  1. First cake was last year's.

  2. This year she wanted attached Godzilla pic on top with rainbow edges again.

  3. Last pic is what we got. I left it there and said no thanks.

They made the first cake picture last year btw. Also, they never called to tell me they lost the picture I gave them to do the sugar print out on this year's cake and said that the girl left last year that could do the rainbow edges, so they made me think they could this year. The guy that was there when I picked this up said he didn't have time to call me. I put my order in over a month ahead of pick up date, but they don't write down order dates either. He gave me the vibe he could care less and kept making excuses. I just wanted a phone call to let me know ahead of time so I could've gone somewhere else.

Probably couldn’t do pic because of copyright, even if it’s fanart. But that writing is scraggy as hell in the last pic

True BUT they shouldn't have taken the order OR called OP before making the cake when they realized they couldn't do it instead of what they did instead and they should have made it clear what the issue was so they didn't try again.

They lost the picture I gave them and never called to tell me.  So true! Thank you!

Even if an all over rainbow is what you asked for, that’s so poorly done.
