Mimes can be very creepy, as demonstrated by a spooky Mr. Mime cake one Pokemon fan recently baked for Halloween. Mr. Mime was originally introduced in Pokemon Red and Blue, and the clown-like creature has been the subject of many haunting memes ever since. While Mr. Mime is usually a cheerful and funny Psychic/Fairy Pokemon in Pokemon canon, the internet has naturally transformed it into all manner of nightmare-inducing monsters, especially after the live-action Detective Pikachu movie presented a more realistic-looking version of the creature back in 2019.

A Reddit and Instagram user by the handle of Prof. Rosemary recently posted images of their homemade Mr. Mime cake in honor of the Halloween season. This creepy confection is a red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting, covered in painted modeling chocolate pieces crafted to look like an evil version of Mr. Mime. The mime’s ears are recreated using combed-out yarn attached to aluminum wire. A video posted to Prof. Rosemary’s Instagram gives a more detailed look into how the artist carved their layered cake into Mr. Mime’s twisted, wraith-like head.

This Fan-Made Mr. Mime Cake is Both Creepy and Delicious

This isn't the first time that Prof. Rosemary baked a creepy Pokemon confection for Halloween, as they previously shared a similar dessert modeled after the spooky Ghost Pokemon Gengar back in 2023. They have also cooked up some non-Halloween Pokemon treats as well, including cute Fidough-inspired pastries, Bellossom bento boxes, and even a birthday cake shaped like Tinkaton’s massive hammer.

Many other Pokemon fans are getting into the Halloween spirit by sharing cute, 3D-printed figures of Togepi disguised as a Halloween pumpkin and creating chilling variants of Pokemon like Gastly and Snorlax. Mr. Mime is a natural fit for these kinds of redesigns given how creepy the creature looks already, and this probably won’t be the last time the clown-like Pokemon is presented in a more sinister light.
