Just picked up a cake I ordered for my girlfriends birthday. It was supposed to be a white cake with a toasted buttercream icing, but it was the most odd cake I've ever had. Let's start with the high points; the icing was AMAZING and it was decorated beautifully.
Now the low...As soon as we took our first bite we both said it tastes like shrimp. Yes, shrimp. I have no idea what in the world would make a cake taste like that, but it does...it's inedible. It smells odd too and completely crumbles apart. I had such high hopes but was completely disappointed. I might try again in the future, but not anytime soon.
