Where can I find a cheap $30/$40 naked cake in BP? Just a plain simple cake with white frosting around.

I took a sponge and decorated it with frosting. I think that buying a cake for the purpose of destroying it is baal tashchis. I don't understand how it has become such an acceptable thing to do.

Thanks, I’m not very cake savvy so easier to buy, though thinking of trying to make my own.

Honestly it couldn't be simpler to buy a white cake mix and they probably sell premade frosting - if you can't find ready made in a can, then just a simple white frosting.

I can't conceive of spending $40 for a cake to be smashed when I can pour oil and an egg into a mix and have a cake for $3.00

I totally agree with Blessing 1. We do not have to take every ritual/custom from the non jews.... and I don't even think it makes such a cute picture either.

I handed my kid a chocolate chip cookie. Got adorable pictures at a fraction of the mess. (just enough mess to be cute)

I ate from it after. Don’t think it always goes to waste. My baby only licked the frosting wasn’t destroyed.

Hysterical. OP asks for help with a cake and everyone feels free to contribute their unsolicited judgements on her life choices. Either contribute helpful advice or restrain yourself from commenting. Let her live her life and you live yours.
Gosh I love imamother sometimes.

Anyone have a recipe for an easy cake then? No separate eggs etc… I only have a hand mixer so nothing fancy. Would use Duncan Hines but heard people found worms…

I think we're allowed to spread awareness. Baal tashchis isn't something to take lightly.
