"Baby" Showers
July 15, 2009 Some cakes make you wonder what species of baby is being welcomed into the world:
"Extra, extra! Read all about it! Swamp Thing procreates!Becomes spokesperson for cloth diapers!"
I think this is a monkey.[German accent] "Wouldst you like to touch my monkey? Touch him! LOVE HIM!!"
And finally, we have our mutant flippered pig-child of perpetual worry:
Or maybe that's pain; it probably hurts to be skewered through the hand with a rose stem.Kimberly L, Erin G., & Justin E., now is the time on Sprockets when we dance.

What’s up with the second one’s bowtie? Did they realize they monkey’d it up and wanted to add some class?
And I think the words are in L33T speak. “IT’5 A B04?”

Maybe "Tristan" is the name of a new species, and a baby Tristan is on the way!
honestly, after seeing these, i'd take a baby bump cake (sans boobs) any day!
The "Monkey" cake looks a little like MAD's Alfred E. Neuman.

Mutant flippered pig-child cake reminds me just a bit of the Montauk Monster...
And I think one of my brothers was born green.
Good thing ET is phoning home first before they get a load of him in that kinky diaper-fetish drag costume.
CCC ftw. Can I get an amen?
Did people pay for these?
Isn't there a form letter that can be sent to bakeries saying something to the effect of "DON'T DO THIS. The customer isn't always right."?
I'll take my cake unfrosted, please. (But I'll keep reading Cake Wrecks.)
WV mismoder It is a serious mismoder to decorate cakes like this.
And to think, I was planning on a cake more like Baby James' for a baby shower next month. Maybe the monkey would be better!
Ya know, Swamp Thing IS an environmentalist.... being the spokesthing for cloth diapers makes perfect sense. I's still feel a little squicky about eating his baby, though....
The second one's not a monkey, that's just how a baby looks fresh out of the chute. It's preparation for the moment in dessert form.

#1 is a baby frog, natch. It won't need diapers because it'll just stay in the water. (Yes, I know a baby frog is really a tadpole. work with me n stuff.)
#2 does NOT make me want to touch the monkey. Especially considering that it has had collagen lip injections, which I always find disturbing.
#3 is a little young to be wearing all that makeup. good lord.
VW: bledne
My eyes bledne when I saw the green baby.
I think the monkey one is actually kind of cute.
I can't decide which is more frightening -- Swamp Baby or the deformed baby (is that a CCC?)
Coincidentally, I have a baby shower to go to today. This does not bode well.
That monkey (?) cake is just about the most disturbing thing I've seen on this site...
wv: doldedin The opposite of doled out. "Everyone doldedin their photos of horrible cakes to make sure Cakewrecks had plenty to post."
lol!! What were they thinking with the mutant baby! Oh dear....
Wish there were pictures of the poor mother's reactions when presented with these cakes at their showers. Ugh.
Mutant cakes probably still taste good. And that's about all I can say for those guys.

Oh, good god, that last one! My eyes!
Hahaha I LOVE your pop-culture references on here! (For all those lame people who haven't watched SNL, GET WITH IT) :)
Haven't these people ever heard of nekkid mohawk baby carrot jockeys?? THAT is the perfect baby cake!
Come on, people!
Well, maybe the first one was for a new frog baby? Froglet? Not sure, but it can't be a human baby...
The second one reminds me of that Bloodhound Gang video for Bad Touch - not something to associate with a newborn!
And the third - holy cow, I don't even know what to say. Is it a platypus?
Wow. I thought we'd seen it all when it came to baby cakes, but these are truly horrid. Oh my.

word verification: glytoc= Swamp Thing's first word to his new baby.
Isn't the green one a muppet? Grover's second cousin, maybe?
Honestly, the first one sort of looks like a mutant Muppet... or a Sesame Street character with a skin problem.
The first one is obviously a Whammy-Swamp Monster love child!

That baby has HAND feet. Or one heavy frosting load in that diaper.
Wow, these make the baby bum cakes look like a great idea. Never thought I'd say this.
I'd also like to see the reactions of the mothers-to-be / new mothers. There must have been some good ones, especially with the hormones raging.
oh my! That just made my day!!! Despite how well 'crafted' that monkey looks, BWAHHHHH!!! It's a little freekish!
Dear GOD those are heinous! (The "Sprockets" ref was great, tho'...)
Touch my monkey!
Now is the time on Sprockets when we dance!
Good times! I am throwing a baby shower next month. I am doing cupcakes...it would be funnier if I had made that decision after seeing these wrecks.
OMG! What in the world would make someone look at a batch of cupcakes and say "I could totally make a baby out of that!"? Frightening!
I wonder if perhaps the monkey cake didn't start out as a monkey but once they added those giant freakin' ears they decided to go ahead and pipe on some fur...
The last baby's expression Jen...that's not perpetual worry...no...It's just gas :D
That can't possibly be a monkey, it is Chaka from Land of the Lost ;)
Liebe meine abschminke!
The last one is going to haunt my nightmares tonight. It reminds me of bad 80's horror movies. (Chuckie, Master of Puppets, etc)
What, no mention of Elphaba from the musical Wicked for the green baby?
The first one's diaper blends in with the background. Looks like the baby's legs are detached.
Meconium icing - no thanks.
My baby! Someone save my baby!
Dear God, those are truly frightening.
That monkey... er sorry, - make that 'monkey'... looks like it has a Furby or two in its ancestry
Dieter quote for the win!!!!!!
Jenn
OMIGOD!! WHAT kind of mutant babies are people giving birth to these days??? Green diapered frog-babies? Bowtie monkey-babies? I don't even know what to call that last one -- "The Cupcake Cake Baby from Hell" maybe? Oh poor, poor Lily!!
Good grief!! And these cakes are supposed to be for celebrations?
Be afraid. Be VERY afraid!!
The first one obviously didn't wait until after birth to expel his meconium... that's a serious medical problem, potentially harmful to the baby if he breathes it in.
Gross, dude.
Maybe it's because I'm almost due to have my own baby, that these cakes made me laugh out loud this morning! I just hope my sisters don't see these and get any ideas!
Wowie...um...gross.
The alien is somewhat cute. A little. As cute as an alien with a hovering diaper pin/diaper pin belly button accessory can be.
WV:dedeit - that last cake is a little dedeit.
First a FotC reference and now a Dieter one!?
/gets on her hands and knees "We're not worthy! We're not worthy!"
Thank you for making me laugh every day!
That last one must be the offspring of the pig man Kramer tried rescuing from the hospital.
Those baby reproductions are enough to scare the living daylights out of any childless woman attending the baby shower from ever having you-know-what again.
