To think this cake is inappropriate

I don't understand, in what world, it's appropriate to make a cake (for a child's birthday!) showing the death of over 1500 people.

In 100 years time will we be making cakes of Grenfell tower?

@Greensleeves The Ally Ally O song isn't about the Titanic, it's about a vessel that sank in September and the Titanic went down over the night of 14/15 April. I think it's about a boat on a canal.

Definitely not worth being offended by. Titanic isn't like other disasters, it's taken on a pop culutre status way beyond that.

I’d rather have a Titanic cake than go and see Titanic The Musical which is an even worse idea😬

So is my son. His special interest is the titanic and he has asked for a cake similar. It’s so difficult when you get parents who do not understand.

I can't see anything wrong with it. This happened over a hundred years ago. And actually I'm impressed that a child has interest in the history!

Two year old thread so I expect the cake has long since been eaten
