Aug 1 2007Giant Optimus Prime birthday cake

This woman wanted to do something special for her husband's 30th birthday so she ordered a gigantic Optimus Prime birthday cake.
The thing is the size of a toddler (and I'm sure has more calories ^_^). It has brownie dirt complete with fondant grass and the body is made of cake and rice crispy treats.
Kind of puts this Optimus Prime cake to shame, doesn't it? That one was basically a truck and this one is, well, Optimus Prime. And huge. Just like me, ladies. *wink*

That is the happiest guy every.
Look at that smile! For all those ladies who wuss out and give a nice sloppy BJ for their husbands birthday, look and learn.
What men really want is Transformers. And cake.
Then later... a BJ.

Ok this is getting more and more obssessive, when will the cakey madness end?
(not complaining!.. mmmm)

Maybe I'm just old, but are the Transformers kind of stupid? I don't understand why people have orgasms over them.
9. black Sunshine - August 1, 2007 2:36 PM
KC, go back to the 70s with the rest of the Sunshine Band. Transformers are 4 evah!!!
10. TQ - August 1, 2007 2:37 PM
@ KC
It's pop culture sensationalized and reborn - if you don't like them as much as everyone else who does, what's the big deal?
11. ET - August 1, 2007 3:13 PM
Perhaps what KC fails to realize is that transformers are GIANT ROBOTS who turn into cars and trucks, and then back into GIANT ROBOTS.
Durr.

Wow, I can't wait for the 7th and 8th Geekologie posts about Optimus Prime birthday cakes. This afternoon can't possibly come quickly enough.
13. Lily - August 1, 2007 3:20 PM
I am not much for Transformers, it's just the giant robots that get me every time.More girls should dig the robots I say!
14. RandomNigel - August 1, 2007 3:46 PM
It's like a very large and robotic episode of Ace of Cakes.
Lucky dude.
15. Joe Mamma - August 1, 2007 4:23 PM
Did they just say that the cake has more calories than a toddler?
16. Pastor Al - August 1, 2007 4:33 PM
11. YES!!! EXACTLY... but you forgot airplanes...
17. Dang Nabit - August 1, 2007 5:26 PM
15. Ya, don't think they thought that comment through... pretty funny, though.
18. Koen - August 1, 2007 5:37 PM
A woman who orders an Optimus Prime birthday cake for her husband... This is officially the luckiest guy in the world!
19. snses_fangirl - August 1, 2007 6:45 PM
hey Lily, robots in disguise!!!! and I'm a girl :-D
And hell yeah, KC you're fuckin' old .. .what's not to like about the transformers??? Ooooooh, Orson Welles as the big bad decepticon bot, .er ... megatron? galvatron? yay!! And Optimus Prime has the sexiest voice on the planetttt :DD
20. papa bear - August 1, 2007 6:56 PM
I'm disappointed they didn't put a pic of the icing that says "I'm sorry you'll never see a vagina" on this cake because there is no girl who's gonna do a guy who has Transformers cakes made for him.
I learned that the hard way. Damn you Thundercats! DAMN YOUUUU!!!!!

Gosh, lots of posts about cakes. Maybe you guys need to eat something.
22. snses_fangirl - August 1, 2007 7:40 PM
I prefer cake-posts to those lame-ass lamp-posts!! why so many lamps?? lamps are boring. fuckin' bulbs. a lamp has to shine, that's all. duh

"I'm disappointed they didn't put a pic of the icing that says "I'm sorry you'll never see a vagina" on this cake because there is no girl who's gonna do a guy who has Transformers cakes made for him."
Read the post, asshole, he's fucking married.
As in, MARRIED.

Yeah.. Gotta agree with #23 here, Learn to read newfag.
25. Vril-Ya - August 1, 2007 9:36 PM
@19
Orson Welles did the voice for Unicron. I swear to god I would've married that man back in the day.
26. guate6 - August 1, 2007 9:42 PM
It's cake...It's a Transformer...WTF!?!? It's the most badass and best piece of food in the world...I'd reorder these to simply look at it, gawk, stare in awe, and show it off. Oh and those who can't read...learn.

