Multiple people pulled from rubble after building collapses in Brooklyn: FDNY
A cake like this may not win a baking contest, but it might take the No. 2 spot.
On Nov. 3, Minneapolis–Saint Paul-area resident Katee (@kh21mama) posted a photo on Threads of the ice cream cake she made for her husband’s 40th birthday, finished with a sugary topping that looks like something … far less sweet.
“I had this idea to ‘pipe’ the chocolate Oreo frosting onto the homemade ice cream cake (with the intent to spread it around afterwards) …. but, I fear, I may never stop laughing at the results 😳🤣🫣,” she wrote.
She later added, “My kids have dubbed this ‘the poop cake’ 🤣🫣.”
The photo shows Katee’s ice cream cake topped with frosting that indeed looks poop.
On the post, Threads users responded appropriately with bathroom humor.
“hehehe, when you gotta go… 😁😂😂,” one joked.
Another described it as a “Kitty litter cake.”
“I can see kids across the land requesting ‘The poop cake’ 😂,” someone else commented.
Katee showed her attempts to fix the cake, which went from “marginally better” to an Oreo-topped version.
Someone suggested she add a card that reads, “holy s— you’re 40.”
Katee says she bakes funny or unusual cakes for her family — usually on purpose — and she’s made a version of this ice cream cake many times before.
But making a chocolate-cookie topping for it — let alone one that went viral — was new.
“My husband, he loves an ice cream cake,” Katee, who asked to go by her first name to protect her identity, tells TODAY.com. “But I had this idea to top it with this Oreo fudge frosting, and I was like, ‘Oh, I’ll pipe it on there to make it easier to spread.’”
Katee says she hardly ever posts on social media but was feeling inspired by other home cooks sharing their funny kitchen mishaps recently. She appreciates the other folks who commented with their own poop-like plates in solidarity.
Her cake’s scatological sprinkles, she notes, were made of chocolate frosting and crushed Oreos, which eventually became spreadable and tasty.
“My husband really liked it, and he laughed at it looking like poop because that was mid-process,” she says. “He saw it then and was like, ‘Uh, are you gonna leave it like that?’ I was like, ‘No, no, this is just the process.’”
She says he gave the cake another look and said, “I love you, honey.”
