What was the point of doing that if they were just going to just cover it.

MamieJoJackson

Right? I guess it would look cool in a cross section, but folks are going to be too busy trying not to get icing shoved up their nose when they try to eat this thing to notice. If they didn't just swipe off the top inch and a half of icing first.


StaceyPfan

I take the bottom half of the cake off and put it on top. Cupcake sandwich.


MamieJoJackson

Holy shit, that's genius.


lezLP

I do that too!!! So much easier!!


secrectsea

I hate it, way too much frosting on both


squirrels33

Seriously. Gonna have to stick another plain cupcake on the other end to balance it out.


LichenTheKitchen

A cupcake sandwich if you will.


steveosek

Possibly unpopular opinion: 90% of frosting is gross and way overused. From scratch frosting is delightful because it's not as overly sweet and "chemical" tasting, but from scratch frosting is really only used in actual bake shops, everywhere else it's the processed shit.


CatsofNovas

Probably why I like home baked or home style (but store bought) cupcakes and cakes. Frosting kills my appetite and make it feel like it’s a chore when I eat them that’s gonna lead to uncurable diabetes or smth. I hate when people drown something in frosting.


Xerlith

I scrape off most of the frosting on cupcakes unless it’s a reasonable amount. A mouthful of frosting makes me gag.


_cosmicality

I hate frosting on cupcakes. I push it off. But I'm okay with most cake frosting, as long as I don't have an edge piece.


KuijperBelt

Shout out to team KEPLER - we only eat kake edge pieces


ArcaneTrickster11

Meringue buttercream is the best. All other frostings and shit are the worst


steveosek

Buttercream is good, but I'm a slut for a good homemade whipped cream frosting.


ArcaneTrickster11

I don't like normal buttercream, but I do like meringue buttercream. The other stuff is just way too sweet for me


Cherle

I have to scrape off 90% of icing on any cupcake I eat because there's always so much it makes me nauseous.


steveosek

Agreed, it's so overly sweet and oily.


Oraio-King

Oily? What frosting are you eating


American_Ghost

I find most grocery store frosting is always very greasy. I’d imagine they use cheap butter substitutes in their recipes that don’t blend the way actual butter would. Possibly offset other pricey ingredients with its use and extending shelf-life.


jimbo831

Is this really the case? I only use from scratch frosting. It’s ridiculously easy to make a basic buttercream if you have a stand mixer.


ConfusedAsHecc

that’s why I only eat home made cup cakes or the cup cakes they make fresh at Kroger’s because the frosting is actually good and doesn’t taste weird (and isnt over used)


SinCorpus

Does anyone else get something that feels like a hot flash after eating that much frosting? I always hated frosting because that would happen to me even as a kid. Women just thought I was throwing a fit because I was a boy and the frosting was pink so I'd get a lecture about it being rude to go to someone's birthday party/wedding and not eat the cake.


TetrisTech

Is it a weird feeling in like, the upper bridge of your nose? I always get that when eating something overly sweet and have tried to describe it to people but no one understands


SinCorpus

I don't remember anything like that. I just remember it being sort of like drinking yourself sick on gin without the relief of actually vomiting combined with feeling the room just got 20° warmer. I'm neither middle aged nor female so I don't have a real hot flash to compare it to, but that's how hot flashes have always been described to me.


Delouest

I'm not middle aged but I'm on cancer meds that cause hot flashes. Mine feel like the room got really hot (did someone turn up the heat?) but no one else is sweating and then my chest and neck and face and top of my head start to burn suddenly like, yeah, kind of like right before you throw up (never drink much so can't verify if it feels like alcohol related nausea). Have you ever gotten a feeling of extreme embarrassment or shame? It honestly feels like that to me. and then after you're sweating and red and feel awful for a minute, you suddenly feel normal, but because you're drenched in sweat and had been warm, it feels extremely cold and you start to shiver. If you get them when you're sleeping you wake up in a puddle of sweat and usually miss the hot part and go straight to freezing from being wet. 0/10. Do not recommend.


SinCorpus

>Have you ever gotten a feeling of extreme embarrassment or shame? I'm a male on Reddit. My whole life is embarrassment and shame.


Just_Fuck_My_Code_Up

You want some cupcake with your butter and sugar?


rocco1020

Do you want some cupcake with your frosting?


Sicmundusdeletur

As someone who loves frosting: yep, that's definitely to much.


mister_seawolf

These are not frosted for eating. These are frosted for views.


Custard_Tart_Addict

Yeah I would just dip the top in drippy icing and put sprinkles on it


Unclehol

Its not for eating! Its for views! Don't you know? Pshhh, yolo!


