Watching reality TV shows like Cake Boss or Ace of Cakes makes it seem like baking cakes is a fun and creative activity that can be enjoyed by all. But the reality is much different and Chicago resident Teresa Such recently found this out the hard way. The woman bought an ugly lamb cake for Easter lunch and decided to give it a makeover before serving it. However, things didn't really work out as planned and the woman documented the whole process in a Facebook post titled "How to f- up Easter in 11 easy steps... "

The whole ordeal happened back in 2018 but Teresa still remembers it to this day.
In an interview with Bored Panda, the woman said that for her, Easter is a time to be with family as the don't see each other that often. Each member of the family had to bring one dish and Teresa chose the dessert.
Apparently Easter lamb cakes are in high demand around the holiday but Teresa still managed to get one even if it looked kind of creepy.
The woman quickly realized she's in over her head but there was no turning back.
"The goal from start to finish was to make this ugly store-bought cake look better. The first thing that went wrong was that I was drunk by the time I got to the icing part," joked Teresa. "I got home from the store and poured myself a very stiff drink, and thought let’s do this. I started scraping off the icing that was on it and the ears fell off."
The woman admitted that the end result wasn't very satisfying.
Teresa realized the cake was a monstrosity as she got done icing it and put the eyes on but decided to bring it anyway. "Right after I took the first picture of it, its head fell off. I went into full panic mode and decided that I wasn’t going to bring dessert," said the woman.
However, you can't show up to a dinner empty handed so Teresa marched on. Although it probably would have been for the best - it could have saved many people from having nightmares for years to come.
Even when it seemed like it couldn't get any worse, the woman was determined to finish what she had started.
"A few minutes, and drinks, later, I decided against it and to keep going. So I put some more toothpicks in it to put its head back on it. I tried re-icing it again and it just looked even worse than before," said Teresa.
"I then decided to grab a knife and smooth it out, thinking that would make the situation a lot better, and it didn’t," admitted the woman. "There was no turning back. I decided just to go with it and I brought it the next day to Easter lunch."
Unsurprisingly, no one dared to eat Teresa's monstrosity.
"It turned out that everyone loved it, thought it was hilarious and didn’t want to cut into it and ruin it (ironic, I know,)" joked Teresa.