@#23 & #24
David Gest was also "married" to Liza Minelli and I'm sure that means he was having sex with her all the time too right? That's just one of MANY how shall we say, 'questionable' unions (Michael Jackson's marriages also come to mind). Wow. You guys are whip smart and worldly. You're right, Nathan. Marriage as in David Gest / Michael Jackson MARRIAGE, now do YOU get it, dummy?
I'm making the assumption that someone who is into Transformer cakes at 30 years of age has a sham marriage, you two believe otherwise. Interpretation.
Newfag? I've been commenting on here under various names since around the ipod bikini post. granted not YEARS but it's plenty long.

thats awesome. i wish i had an optimus prime cake, and his wife.
29. Lauren.w - August 2, 2007 1:41 PM
frankly i think you're all just picking on KC because he/she's not a sheep like the rest of you.
STOP BEING MEAN!
you can argue but there's no need for childish name calling guys!
not EVERYONE has to LOVE transformers...jeeez
30. Lauren.w - August 2, 2007 1:46 PM
and also to this new 'marriage' debate, people can love people who love transformers! it doesnt mean his marriage is a sham = /
i feed my partner snacks and drinks when he's playing on the PS2 or anything else, because i want to.
People do nice things for the people they love. Hence the cake.
31. Stolencheese - August 2, 2007 3:13 PM
Also? If his marriage was a sham why would she take the time and effort to cook him a giant Transformers cake?
idiot.
32. papa bear - August 2, 2007 4:28 PM
to keep up appearances? Why would Lisa Marie Presley make out with Michael Jackson on national TV? Sounds like going a little extra farther than baking a cake.
Hmmmm.....
@#30 I'm sure there are people who are married who like this crap, but if your sole defense that the guy is getting laid is that he's married it's a flawed defense as I have proven. That was my only point to the other homophobes who decided to chime in.
33. proteon - August 2, 2007 6:55 PM
"Dude Im gonna take a picture of the cake"
"WAAAAIIIITTTT!!!!! Lemme get behind him!!"
34. blondie - August 2, 2007 7:44 PM
The wife didn't bake the cake. She ordered it.
Probably from some overworked immigrant baker who spent three days solid on it and then didn't even get to lick the icing bowl.

36. joel - August 3, 2007 9:45 PM
Let me get this straight - you put a big fat diss on the other Prime cake, which was made by a man and his wife, themselves (true fans)? ... and THIS cake, made to order by some lady for her husband, gets you a raging hard-on? Yo, I don't know - you gotta give credit to "Truck Prime". At least he had the gumption to make it himself.
This "Transformed Prime" is pretty dope but I'd like to see Mr. Smiles and his wife make one on their own before any sort of shit gets slanged at the other guy and his wife who made one themselves.
Just sayin.
37. Allen - August 4, 2007 10:49 AM
you are a few months late buddy. the other cake was all actual cake not rice krispy treats too. rice krispy treats and brownies are not cake
making cake from scratch gets way more props than some johnny come lately hiring a professional who probably got paid way too much so you could try to impress people online.
38. shaun - August 4, 2007 11:07 AM
you're huge alright, a huge bag of douche
I'd say there's a greater chance of him having sex with it than eating it
39. CAPTAIN SALTINE - August 4, 2007 3:49 PM
HEY GUYS IM COOL CUZ I BOUGHT A CAKE. I COULDNT DO IT MYSELF, SO I GOT SOMEONE ELSE TO DO IT. THEN, I MADE FUN OF ANOTHER CAKE THAT WAS ACTUALLY MADE BY THE PERSON, AND WAS ORIGINAL. THEN, I TRIED TO COVER UP MY OVERALL LOSERNESS BY SAYING I HAD A HUGE PENIS. IN REALITY, I DONT HAVE A HUGE PENIS, I LOVE A HUGE PENIS. HOOORAY ME
40. sarah - August 9, 2007 5:27 PM
Who ever made that cake should be arrested! Have they not heard of copyright laws?
41. t3h k1ng - August 11, 2007 4:48 PM
@22 hey lamps arent so bad at least they aint watches
42. xhayleyxpantherx - August 21, 2007 10:29 AM
This is the best thing i have ever seen in my life. its a freakin giant ROBOT CAKE!!! Optimus Prime is the shizzle. But, i wouldn't want to eat it.....or be the one to cut the cake. its like killing optimus prime... D:
43. JWM - August 21, 2007 11:46 PM
Had he made it for himself, then he would deserve the death penalty.
That his wife made this for him just makes her cool. My wife had a Darth Vader cake made for our rehearsal dinner, and she's pretty cool, too.
44. dave - August 31, 2007 2:28 AM
If you take a good look at the china hutch in the background you can see wifey's reflection. She is standing there buck ass naked, with optimus frosting smeared on her large cakemaker breasts,
or maybe not, would have been cool though. What are the three b's that go away when a girl says I do.
Boinkin, blow jobs and breakfast