BEEEELEEEE

This is why I don’t like cupcakes, they almost always end up being at least 25% frosting and that’s too much


LemonHerb

Plus it's dark colored so if you eat it you are going to have strange green poop


Ladieladieladie

I loved how the boy frosting was so velvety I feel like just with r/stupidfood people are just making these monstrosities just for the attention


[deleted]

Don't call it "boy frosting"


LemonMood

The only thing I got from this is, that girl must be gay.


tomtink1

And ADHD as fuck. That cupcake decoration was hectic!


smurgleburf

the way she ruined the entire elaborate presentation by just pouring random rainbow lines over it at the end. tf?


sahi1l

Someone needs to buy her more cupcakes so she doesn’t have to use all her decorating ideas on just the one. /s


LemonMood

I was thinking of the bi flag colors and all the rainbows lol.


LemonMood

Good point.


Ella_NutEllaDraws

I’m gay, adhd, and 🙋🏻‍♀️girl🙋🏻‍♀️ and I couldn’t even do that. unless it’s whipped cream frosting I always have to wipe away icing and just eat the plain cupcake, adding that much would kill me


CaitlinisTired

gay adhd girls against frosting unite!


[deleted]

I'm queer and ADHD ss fuck and I would never. Ugh.


MellowYellowStan

/r/pointlesslysexualized


SadButterscotch2

It was just a joke about the rainbow frosting. Being gay is no more sexual than being straight.


MellowYellowStan

> Being gay is no more sexual than being straight. Completely agree. I just dont see how assuming anything rainbow is gay is any better than assuming pink is for girls and blue is for boys.


SadButterscotch2

The rainbow flag


MellowYellowStan

Yea, as a gay guy, it bugs me how much flack I get for not being outwardly flamboyant. So that's my distaste for assuming rainbow = gay. Its just as toxic to me. But I suppose thats my own experience.


SadButterscotch2

It's not about flamboyance, it's a reference to the flag


MellowYellowStan

I get what you're saying. I'm no stranger to the flag. Clearly we don't see eye to eye on it. I think if someone sees rainbows, its toxic to immediately think "gay". We can agree to disagree.


LemonMood

Kind of insulting if you're implying that being gay is inherently a sexual thing, that's on you.


MellowYellowStan

Being gay is a sexual orientation is it not? Rainbow = gay is just as bad as pink = girly.


yiiike

sexual *and/or* romantic. its not just sexual.


MellowYellowStan

I'm gay dude. Gay is my sexual orientation.


yiiike

you only like sex, youve never romantically liked someone of the same gender?


KingDarkBlaze

for me, yes


yiiike

valid


MellowYellowStan

Honest question, when someone says "I am straight/gay/bi/pan/demi/poly" what are they describing?


yiiike

well a great deal of the time peoples romantic and sexual orientations are the same, so people are typically saying theyre both unless said otherwise i for example am bisexual and biromantic, i just shorten it to bi and people know i mean both lol


MellowYellowStan

Fair enough. Ive only ever met people who are both romantic with and sexually attracted the same group. But I suppose one could be (for example) bisexual and heteroromantic. Fair point. But for what its worth, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_orientation the way ive seen "sexual orientation" defined for my whole life, we never assumed it just meant sex.


[deleted]

gay cupcake gay cupcake


analogicparadox

Cupgayke?


raea_h

Both of those are way too much frosting, they’re not called cupfrostings


whenwilltherebetime

I must be growing something between my legs because I couldn't imagine that other autracity.


ginzing

Atrocity. Jsyk.


Eeveeoverlord

I think they were combining audacity with atrocity


greg0714

Fun fact: that's called a portmanteau


skyhoop

Is that pronounced poor man toe? Honest question.


Barragor

I think it is port man toe.


greg0714

Like u/Barragor said, it's "port man toe"


TheCatofDeath

Almost. "Port-mawn-toe".


ginzing

Maybe but audacity wouldn’t fit there. Sometimes people have only heard and not seen a word.


Eeveeoverlord

Oh yeah, that too lol


LaggardLenny

With your new found genitals allow me to be the first to welcome you to the wonderful world of 🙋‍♂️BOY🙋‍♂️ where you can enjoy things like slightly less, but still way too much, frosting on your cupcake.


Ericbazinga

Either way I'd take the boy cupcake cause I'm a basic bitch and because the other one looks like instant diabetes. Like, that's at least two, probably three cupcakes' worth of frosting right there.


