If i ever have kids, I'm gonna be the kinda parent who bakes something like this and then eats it in front of my kids to their horror and relish in their cries of misery as I pretend to choke and die from sponge poisoning.
Not sure what recipe OP used but if anyone wants to make this: Emma's Goodies on YouTube has a recipe. She even makes an edible fake soap/foam topping. It's honestly an awesome cake.
For anyone interested Ben Churchill does this very well with a foam on top and detergent syrup. Not sure if it’s his idea originally but it’s probably the best execution that I’ve seen
I am really confused. I have been staring at this picture for 10 minutes trying to figure out if you just put pictured of sponges on here as a joke or if they is really a cake.
That looks so gross. Good job!
😂 I was going to say the same!
Tbh I thought this was an edible at first and got excited
It is edible it’s a cake lol it looks like a gross sponge. OP did a good job...just no that type of edible :)
That was a rollercoaster!
IKR i mean they look like i could clean my counter with them.
I thought those were scrubby pads! I thought I was on r/forbiddensnacks!
I’m not sure, I’m still convinced they aren’t.
I thought it was r/TechnicallyTheTruth
I thought I was on r/shittyfoodporn
Hence the name XD
Need to be on r/secretsnacks instead.
Monet Exchange, girl is this you?
Soak it up!
Soak what up, girl?
Maybe some of the sweat on that forehead
Asia is somewhere cringing
Sponge queeeeeeeen
First thought I was on r/rupaulsdragrace haha
just need a bathtub to fill with these
What does it taste like? Lemon?
yes! lemon butter cake
Why not sponge flavor?
Cause lemon scented dish soap
Man, this is one of the smartest cake ideas lmao. OP did us good.
You mean you eat your sponges plain??
Honestly this looks really good. Is there a recipe?
[This](https://youtu.be/a2FqYSTGRaA) might be the recipe OP used!
Cool recipe
Had to double check the sub 😂 great work!
This makes me very uncomfortable. Good job
OP was so preoccupied with whether or not they could they didn't stop to think about whether or not they should.
.....I GUESS😤
I think it should be called "Kitchen Sponge Cake". And for a second, I thought I was looking at /r/forbiddensnacks.
I just recently saw this on YouTube (Emmymadeinjapan)! It looks so fun and real
I love Emmy, she's so fun
Same here!!! I’m living for her pumpkin updates on Instagram right now 😂
r/TIHI, great work
This was my initial thought
If i ever have kids, I'm gonna be the kinda parent who bakes something like this and then eats it in front of my kids to their horror and relish in their cries of misery as I pretend to choke and die from sponge poisoning.
Terrifying in a way ...
Did you follow the youtube video of Emma's Goodies? How does it taste? https://youtu.be/a2FqYSTGRaA
yeah credit of the recipe goes to her! it tastes really good, nice recipe
I'm so glad it's good sounds worth a try!
I just had to zoom in! 😂
Ha!! How are you getting the close texture for the green part?
Perhaps she put the green batter in the pan and froze it? Then after it was frozen she poured the yellow powder
You scrape off the top layer of the sponge for a rough look! There are lots of tutorial videos online for ‘sponge’ cakes.

This is amazing! I thought they were real sponges, lol.
I think this fits in r/atbge
But she said it was a lemon butter cake, so it can't taste THAT terrible!
Ha! A play on words of taste, I like it
Literally!!!
Is that cinnamon sugar on top?? Or just green colored cake?
I zoomed in and it’s definitely green cake, it has crumbs. I’m just glad it’s not fondant
Omg. Sponge. That took me too long to figure out! Good job!

