  1. Cut the cake into portions equal to the number of attendees. Maybe a couple more if you want to save a few slices. Everyone gets to enjoy cake at the party
  2. Grab a fork, and eat it alone. At a party. All the attendees just watch as you gorge yourself on far more cake than one person should consume. Take the rest home and freeze it so you can continue to be the only one to enjoy it

Capitalists see nothing wrong with option 2.

I prefer option 3: Everyone brings some cake to the party, and everyone gets to enjoy the variety of flavors, because we all pooled resources.

Cake potluck for a birthday is a dope idea!

[-] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 18 points 6 months ago

The sheer fucking amount of cake that would be leftover at the end would make me sick.

I mean, I'd eat it all, so therefore, I'd get sick.

But most people usually bring too much to a potluck, and with cake it would likely be even more. So much leftover cake.

I used to do potluck pie parties, because people are happy to go savory with pie. Chicken pot pie, tamale pie, beef and onion, etc. It’s all about tasty with a crust.

You just blew my mind...great idea!!! First though, it's time to get friends...

[-] somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Awesome. We had wedding pies instead of cake. Who doesn't want 10 kinds of pie to choose from?!

[-] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

I've been to a few low budget weddings that did this. It was awesome. No $10K dinner bill for the newly weds, just a shit ton of homemade desserts.

A panluck? God, I would be so in. And you could really get experimental with the cake if you knew it wasn't the only one there.

[-] XTornado@lemmy.ml 2 points 6 months ago

Maybe if we say which cake we will bring....otherwise you end up with multiple of the same type, or maybe the exact one if not home made.... Which sucks.

Or option 4: everyone brings some ingredients, or skills, and we all bake varying cakes which are then enjoyed by all, because it's a cooperating group that doesn't give one asshole all the cake that's baked.

[-] Eheran@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

How many hours is that supposed to take?

[-] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 21 points 6 months ago

It usually takes an hour to bake the cake, but since there are 10 of us it only takes 6 minutes.

[-] ironhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

As little as needed. No reason to force people to sit around acting like they're baking cake.

This should be a thing
