text: My baby sister and I were pregnant at the same time last year and my family was thrilled at the coincidence so imagine my crushing disappointment when my pregnancy turned life threatening and I was sent to Good Samaritan Hospital for bed rest at only eighteen weeks That meant I was going to miss my little sisters baby shower That made me incredibly sad What made me even sadder was her tearfully explaining to me that the baby shower her bossy mother in law was organizing for her was a hotass mess AND that her mother in law was refusing to provide a cake for the showernnAh ha I thought I can save the day from my hospital bed AND provide a kick ass cake for her baby shower Yay nnSo I called Karshs because they have some of the most YUMMYTASTIC cakes I have ever tasted Well my first call to Karshs did not go so well because the first employee I spoke to did not seem too interested in helping me AT ALL it was close to closing time apparently so I decided to call back the next day On my second call to Karshs I reached an employee who said he was a manager so I explained to him that I was stuck in the hospital but that I would like to order a baby shower cake for my little sisters baby shower in a couple of weeks and that I would pay for it over the phone with my credit card and that my husband would pick it up for me the day of the shower He said he would be happy to help me with this order I told him what size I needed and what flavors we would like for the cake and then he asked me about a decoration for the cake and I told him that her baby shower theme was baby turtles and baby owls and maybe could they do something with that theme in mind He said sure and I assumed that dealing with a professional bakery and all that they would do something nice within those parameters nnHoly Mary Mother of God was I dead wrong about THATnnnYou see the day of the shower arrived and my husband ran over to Karshs Bakery and picked up the cake and trust me it was not a cheap cake and then he brought that big pink bakery box over to my hospital room so that when my little sister popped in to see me before going to her shower I could surprise her with a beautiful cake to take to her partynnWell let me tell you what my husband opened the tape sealing the edges of that pink bakery box so I could get a sneak peek and my face just froze in an expression of utter horror The idiots who decorated her cake over at Karshs Bakery went and printed out an ugly black and green edible image of a giant sea turtle and plastered that monstrosity across the front of my sisters baby shower cake And then in teeny tiny pink letters at the bottom of the photograph wrote Welcome Baby EmmannI have never cried so hard in my LIFE I think my nurses were worried I was going to go into labor I was so upset and sobbing Seriously I was a wrecknnnI was crushed It was the ugliest MOST disastrous mess you have ever seen I seriously cried for hours and I could not even look at my little sister when she came to my room to see what the big surprise was that I had for her that day I hid my face in my pillow quietly sobbing and pretended to be sleeping when she came bynnIt was the most unprofessional thing you have EVER seen nnWe should have taken a picture of it for the cake wrecks blog but I was so distraught that I did not want to look at it anymorennMy family still put on a brave face and took that monstrosity to her baby shower while I hid in my hospital room and sobbed and while everyone who saw it all agreed it was hideous they also said it was quite delicious nnThankfully my sister was quite a good sport about it and thanked me profusely for the gesture I think she knew my intentions were goodnnSo there you have it take it for what it is worth Karshs makes delicious cakes as long as you do not mind your adorable baby shower cake looking like some Jacques Cousteau nature photograph out of a dusty old circa s textbook with some tiny unprofessional greeting piped out frosting at the bottom of the ridiculous photograph
