Platinum $130,000 Crunk Cake
A cake fit for a queen has been baked and decorated by famous Japanese pastry chef, Nobue Ikara, to show tribute to beautiful women.
The cake, decorated with about $130,000 in platinum ornaments, necklaces, and pendants, was dedicated to Rinko Kikuchi and Chie Kumazawa, as well as all the famous women who have dazzled millions with their beauty, charm, and talent.
Of course there is the marketing message included that platinum signifies the beauty in women and promotion hopes to increase platinum sales in Japan.
No mention was made as to who got to eat the cake or whether the two ladies specifically mentioned got to keep the jewels.

Thank you, Capitalism. That’s what a lot of starving people has given in economic balance for this to happen.

Idiots. Putting alot of jewelry on a crap cake doesnt make it special. I could buy a $3.99 Entennmans cake and put some fancy bling and it and it would still be a crap cake.
Morons.

Yeah um.. I dont think they’d put a crappy 3.99 cake under 130k in platinum. Learn to READ and not just look at the picture.

“Of course their is the marketing message included that platinum signifies the beauty in women and promotion hopes to increase platinum sales in Japan.”
Shouldn’t the third word “their” be there?
I guess no one on the internet knows grammar.

i mean the “word” crunk. Now it is possible that I was typing while crunk, but it has nothing to do with jewelry.

What a shame that so many people are stupid enough to find value in trinkets and baubles. The only ones who should be fascinated by shiny bits of metal are crows and raccoons.

I agree, it’s not even a fancy cake. The lines are all sloppy. It’s a big poo-cake somebody threw jewelry on. If I was going to cover a baked good in thousands of dollars jewelry, I’d make it one damn fine cake and take more than 10min. tacking the bling on.
Sloppy and totally not newsworthy.
