A South African baked a cake that looks like an Albino Burmese Python to promote his business and showcase his unique skills on The Black Capitalist.

The cake was very detailed and looked realistic, yet many people had no intention of buying a cake like that, let alone eating it.

It seems many netizens have an extreme fear of snakes (ophidiophobia), so much so that they'll forego a delicious piece of cake.

Albino Burmese Pythons are indigenous to the region of Southeast Asia however, Mzansi Facebookers were not in the least bit interested in this wild cake and would have preferred designs of other human-friendly animals like dogs.

Here are some comments:

Sereko Moroe said:

"Ga ke rate dijo go lekana."

Mamosebetsi Skhosana wrote:

"I will never eat this one."

Mr_SouL Ten53 RSA commented:

"Even if I'm hungry to death, never."

Prince Labra added:

"I would never eat a venomous flavour."

Sewela Penny Thaanyane mentioned:

"That's a horror recipe."

Ka V asked:

"Why make it a snake cake you better be a dog or cat."

Thelma Sebeela said:

"Wow, I'll think about it. Ijoh!"
