Gift from ‘The Colbert Report’ to ‘The Daily Show’ on its Emmy win
By
I noted this in a comment to the previous post but, on reflection, I thought it would be better to break it out into its own post. According to some audience members from last night’s Daily Show taping, the pre-toss banter between Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert included a truly hilarious tidbit. It’s a smidge less family-friendly than what we usually post here, so I’m hiding it behind the fold. You really owe it to yourself to read it, though. I wonder how one commissions a cake like that … :)
One other thing Jon said to Stephen was that he didn’t know how Stephen had such energy (as Stephen was doing his dancing at the desk) because the jet lag had hit him harder yesterday than it did on Tuesday. To which Stephen replied that Jon blew all his energy on accepting all his “f*#king Emmys”! After the pre-toss and before the actual toss, Jon alluded to the audience that TCR had sent TDS a penis shaped cake with the inscription: “Go f*#k yourselves” (about their Emmy wins). Jon was trying to convince himself that he shouldn’t take it personally since it read “yourselves” and not just “yourself”. Well, I know I’m not doing in any justice, but it was very funny when he said it.

Great post! Too funny. [I have been, unfortunately, to a bachelorette party with one of those cakes--not pretty!] ;)
I encourage everyone to follow the link and read/trace the string of comments related to the toss [I think they start on the previous page]. Insightful and cute. It will make your heart smile! :)

I wonder if the TCR crew baked the cake themselves or if they ordered it custom-made from a local bakery. If they chose the second option, I can’t help breaking out into a huge grin just thinking about the baker shaking his/her head while making such a ridiculous cake.

There are actually entire bakeries that specialize in such things. I know there’s at least one here in Houston, so I doubt there is a shortage of erotic cake artisans in NYC. :D

There are bakeries out there that will make cakes like that. I’ve been to a couple of bachelorette parties that had penis-shaped cakes with dirty messages written on them. I find it absolutely hysterical that TCR had one made and sent to TDS! LOL!

Something that’s never come up on Ace Of Cakes, that’s for sure. But good ol’ NYC, you can get ANYTHING you want. ESPECIALLY phallic pastry.

Fantastic! I’d have loved to hear the jokes that gave rise to! *ahem*

You’ll pardon my wooden response as I merely golf-clap your pun.
/sorry.
I’ve written a lot of, shall we say, interesting inscriptions on cakes. But all of these cakes have been of traditional shapes – I would have died laughing if I had to carve one into a phallus!

I watched that show on TLC Cake Boss about the bakery in Hoboken & they did an episode about “dirty” cakes. I get the sense that the atmosphere in the TDS/TCR studios is like a frat house. So this seems totally appropriate & hillarious. I bet they bust each other’s chops all the time. All in fun, of course!

We have (had? not sure if it’s still there) one of those cake shops too in a mall. I’ve never been inside but I remember passing by it several times when I was still a frequent mall goer. There’s a huge sign there warning parents not to bring the kids in.
So funny! I like that the cast and crew of the two shows really interact, and not just during a Toss. :)

LOL I can’t help but wonder if it was just like an outline or a complete 3D affair. (There’s a pretty epic penis cake on LJ that I’d link to if not for the family friendly ordinance.)
Reading about the toss makes me want to go to a taping again.

Wonderful, love those 2! The Erotic Bakery is a 25 yr landmark in NYC, they probably ordered from there.

Does the old rule where you have to kiss the nearest person of the opposite sex still apply with this type of cake?
Where do you cut from first?
