WEDDING CAKE FAIL

COULD this be the most distastrous wedding cake fail EVER? Most brides opt for a traditional tiered white wedding cake decorated with delicate pink roses and lace for their big day. But one bride-to-be wanted something more alternative - and she sure got what she asked for. Celia, a bride from Haltwhistle, Northumberland, snapped up this black iced tyre cake online after seeing a beautifully decorated image, but what she actually received was much less glamorous.