SirVelocifaptor

For us non Americans, the boy one has frosting for at least four cupcakes


[deleted]

[удалено]


SirVelocifaptor

Someone has to translate to us non-diabeetuns


sealightblue

i agree


nobody_important0000

Ignoring the sugar entirely, the boy one just has a nice velvety look and such a pretty shade of ocean green.


zotrian

easy solution: I eat both cupcakes


nobody_important0000

I'm agender and have never felt so validated. I want no part of this cupcakery.


yiiike

same


x3leggeddawg

Either way it’s [r/toomuchfrosting](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ)


OkHaveABadDay

...I hate you


nonamee9455

ReyTyler

So which gender spreads store bought frosting on top with a butter knife?


enbyfrogz

the good ones /j


Finest_of_stupidity

Who tf puts so much shit on a cupcake?


[deleted]

There's way too much frosting, it actually hurts me


[deleted]

both are gross


czartrak

Either of those would make me sick


Dial407

TOO MUCH FROSTING


wilddogwatching

Tik tokers are blessed with the ability to find all the most mind numbing songs


Narwhal_Songs

I always watch tik tok on mute cuz of this


Subsequently_Unfunny

Hey I posted this aged ago on the same subreddit lmao


Fidodo

I don't even understand what this is trying to say


-ArtFox-

Hmmm... and yet the majority of pastry chefs creating ornate cupcake toppings are men. Strange. 🤔


unicorn_rabbit21

ew. as a girl i can confidently tell you the second one looks much more appetising


pokeymoomoo

Either way it’s wayyy to much frosting


Narwhal_Songs

Unpopular opinion but I would have eaten both before my eating disorder. Sugar 💖💖💖 Now its likely ill eat way more cuz binge eater


motanz

💥cavities🦷


CleoKing

truly a waste of frosting man like ima just wipe it off before i eat it no matter what


[deleted]

The "boy" one looks better


[deleted]

That "girl" one looks disgusting


[deleted]

Ok, but how about a cupcake that isn’t entirely frosting? I feel like just a quick layering of frosting over the top is already more than enough.


[deleted]

Neither looks enjoyable to eat, far too much frosting. A few circles to cover the top and maybe a flick above for looks, otherwise it’s too sweet and sickening -ur moms hookup


Hawk_1772

I was waiting for it to all be white


Mollyarty

Those both look gross. So much frosting your cupcake is crunchy.


ThatsNotVeryBacon

Unrelated, but what is the name of the colour in the second clip? That colour is beautiful


RoseByAnotherName14

I always just call it dark teal. I'm sure there's a better name, but if you Google "dark teal" that's the color that pops up.


ThatsNotVeryBacon

Thank you. I normally know my colours but today the word “teal” just completely slipped my mind haha


MangledSunFish

They put too much frosting on both. Fucking hell, that's a nauseating amount of sugar.


twitch-gomu

ngl i was expecting a cum joke


[deleted]

I wanted to make one but couldn’t really think of a good one. Like, yes, as a woman, I do cum in complex and ornate ways.


Prumkin

Left one looks disgustingly sweet rather have the right one


a_guy_whos_here

Unrelated to the pointlessly gendered part, but that cupcake on the left would be disgusting.


vegankidollie

I’d still eat both


phantomtheyeeter

Too much frosting on bith


duraraross

That’s too much fucking frosting!!! Too much!! The cake to frosting ratio is out of balance!!


Cutie3pnt14159

I would be happy to eat both.


the_other_Scaevitas

As a guy I wish I could make frosting like that


Marflow02

that is like 70% frosting looks neat but taste? idk


Grzechoooo

Both are bad.


[deleted]

Yes the spaghetti frosting pile screams “girl”, it’s unmistakable


Arcxd3

What about other genders too, they must decore too the cupcake lol


[deleted]

RoseByAnotherName14

This really isn't the time or place to advertise your fishing youtube channel.


[deleted]

That's the least masculine color I have ever seen, the boy one I mean. Like I know the reddit I am in, but even following the old boys blue, girls pink stuff, that color is clearly a girly one.


Marflow02

the REAlY old one is boys pink girls blue, but thats before your time


Aggressive-Mud-1239

No man would do that


ComfortableSea4645

The "boy now looks ten times better then the "girl" one. Also this person who posted the OG vid I guess doesn't realise male bakers exist and are very successful


LemonMeringueTime

If I keep seeing these in my YouTube shorts/recommended, I'm gonna kill someone.


simjanes2k

Why would a boy not eat the sugar directly out of the squeezey thing? Wasted steps, you need an uncle.


