Out of ideas for what to get your friends and family on their birthdays or any other special occasions? If you’re looking to surprise your loved ones with something fun and cheeky on their special day, these cakes might be just what you’re looking for!
Recently, an Ipoh bakery known as The Slice Ipoh Homebaker, caught the attention of netizens online after they shared pictures of their creative cakes decorated with edible cockroaches and lizards.
We were so intrigued by these creepy-crawly desserts that we had to ask what inspired the unique choice of cake decorating. “The request was made by our customer who wanted to surprise her sister with the lizard so we came up with this design for her,” Ethan, one half of the home baker duo that started the business, told World of Buzz.
The customer put in the request because she knew her sister had a lizard phobia. Weeks later, her sister received her shot at redemption and ordered her a cake covered in cockroaches as a returning gift.
Ethan told WOB that he and his co-partner, Irene were a little hesitant at first, “Initially, we were really scared that it was going to turn into a meme or something negative but turns out a lot of people DM-ed us saying they loved our work!”
But this baker duo is no one-trick pony, a scroll through their Facebook page reveals a variety of interesting cake models like a Gucci handbag, a Range Rover, and a human heart!
❤ in a literal way?

When asked about an order that surprised them the most, Ethan told WOB that they were once asked to make an office building cake that employees wanted to give their boss.
We’re equally fascinated and creeped out by how realistic these decorations look. If you’re interested in The Slice Ipoh Homebaker’s services, you can always place an order or check out more of what’s available on their Facebook page.
