I tried to make a baby shower cake using four £1.20 cakes from Asda – it was an utter failure

SHE’D been trying to save money by making a baby shower cake from four £1.20 ones from Asda.

But one woman’s attempt to turn some basic Victoria sponges into something to be proud of was an “utter failure”.

She took to TikTok to share a video of the attempt, in which she was seen having used long wooden sticks to secure the cakes on top of each other.

She then tried to use a pot of Mr Kipling’s Unicorn vanilla flavour icing to cover it, but as she did so, the crumbs began falling off.

“Trying to make a baby shower cake out of £1.20 cakes from asda,” she wrote over the clip.

And she captioned it: “Cake boss please forgive me for these cake crimes.”

“I have a feeling it’s not gonna work,” one person commented on the video.

Things didn’t get any better for the cake maker, as she explained in another video on TikTok.

“Yeah it totally didn’t work,” she sighed.

“We just had a bunch of crushed up cake and icing and it was a hot mess.”

In an attempt to save the day, they tried turning the smashed up cakes into cake pops.

But they didn’t have “enough chocolate to cover it all” or any “skewers”.

“And yeah, this is the result,” she added over a shot of lots of balls of cake dough nestled sadly on plates.

Captioning that video, she wrote: “utter failure. sorry again to the cake boss. and guy fieri too.”
