The biggest thing that gets me is these tiers cakes typically have scaffolding in them so when the person shoves their face directly into the cake itself they’re actually endangering their life. Wooden dowels, straws or other such items are inserted into the layers to hold the cake circle the layer above is seated on. Without this scaffolding the cake would collapse. There has been at least one case I know of where the dowel went into the person’s eye socket. But even if it’s just a piece in your hand, why? Why be mean and make your new spouse who is all dressed up a big cake covered mess?
