Bride breaks down in tears and has her caterer ARRESTED after cutting into the cake and discovering half of it is made of POLYSTYRENE

• Shine Tamayo, 26, and Jhon Chen, 40, paid £2,100 to caterer for a wedding feast
• The food failed to arrive at their reception in Pasig City, the Philippines,
• Discovered the bottom of her two-tier cake was polystyrene covered in icing

A heartbroken Filipino bride had her caterer arrested after cutting into her wedding cake - only to find it half of it was made from polystyrene foam.

Shine Tamayo, 26, and her partner Jhon Chen, 40, had paid 140,000 pisos (£2,100) to their wedding planner to supply food and decorations at their reception in Pasig City, the Philippines.

However, upon arrival after the church ceremony, they discovered that not only was there no food for their guests - their two-tiered dessert was a fraud.


Heartbroken bride breaks down after discovering cake is fake

Fake: The bride and groom discovered that the cake was a fraud when she cut into it during their reception in Pasig City, the Philippines, last month
The newlyweds were forced to visit a restaurant across the road to purchase trays of noodles, rice and other food which they brought to their reception, held at a local hotel.

The exhausted bride was devastated to be serving greasy street food and blackcurrant squash to her guests, but once she went to cut the cake it went from bad to worse

When Ms Tamayo sliced through the icing, she discover it had been stuffed with polystyrene.

The humiliated bride covered her face and broke down in floods of tears in front of her family and friends.

She was so distraught that guests took her - and their caterer - to the local police station.

Levels: While the top tier of the couple's cake was indeed real, the bottom was found to be fake

Arrested: Caterer Krissa Cananea, pictured here at the police station, was arrested by police
Officers inspected to two-tier wedding cake - confirming that the base was made entirely from foam wrapped in red icing - and questioned wedding planner Krissa Cananea.

Ms Tamayo said today: 'The woman we paid to do the food has ruined my wedding. She's a liar. She always asked me for money and I always gave her what she needs because I wanted my wedding to be perfect.

'I will not accept sorry from her, an apology is not good enough, she needs to go to jail because she ruined my wedding.

'I have never been so humiliated in all my life. This was supposed to be one of my most treasured memories for my entire life. Instead it is the worst.'

The couple had paid 140,000 pisos (£2,100) to their wedding planner to supply food and decorations at their reception in Pasig City, the Philippines, but the food did not turn up

No bubbles: The couple say they were forced to serve blackcurrant squash to their guests

Emergency: When the food failed to turn up, they went across the road to a restaurant
Police examined the wedding cake, pictures of the food, as well as the payments the couple had made to the wedding coordinator Cananea, who had arranged the catering.

Officers from the Pasig City Police Station confirmed that Cananea had been arrested on suspicion of Estafa - a form of fraud - and released.

A spokesman said: 'The investigation into the wedding fraud is ongoing. The bride was very distressed by her cake and the food.

'We have confirmed that a large amount of money was paid for the service which was not delivered adequately.

'The provider, Miss Krissa Cananea, has been interviewed and we intend to take the case to a trial.'

now that's a dumb crime.

that might not be a crime, he probably took a display cake by mistake.
Cake shops often make cake just for show to put up in their bakery shop. Good chance they made a display around the same they made her cake and he took the wrong one by accident.
I mean you have to know people are going to try to eat the fukking cake so why would he sit around at the wedding waiting for the axe to drop? I bet he was as surprised as they were.

 

[Doobie Doo]

So nobody is gonna mention the 14 year age gap between the two>? The cake ain't the only thing fake in that wedding.

Have Hustle Man plan your wedding.

My explanation still stands. You don't bake all the layers together at once. you do them separately than stack them after they have cooled down.
There may have been a layer that was meant for the display when they were finishing the cake. It's not like soup where you can sample it after cooking. You can't take a slice out of it to check. Someone in the kitchen probably made a mistake.look below, if one of your assistants made the bottom layer and you did the top, you might not realize its a fake one meant for display until its time to eat it. Could gotten the wrong bottom layer through an honest mistake is all i'm saying.

This as absolutely grounds for a civil case. Fukk your entire business up for 1 cake bakerbrehs

 

[Soundbwoy]

I worked a few weddings and the fukkery that I've seen from vendors is straight shameless
I remember a vendor dropping the cake just before to wedding started and she couldn't wait to get out of there, come to find out the cake was messed up, it was a 3 story cake and it was holding together with spaghetti

That might have been possible except the caterer didn't deliver ANY food to the reception and a half fake cake.

This wasn't some mistake, that's a straight scam
