Whether you’re a pop culture junkie who loves books, film, music, TV, or the visual arts, we’ve scoured the Internet to find the perfect cake to match your obsessive devotion. Some of them are awesomely bad, while others are edible works of art. Click through, and let us know in the comments which cake is your favorite.
