Valid Victorian

This graduation cake might make a little sense only if the recipient were receiving a PhD in 19th-century English History. But if he or she was first in the class, the spelling is valedictorian. That took me a second to see, long enough to make me laugh at the cake from the archives at Cake Wrecks. It’s part of a round up of 21 Graduation Cakes That Do Not Get A Passing Grade at Buzzfeed. Let’s hope the class of 2015 brings us more cakes to laugh at, as long as it’s someone else paying for them.

There is a french play by Edmond Rostand (who wrote Cyrano) called "Chantecler" about a Rooster who believes that his crowing causes the sun to rise. For the purpose of the play, actors are supposed to be dressed up as rooster, chickens and other farm animals, in a realistic fashion. The pic is merely a picture of one of the actors in one of the first rendering of the play in 1910. The 1910 poster of the play : http://www.larousse.fr/encyclopedie/data/images/1311216-Edmond_Rostand_Chantecler.jpg
