Unfortunately, these guys tend to get passed over come pageant time.
First there's Ginger, the deranged, dandruff-riddled cookie:

Sure she's a bit flaky, but be careful; Ginger snaps.
Then there's Harry, the five o'clock shadow elf:

As you can see, Harry likes to make a pig of himself.
Poopsie & Flopsie always know how to bring the holiday cheer:
Yep. Once they leave, everyone is MUCH more cheerful.
Humpty here likes to talk with his hands:

I would translate, but there are children present.
Then there's Tiny:

I tried to warn Tiny about cutting in front of that
shaman, but would he listen?
Noooo.[singing] But do you recaaall...
The most famous misfit of all?
Yes, it's...
Poo-Dolph, the Bulldozed, Slain Deer!
Jessica S., Kim C., Erin F., Mike Y., & Anony M., I totally need Poo-Dolph on a t-shirt.

What is Flopsie even supposed to BE? I assume Poopsie is a "reindeer."
Stunning. Absolutely stunning. PooDolph is no doubt my favorite!
"An open letter to these cake 'decorators':
Globs of icing do not obscure the lack of definition in the design, the fact that it's a pile of cupcakes, or that you have little to no artistic talent. Is it any wonder the continent is experiencing a serious rise in diabetes?
Signed,
So Very Sad (and not diabetic)"
The PooDolph makes me cry like a baby ;_;
Ask and ye shall receive.

Poo-Dolph... hee hee hee
I love you guys.
I'd be rushing Poopsie and Poo-Dolph to the nearest vet, because it looks like they have (wait for it....) blood in their stool. Sorry, that was the best laugh I've had all week!
Karmell
Seriously, poo-dolph looks like one of the demons from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (tv show, not movie of course).
Brown swirls will always look like poo - ALWAYS! Poo is not festive, even if it's covered in sprinkles and surrounded by red and green frosting. 'nuff said?
WV: soletick - I would rather have a Lyme-Disease-bearing soletick than eat one of these poo-cakes.
Oh, I do love the teeeeny little antlers on Poo-dolph.
Poodolph the bullnosed slain deer...
Had a very slimy nose...
And if you ever smelled it...
You would even say "oh noes"...
omg. omg. omg. omg.
I could excuse a five-year-old for making these, but for crying out loud, adults? Employed in a bakery?
WHOO HOOO Xmas frogs and drunken trolls!
....what? WTF?
Oh, Jen! You sleigh me! You saved the best for laughst [last]!
I have never seen a reindeer look more repulsive. Perhaps he thinks he's a dog and rolled in it?
You make my day - every day! Hugs & thanks!
Anyone else see #2 and immediately think of Sloth? "Hey you guuuyyyyss!!"
These are hilarious! I love your witty comments! Thanks for the laughter... it's a great way to start the day.
Is the elf chewing bubblegum? And what the heck are those green things on the 3rd one - praying mantises (manti?)? I also thought they were charging 19.99 for those cupcakes...
The Poopsie and flopsie!!!! It's Christmas Poo!!!!!!!! Hiiiiii-Deeeeeee-Hooooo!!!!!!!!!!!
Heidi :)
Poo-Dolph.... dear Lord, I needed that laugh this morning!
Superb commentary today, Jen and John.
Ginger looks like a product of the "throw everything in the kitchen on the cake" school of decorating-- a tendency I've been guilty of a time or two myself.
"Ginger snaps" LOL!
I'm trying to figure out what in the world the white cupcakes on Poo-dolph are even supposed to be. Cheeks? Snaggle teeth? Mumps? Giant oozing pimples? Ewww...
Oh, wow. A Jungle Cruise speil reference *and* a Beetlejuice reference? All in one post? I'm impressed! (with the wit, anyway...the cakes, well, um...I guess that's why they're here.)
Awwww, be nice to poor Ginger. Her psoriasis is a'flairing.
I also thought immediately of Mr Hanky the Christmas Poo!!
Duh. Flopsie is the Christmas Praying Mantis.
Ginger snaps...ha
I got the Jungle Cruise reference :)
Poo-Dolph is a real treat! You've outdone yourself with this one.
"Ginger snaps" and "Poo-Dolph" had me in stitches. XD
Very funny, as usual.
I just want to say that I've bought your book, and it's totally hysterical. I want to get more copies and give them to friends. I'm hoping to create more Cake Wrecks fans.
Evy
OMG...PooDolph is both so so funny and so so scary all at the same time.
PoohDolph made me throw up a little.
Oh! is it a reindeer on the cupcake? it's not a poopbat? Are you sure? because it really looks like the north american poopbat according to my audubon field guide. and I'm sure the green one is (flipping field guide pages) the southeastern naked turtle mantis - a distant cousin to the turtledove.
Regarding Ginger, especially-- has Sandra Lee been trying to decorate cakes again? Bwahahahaha!!
p.s. (If so, that probably IS bubble gum in the elf's mouth!)

BOOYAH!!! Great puns!
Amazing. That last one...you slay me!
"careful, Ginger snaps" LOL
Dandruff riddled cookie...why is she wrapped like a poo present? Is this an insult cake? and what were they thinking by making eyes by piling pastel sprinkles on poo brown icing?
I didn't know baby carrots grew in a curve (her mouth). And mint green hands and feet--isn't that an Easter color? take a cue from the mismatched button you used, wreckerator!
wv: bulog--this is the funniest bulog on the net!
Hanky the Christmas Poo!
Poo-dolph....Just wow. Yet more proof of the evils of CCCs. And sorry but wth are those white cupcakes on the side supposed to be?
Harry is one happy elf-pig!
Why are scared, naked frogs a Christmas icon? on blue icing, no less. looks like he's sitting in a pond. slap a hat on him and it's an xmas frog?
Next to poo blobs with pretzel "antlers" (salty pretzel with icing. YUM. my local supermarket is making reindeer cupcakes with pretzel antlers but they're way cuter than these poo specimens.)
Porky the Elf...and PooDolph...what are these people thinking? And, why are they "professional" cake decorators? Why not work in the deli or produce?
are those amphibian cupcakes supposed to be the Grinch? nice try, wreckerator. the Grinch is supposed to be SCARY, not SCARED.
Nice recycling of the Easter egg cake pan on the snowman with the runaway mitten and the toupee.
oh, Poo Dolph, what tiny antlers you have! (are you holding your breath with those puffy cheeks?)
It took a little imagination, but I think Flopsie is supposed to be the Grinch...maybe??
Poo-dolph is the most horrifying cake wreck I have even seen!
Blogless Mary Lou
When did frogs become part of the Christmas cast of characters? That is what the green blob next to the brown blob is supposed to be right?
Ginger snaps!! That is too funny!! hehehe
"Poo-Dolph, the Bulldozed, Slain Deer!" When I scrolled down and read that, I absolutely and automatically sang it in my head. Then I sang it out loud just to hear it. It was magical.
The green peppermint on Ginger makes me uncomfortable....
I find the fact that the first snowman cake is a yellow cake kind of funny too--I was always warned not to eat yellow snow!!
Is Flopsie some kind of love child of Grinch with severe arthritis?
Here's a tip:
Don't eat yellow snow (-man cake)!
what the hail is Flopsie? Perhaps a green slime goblin come to ruin christmas?
