I'm of a mind that such as this obscene $150,000. cake has no place in our culture as it really is. This is a fantasy of the poor, and a throw away toy of the rich. It should be dumped in a ditch. However then it would poison the ditch with excessive sugar.
Our betrayed working, and no longer able to work poor cling like abandoned children to freak show teddy bears. Such as this cake fancy cars dolled up whores, and McMansions. I now believe it is beyond healing. The poor refuse to let go of their dream world never to come true addictions, and the rich laugh in their faces.
If I were 20 I'd escape this place like those long ago escaping East Germany. I'd escape to a better freer more just land of which there are now a number, and start a happier far safer rational life.

Furthermore, that cake is in really bad taste, as are all displays of extreme wealth in the face of poverty. Who the hell is going to eat all that sugar? Probably a bunch of bugs.
The poor need to quit dreaming the false & delusional American Dream. They need to wake up, overthrow the rich and take their wealth. But they won’t.
You’re right: this country is a place to escape from.

P.S. - not just extreme wealth, but frivolous wealth: viz., silly bullshit like this cake. If it were a great sculpture at least the world would have a good piece art. But this is just rubbish, an insult to suffering humanity, like the execrable works of Damian Hirst and other super-cerebrated schlockmeisters.

As I say these fools are setting up a terror. This is the only response to such a culture. It will devour them, and the desperate that enact it.
After a time some deranged general or lowlife politico will restore "Order". Then we're off to the races.
The cake reminds me of Milan Cathedral, the Duomo di Milano. But executed by someone who should be executed.
Out of curiosity I did an image search for wedding cakes. I like the idea of wedding cup-cakes. It is a nice idea. An ordinary confection, but with a bit of panache. The only big difference from an ordinary cupcake would be how many you need for your party.
The other advantage to a cup cake is that each cake is a humble but complete work of art. So any leftovers would not look like a city that had been sacked.
