For those of us that have gotten married, you no doubt remember the stressful, time-consuming process of sampling cake after cake in an attempt to pick the absolute perfect confectionery treat to symbolize the union of love and bonding. We pay exorbitant prices for an extravagant cake, only to take a few bites, smear it on each other's face and then cram it in the freezer for the next 12 months. Nevertheless, its as much a part of the wedding-planning process as picking out your color patterns and the song for your first dance. Theres an interesting new trend developing among bakeries, one which is providing some hilarious results. The cynical confectioners among us are now offering a line of divorce cakes, featuring designs meant to commemorate the end of matrimony. Because when youre feeling down and out and faced with the dissolution of what was once believed to be a lifelong commitment of partnership theres nothing better to cheer you up than cake. And not just any cake, but one creatively adorned with elaborate designs and messages that belittle the ex-spouse and serve to make the divorcee feel better while enjoying a mouthful of sweet goodness. Its a brilliant idea conceived by evil baking geniuses who prey on our emotions by shoving pastries in our lonely mouths. Check out these 15 delectable symbols of love gone wrong.
