hmm I think maybe this might be the perfect desert for the wtf alchemy chick. Well wait this person might want a fair wage for making the tiny cat vomit thing.
I get it now-you serve this to her Marie Antoinette clothespin doll($20.00) at your little French Bistro party, twenty eight bucks total. Or go out for a nice lunch at a French bistro instead.
@#29 HomeAlone- I worked for years at various vet hospitals, and I concur. This has many, many qualities of “expelled from unidentified orifice of a sick dog” material.
I don’t get the whole fake, miniature dessert thing, especially ones that look like big boogers.
This would just be painful to watch my as I know my kids would attempt to eat these nasty things and I would be stuck cleaning up chunks of chewed up craft shit spit out all over my floor.
Spell the damn thing correctly… It’s Croquembouche or Croquenbouche (both rhyme with douche)… Got it…
Secondly…
“Note: I do ship internationally. Convo me for costs.”
Yeah… Because it is going to cost a fortune to ship your one inch “cake/dessert/pastry” pièce montée la merde back to France for a decent fucking burial…
I like the “German Chocolate Cake”, and the little pie in the bottle cap that she made. She does have some talent, but this thing is atrocious! It reminds me of that candle, the “Bukkakcake”, I believe HK called it, that was featured here some time ago.
@amazon – thanks for introducing me to my new favourite site. You know, aside from regretsy.
Although I must say their proper version still doesn’t look edible.
There IS a delicious French confection called a “piece montee”: a pyramid of cream puffs held together with icing and decorated with spun sugar. My mother (who’s French) made one for my sister’s First Communion.
I feel the spirits of my (French) ancestors arise and recoil in horror at the sight of this.
#61, I had never seen that particular cake wreck before, but I will tell you that I’m pretty sure I laughed harder at THIS than the actual cake wreck (or the Etsy “craft”)…and I quote: Croquembouche [CROCK-you-EAM-butchy]

CAKE OF POM POM!!!
May 18, 2010 at 4:33 pm
mmmmmmm hot glueee
May 18, 2010 at 4:33 pm
Moldy cake covered in glue?
May 18, 2010 at 4:34 pm
Materials
pom poms, hot glue, paint, wood, gold leaf, cake, croquembuche, dessert, pastry, marie antoinette, 18th century
So is it a sculpture or is it edible? If I have to try so hard to figure it out, I’m not buying it.
May 18, 2010 at 4:36 pm
The feared Red-Spotted Mold that grows on a wet sponge that has sat out to long….

Eat the Pom Poms
eat the Cheerleader
save the world
May 18, 2010 at 4:38 pm
Is this edible? Is this glue gun goo?
I’m afraid. Someone hold me.
May 18, 2010 at 4:38 pm
Send it to the Alchemy “no sugar” request. Probably will taste as good a anything made without carbs/sugar.
May 18, 2010 at 4:39 pm
It’s a sweet gum ball cake.

miniature vom-vom cake, handmade by Barbie herself.

Bukkacake!
May 18, 2010 at 4:41 pm
didn’t one of these get featured before? or have I been having deja-vu nightmares?
May 18, 2010 at 4:42 pm
It would look like a real croquembuche if the traditional spun sugar webs were to scale, instead of looking like a French giant loogied on it.
I have to give it a Fail.
May 18, 2010 at 4:42 pm
ooohhh…Barbie’s French Bistro Party… All I got was Barbie’s Soviet Soup Line playset…. my sad childhood…

@sud, I thought sweetgum the minute I saw that thing. Nasty
May 18, 2010 at 4:47 pm
@#12 S69: I think you’re right, and I’m glad I’m not the only one suffering from deja goo.
May 18, 2010 at 4:47 pm
sculptor69- I think this seller has been mentioned before, but can’t remember which item.
Now THIS dessert is cute…http://www.etsy.com/listing/19789959/mini-cherry-pie

