AN outraged mum-of-the-bride has shared shocking photos of her daughter’s lopsided wedding cake being held up by kebab sticks and looking nothing like the order.

Lorraine Gaynor was horrified when the cake arrived for the wedding of daughter Gemma Murdock, who got married on September 25.

Gemma had forked out £160 to a cake maker from Irvine, Ayrshire, and asked for a three-tier creation after seeing their beautiful designs on Facebook.

She also sent a photo of how she wanted the cake to look – but the finished result was a complete disappointment when it was dropped off.

The sad-looking dessert had a purple top layer, cream middle and pink base layer, and looks messily-decorated and like it had slightly melted.

To make matters worse, instead of edible glitter being sprinkled on the cake, the baker had used arts and crafts glitter instead.

Taking to Facebook, Lorraine said: “This was supposed to be my daughter's wedding cake. Craft glitter, kebab sticks and cost a lot of money (sic).”

She said she had contacted trading standards showing what she had originally ordered – and the shocking post has since gone viral with over 5,000 shares.

Thankfully the wedding venue came to the rescue, with the hotel’s chef buying a replacement from Asda and adding icing and decorating using Gemma’s flowers.

Some people claimed the cake maker had stolen photos from Pinterest for her business account, which has since been removed.

One person wrote: “Oh my god! This is awful! How can someone actually do this to someone on their wedding day! Absolutely disgusting.”

Another added: “No support structure which is why it's leaning like Pisa. I don't even know where to start regarding the icing. I bake a fair bit and even I can hammer out a decent cake.”

Lorraine’s best friend Suzanne Pirie added to the comments that the baker admitted she made an “error in judgement at her inability to make a wedding cake”.
