Animal Crossing: New Horizons fans express outrage on a themed cake based on the Nintendo Switch hit

It is true that sometimes what looks good does not necessarily taste good either. This might be the case with the above ACNH-themed cake. Although it looks gorgeous in every possible manner, fans think that the cake would taste horrible. This is because the layering for the house and other elements is done with fondant icing.

It is usually thick, fairly flavorless and gross, and has an unpleasant texture for eating. Furthermore, the coloring used for the food generally has additives which are unhealthy and sometimes, even allergy-inducing.

There is even a subreddit called r/fondanthate which focuses on the unhealthy use of fondant. As a Reddit user in the subreddit says to sum it up, “‘This is no longer cake. It’s a homage to cake. You just paid a trained chef, whose trade is making delicious food, hundreds of dollars to make what is essentially a styrofoam and plastic replica of a cake. It’s literally a centerpiece. It’ll sit there and look cute while the party goers are served sheet cake from Costco.”
