Sorry to tell you, but wedding cakes are a lie

a baker on TikTok is blowing minds with the revelation that sometimes things that look like cake aren’t actually cake at all. On Oct. 20, the baker behind Butterdream Bakery in the U.K. made a video sharing a behind-the-scenes secret about her profession. Duetting another baker while they threw away a piece of styrofoam decorated to look like a cake, the baker revealed her “secret”. “A lot of the wedding cakes you see are fake,” she said. “We’ll wheel away a fake cake that’s decorated and everything and then cut up sheet cake in the back and then serve that to the guests”. Many people who also work in the wedding industry confirmed that what the baker was saying was true. However, people who don’t work in the industry were shocked, to say the least. “I feel betrayed,” one person said. “I’m mortified,” another person wrote. “I wish you never told me this”