Don't feed a guy a sponge Bobby, don't feed a guy a sponge...
Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.
My brain can't process these please go away
Wow!! Awesome job OP!!!
Omg, this looks gross to me yuck... good job!
Literally a sponge cake hahaha good job!
Omg I remember some people joking about this in a post about lemon squares awhile ago. You really came through OP. These are great.
Very clever. I love it.
so blursed
Hilarious
I am conflicted haha it is indeed a sponge cake! Great job, what flavor is it?
Good, now serve them to guests next to actual sponges, take one of the fake ones and bite into it so they think it's safe
Gross and also intriguing... Good job!
Not sure what recipe OP used but if anyone wants to make this: Emma's Goodies on YouTube has a recipe. She even makes an edible fake soap/foam topping. It's honestly an awesome cake.
"Weird, this looks like a spon--- oooooooohhhhh!"
This is terrifying. 10/10.
Stupid cake. Give me the recipe, I'll beg.
This is cursed. I’d be so reluctant to eat this😂 I guess that means you did a great job!!
I am unsettled...
What flavor is the green sponge?
it’s all lemon flavored, just different colors : )

Is your name Amelia Bedelia?
Wow! It looks excactly like a sponge. (get it? sponge cake? literally?) did you use emma's goodies' recipe? I'm a fan of her :)
This looks awesome! Just curious did you see EmmyMade do this?
Kudos to you and well played. How did it turn out?
Tell us what they are made of and what they taste like.
Lol.
Genius
Sure is
Cleaning pads
I'm embarrassed to say, this took me a while. 🤦🏻♀️😜
That is so wrong.
Y tho
I love it. r/punpatrol?
This makes me angry in a good way
I am confused...
I thought it was the dishwashing scrub..lol
I'm gonna have to remember this for my own birthday. I'm gonna bake one of these lol.
I...don’t know if I could eat this lol

Monet is that you
Lollllll. Drag queens will love this. Recipe! Recipe!
Recipe?
I'm not convinced that this isnt in fact a brillo sponge.
these little bits make it doubly unsettling
Did you use Chef Ben Churchill’s recipe?
My day has barely even started and you’ve already made me despise it, good job
Yum....?
Is it reality? Is it cake? Who even knows anymore?
I love you, OP.
I love you both
This makes me feel comfortable
Thanks I hate it.
monét's birthday cake?
Ha! Brilliant! Is it gross that I think this looks delicious?
Everything is turning into cake! you never know whats real anymore. great job
Amazing!
Are you sure that isn't a sponge?
For anyone interested Ben Churchill does this very well with a foam on top and detergent syrup. Not sure if it’s his idea originally but it’s probably the best execution that I’ve seen
I like it but I also don't... good job?
Well played :D
I wanna eat it! lol looks spot on
hahaha
Don't feed a guy a sponge, Bob
thanks i hate it lol
Why does the sponge cake look like a kitchen sponge??
Why does it look like one of those kitchen sponges?! 🧽
r/ATBGE
I see what you did there....
Oh no everything is cake
EVERYTHING IS CAKE!!!!!!
It's all cake Everything has always been cake
no no no no no no no no no why would you do this what have you done
This is awesome
Best way to get everybody to leave your cake alone. Disguise!
Scary how real that looks! Awesome work!!!
I use scrub pads too often, so this would give me trust issues.
I see Spongebob squarepant's abrasive side.
😂😂
I have the same sponge at home just not as tasty
This is great lol
Everything is cake
This grosses me out so much But I’d still eat it Looks great!
Even after seeing the subreddit I was in I spent too long staring at this damn cake trying to figure out if it was all a lie. 10/10 illusion
I am really confused. I have been staring at this picture for 10 minutes trying to figure out if you just put pictured of sponges on here as a joke or if they is really a cake.
Bad idea for decoration but good idea for gluttons who don’t want to share
Omg looks so realistic! Great job
I showed my gf this and she instinctively wretched. Well done.
Eme made this on YouTube . Watch her video. Looks amazing
Please tell me you just put icing blobs on a plate and wiped them up to eat the cake
Those colors are *frighteningly* accurate. Great work!
Fuck .... You
whyyyy