Sorry, my Barbie’s only into pink layer cakes that match her space shuttle/minivan set.
May 18, 2010 at 4:53 pm
where have I seen this before?? Oh yeah, allergy season is upon us.
May 18, 2010 at 4:53 pm
#18 Hey cappysue! Looking at this made me think of one of your happy little penis paintings for some reason!
Hey HK- check this out..http://www.etsy.com/listing/36951898/edward-cullen-twilight-inspired
May 18, 2010 at 4:54 pm
Yum, hot glue and ass…
May 18, 2010 at 4:56 pm
@22 I think it is the complete lack of realistic anatomy that made you flash on the penis
May 18, 2010 at 4:57 pm
#24 I stared at it too long and it morphed into a penis!!!
May 18, 2010 at 4:58 pm
This deserves a soundtrack. A soundtrack consisting entirely of “HORK!”.
May 18, 2010 at 4:59 pm
BTW if this looks like any penis you’ve been in close proximity to, get thee to a doctor. Stat.
May 18, 2010 at 5:02 pm
Nobody move! I have to go photoshop something…
Okay, you can move, but I’ll be back in a few minutes with a photoshop thing.
May 18, 2010 at 5:02 pm
puke present from my yorkie was my first thought. She was the queen of mucousy vomit.
May 18, 2010 at 5:03 pm
Eight dollars? Maybe that’s normal, but the thing is only an inch tall. I think I’ll just make my own.
May 18, 2010 at 5:03 pm
#25 I wish it would just morph into some thing with a face.

May 18, 2010 at 5:23 pm
I don’t think I am ever going to look at a croquembuche the same way.
May 18, 2010 at 5:30 pm
Hmmm! Fresh cat vomit cake, complete with hairballs! Delicious!
But wait, look at her other stuff, it’s hilarious! I’m totally putting the Edward Cullen clothespin doll on my wish list this year!
May 18, 2010 at 5:37 pm
I present to you… my lame-ass photoshop!

May 18, 2010 at 6:07 pm
I’m pretty sure I stepped in something disturbingly similar to this, after one of the dogs had a sneezing fit!
May 18, 2010 at 6:09 pm
Nom-sea sponges iced with rubber cement?
May 18, 2010 at 6:13 pm
If Marie Antoinette saw this she’d be like, “Let them eat YEAAAARGH! What IS that?”
In French.
May 18, 2010 at 6:15 pm
Oh, this was my favorite scene from “The Fly” with Jeff Goldblum.
May 18, 2010 at 6:16 pm
Croquempuke is more like it.
May 18, 2010 at 6:17 pm
someone definitely crossed the streams here
May 18, 2010 at 6:53 pm
ISUS and Patty – your pics are drizzled in Awesomesauce! Long, loud laughter, here.

V&EDD, that’s the first time my photoshop skills have been referred to as “awesome” in any way other than: “That’s awesomely bad.”
Thinking of Goo…

they made croquembouche on that cooking school show with the french chef in LA over the winter. It looked nothing like this.
if I needed miniature desserts for some reason, I’d sooner get the erasers from japan for a buck apiece
May 18, 2010 at 7:43 pm
Every fucking morning my cats have horked up something like this…
May 18, 2010 at 8:00 pm
Looks like cockleburs covered in goo.

Me too, we should cover them in glue and sell them on Etsy.

Looks like the type of thing my cat vomits on the carpet in the middle of the night for me to step on in the wee hours of the morning.

Woah, that’s so weird, I was just thinking how it looked like an Alien egg. And Alien3 just came on tv as well… . . creepyness

@amazon-shoot, that thing looks like a croqueambush.
May 19, 2010 at 5:34 am
I’m going to make one out of Timbits™ and modpodge it. The kids will have so much fun pretending to eat it!

Origin:

If the balls crunch in (the) mouth, you're doing it wrong. ouch!

This thing looks like what was in my son and daughter’s noses back when they started pre school and belonged to the new germ of the week club!
