Multiple Choice Wrecks

The great thing about modern art is that the subject matter is often left open to interpretation. So for these cakey specimens, I figured I'd give you a few options:
c) a cactus, to show how "cuddly" Mandy is
b) dumbbells in front of a giant graffiti-ed pickle
c) a skateboard

b) Something the under-14 set really shouldn't be looking at
c) a corset? Er, I mean, a corset. Yeah.

Wow, you guys weren't kidding about the beer basket wreckerator website! It's a treasure trove of wreckiness! Everything is tilting to the right, sweaty and shiny, and just a little blurry around the edges. I'm especially partial to the pregnant Dora the Explorer. Although, I have to say, my son would kill for that Yugi-oh cake, no matter how wrecky it is.
The steak one reminded me of the doctor's illustration of my IUD. Lovely. Just what I want on a cake.
@Joan: "I thought the T-bone cake was the state of South Carolina seceding from itself."
LMAO...perfect caption. :)
Happy to hear so many other people saw an IUD in the T-Bone cake.
Okay, I think that website (http://www.tiersofjoycakes.net/novelty.htm) is a cruel lie. I refuse to believe anyone who could make that divine Strawberry Shortcake house could also make that monstrosity of a Shrek cake.
Ok, so I was cruising around on the internet today for local bakers for my mom's wedding cake. Lo and behold I stumbled across the "African beer basket" photo on a local bakery's website. I screeched in terror/delight/hilarity and immediately turned around the laptop so my sister could see it (she visits this blog as well). Let's just say that their body of work is fully represented by that specimen. "Professional" bakers people! Professional!
WoW!!! I checked out the web-site that "Beer Basket came from, and some of those cakes are AMAZING!! (ans some are such awful crap!) How can there be such a difference in the cakes? Are some done while on a bender? BAFFLING!!
YOu know. when i first saw the first one....thats going to get confusing. Okay. When I initially viewed the first picture, I thought it was a voodoo doll hand with red pins stuck in. Then I looked again and I though it was actually SUPPOSED to look like a and goin through sparse acupuncture. Then I read the available possibilities I thought they were a joke, because o COuRSE it was an acupunctured hand.....though out of those I would say minnows attacking a log. :)
I laughed til I cried over the wishbone jumping rope comment. Perfect!!
The Mandy-one says 'Hiep Hoera' which is Dutch for Hip Hooray.
I believe that the inscription on the first one reads "Hiep Hoera". It's a dutch expression related to the English "Hip Hooray," commonly associated with birthdays. The first letter is just some strange cursive form of an "H."
For all of those on the Mandy cake: It's Dutch for Hip Hurray, Hiep Hoera. Now, at least that problem solved, the thing that needs a wax job stil leaves us guessing...
"A wishbone jumping rope"! Too funny! Thanks for the good laugh.
#1 A moldy piece of green bread being eaten by a bunch off vicious flys.
#2 The Holy Hand grenade of Antioch from MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS AND THE HOLY GRAIL. Funniest movie ever!
#3 A t-bone steak. The inscription totally gave it away.
#4 REALLY small snow men in front of a snow board.
#5 A weird tree trunk with a flowery bouquet of leaves on top, and a flowery bush at the bottom.
