cake at their 50th anniversary party had their wedding photo on. It looked ( and tasted!) lovely.

[IglooisnowinSheffield]

I always feel funny about eating the caterpillars on the kids cakes in case they wriggle on the way down. Oh wait, no I don't it's just sugar

[Berryglitter]

It's sugar, on a cake, you eat it. Unless I screwed up and have cursed my child by eating his birthday cake?

[Annunziata]

I am as superstitious as you get and even I would be fine with this.

[Juno77]

Still weird. It's just a picture.

[bizzey]

Thanks for the replies.
Yes I know I might seem a bit silly but 2 and 1/2 years ago dad was very ill and we did not know if we would even see this day.

To cut through a picture of them seems like ...well I don't know ...tempting fate ?

(BTW sorry thought I was in chat !!!)

[ddubsgirl]

the real pic isnt used its just an iced copy

[ExitPursuedByABear]

Oops. No.

[ExitPursuedByABear]

Gosh Barkis. Is that you?

[BarkisIsWillin]

YANBU

[WhatAPallava]

Yabu. It's only a pretend photo.

[Juno77]

YABU. And weird.

[Alisvolatpropiis]

Well, it won't be the actual photo, it'll be transfer. Actual photo will be safe and well OP

[sooperdooper]

Don't be silly

[ExitPursuedByABear]

It will be fine.
