How old is your son? 'Cause that’s pretty darn funny if he’s, like, 12, and offering to cook dinner. Cooking can be fun, kids! ---

[Cake Wrecks](http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2008/12/most-wonderful-time-of-year.html) has coined the term “turdaphants” to describe some sad decorator’s attempt at reindeer, and I can’t think of a more appropriate term. There are lots of poopy looking cakes in older posts too. It seems untalented decorators tend use lots and lots of piped on icing, and they often work in chocolate, so you can imagine. ---

Hee hee! Those made me giggle. They definitely look like little turds. I bet they taste awesome, though. I have a recipe that is actually called “poop muffins” - when you see what’s in them, you’ll have a hard time deciding whether the name comes from what they look like, or what they’re made of.

I thought of calling these turd cookies but poo cookies just seemed nicer. Now that I’ve had time to think about it, I think caca cookies has a better ring to it. ---