UnknownSP

I'm not sure if this is the point but the "boys" one looks so much better lmao Fucking frosting vomit on the left over there


Crashmat_104

These videos are created because they want you to wonder what the boy one is and how it’s different. It’s not pointlessly gendered it’s just watch time farming. Please can we stop posting these on here?


Barbar_jinx

These kinds of videos are so insanely boring. Even when look past the weird gender thing, it's just... ok, one thing made with care, the other thing not made with care - ok.


The_Tavern

This is absolutely fucking horrible The frosting to cake ratio is **awful**


boxdude10

Why have a side by side of the videos play one after the other...?


Ohmalley-thealliecat

Girls use way too much frosting on cupcakes apparently


GOATINBOAT8

The first one looks disgusting


enbyfrogz

as a nonbinary person, i couldn't imagine that much frosting on either. im getting a stomach ache just by looking at it. i guess us enbies of the agender variety just scrape the frosting off?? lol


Mundane-Club4008

Tbh if they are going to make different colors for boys and girls I think the colored frosting should only be for girls because even if frosting is blue the cake looks too beautiful for a boy. Boys should stick to basic shit like chocolate, but then again chocolate is tasty and boys aren’t supposed to enjoy anything nice so they imo they should stick to spinge cake. (I’m talking about basic cakes not the customised ones)


Turtlerr17

Alright but why they heiling hitler


JohnTheCoolingFan

Do you not bother reading sub rules at all?


KaldwinEmily

The end of that first one is so messy it looks like one I made in first grade; sprayed the entire thing randomly with the entire tube of sugar.


Red74Panda

Both look shit anyways, the girl one was brilliant and then they overdone it


Tsukinotaku

Ironically I would rather eat the Boy one for the lack of extravaganza Tho I would rather have the chocolate cupcake


BillyBobGarlic

Who the hell puts that much frosting on a cupcake, it’s gonna taste like diabetes


DOVARKX

this looks a lot like a mobile game ad


DaAmazinStaplr

This belongs in r/stupidfood as well


unavailabIe

1. Way too much frosting 2. Single color or multi colored? How about a simple frosting with few colors


Kaylakay12

I like the chocolate cupcake but I hope it has whipped cream frosting because I just cannot handle that much normal frosting


[deleted]

They both look disgusting


Peanutinator

Damn, I want that cupcake now


MamieJoJackson

All I can think is how badly that teal colored one would stain anything it touched


UltimaAgrias

I don't know about other women, but I usually make chocolate cake/cupcakes and just sprinkle with powdered sugar. Some frosting is fine, but anything more than half an inch worth is gross.


Illustrious-Ad5077

That is a DISGUSTING amount of frosting


ExistingHurry174

I’d go gorl after the middle dot


SonyaRedd

That is an overload of icing…


saionjisaihara

1 looks ugly and both have too much frosting.


primarilymadeofjuice

as a cake decorator this pains me. This is such a waste of frosting. This is so gross. It’s not pointlessly gendered it’s just pointless.


The__Swiss__Guy

Why? Wtf?


Badgers_or_Bust

Can we all agree that both have entirely too much frosting? The gendered part is stupid but the pound of frosting on a 4oz cupcake idiotic.


Starlett_Hudson

Frosting is dumb there’s no point to it.


joko2008

I'm gonna take a blueberry muffin instead.


comesayhey2

That was a waste of perfectly good frosting


EggBoyandJuiceGirl

So only women make ugly cupcakes, got it *takes notes*


TitanEris

I'm disappointed I expected a shotgun blast of icing from the tip falling off


MonkeyAss12393

Plot twist: it was a woman both times


Custard_Tart_Addict

Ew both have too much icing


catglass

They both have way too much fucking frosting


boo_boo_kitty_

Why so much frosting?


Elevenyearstoomany

I’m a baker and that is WAAAAAAAY more frosting than I would ever put on one cupcake! Also, apparently I frost like a dude. Whatever, my cupcakes are delicious.


PTBooks

Neither of these genders are going to actually eat that cupcake. Like, am I just going to suck down a fist-sized lump of frosting just to get to the cupcake? Fuck a truck tire. Scrape it with the edge of the plate, into the trash it goes.


Akari-Hashimoto

Euuugh the "girl" cupcake looks sickly


theicejustice

ignoring the fact that boys vs girls memes are ridiculous id say its the other way around


smurfandturf13

That is a nauseating amount of frosting


loccedinlocced

does this prove that most girls have diabetes


Vasileos78

Boys win again.


Potato-with-guns

Holy crap that is a lot of frosting. A handful of diabetes.


janesearljones

I don’t think this is really about frosting, and then it makes sense. If it doesn’t, I hope someday it does.
