What's a Wreck?

A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.

Now, don't you have a photo you want to send me? ;)

John's Birthday Suit

It's my birthdy! And by "my" I mean it's john (the hubby of Jen)'s birthay. Granted, I don't usually speak of myself in the third person (unless I'm in the midst of seduction [which, admittedly, rarely works (but John never knows unless he tries!)])...but...um...where was I?

Oh, yeah: It's my birhday!

I originally wanted to write about those Canadian Nazi carrots you can buy at Epcot, but then I figured I'd just show you a bunch of misspelled cakes, so my own misspellings look international. Because I'm crazy like that. And giving. Yep, John's a giver.

[eyebrow waggle]

Look! A misspelling!

I believe it's spelled "Shirk." And since I did avoid seeing the last movie, this kind of works.

Isn't this called an oxymaroon?

Although if you roll the "r" while reading it out loud, you'll sound just like Sherk! Go on. Try it.

See what I mean? Now, all together: "Grrrreet job, don-kay!"

This one also seems a little contradictionary:

"Stop that right this second! Don't make me pull this event over!"

And since you long-time Wreckies know how fond I am of Earth Day cakes...


Listen! Do you smell Epcot?

And finally, this is not a cake, but I've gotta say...

...I pay way more for Jen's pasties.

Hm? What's this? Jen's telling me "pasties" are also British meat pies.

John thinks she's trying to tell him something. [eyebrow waggle]

John also would like to know why Jen rolls her eyes so much.

And now, because it's my brithday, I want to give you something special. Yes, that's right: John wants to give you something.

[duckface]

[Barry White music]

Awwww yeahhh. Mmmmmmm, baaaby. John knows what you want:

Cake Wrecks stuff!

So, leave me a comment, and I'll pick the sexiest two to win personalized copies of Cake Wrecks. (I'll even let Jen sign 'em.) The next sexiest two will win Cake Wrecks wall calendars.

In fact, because I'm such a giver, we're going to give stuff away every day this week, with even *more* give-aways on Facebook. Who loves me? Who is it? Oh yeah, it's you. Mmmhmmm. Happy briday to ME.

Check tomorrow's post for the winner's names, and also for your next chance to win stuff. Also watch the CW Facebook page this week for more chances to win exclusive CW pin packs and assorted goodies.

Other posters have raised a good question,
So if I may make a suggestion:
For an edible pasty
That's both cheap and tasty,
Just stick Fruit Roll-Ups on her breasts, son.

Happy birthday John! May the farce be with you and Jen and may all the cake wreckerators not destroy your birthday cake if you get one lol.

Happy Birthday! John, I betcha if John makes some awesome Steampunk pasties, Jen would totally wear them for John...........

And my captcha right now is "impailu" which in my head came out as "impale you" which made me laugh hysterically. Because I have a dirty mind.

Late to the party (haha get it, party? Birthday? Oh, come on, it's 12:30 a.m. where I am and I'm loopy), but happy belated one. Side note: Gretchen Wilson wasn't kidding...you can get pasties WAY cheaper at Walmart, and they look the same as the $100 brands.

Just for you, John: a cute 'n' sexy Birthday Suit video. It even has cake in it!

HIPY PAPY BTHETHDTH THUTHDA BTHUTHDY - that is Owlish for "Many Happy Returns of the Day", at least it is according to Owl (from Winnie the Pooh), who should know, after all.

I thought the "Greet Job" cake was for the new hire at Wal-Mart. "Hello, and welcome to your new job as customer greeter. Have some cake and do a 'greet' job!" heh heh

Finally, I can think of nothing sexier than the title of this post, which I just saw... "John's Birthday Suit"... snort... giggle... yes, Jen is a lucky, lucky woman. :)

I love how the Wreckerator of CW1 has obviously started to spell it "Shr...oh dang, need to fix that, I'll just add a wobbly line at the bottom of the r and another in the middle - there, it's an e, no-one's gonna notice!".

Crape the diem, John!

What a coincidence, I just had pasties last night! And I had some meat pies too!

And that's about as sexy as you get from one guy to another. And if you are thinking to yourself, "that was kind of a let down," that's what she said.

Birthday Streeeeeeak!....

... of frosting on my keyboard as I dropped cake from my fork whilst giggling over your post. Hapy Brithday. Hope it brings you much frivolity, and pasties of whichever variety most floats your boat.

Exactly how sexy must the comment be to win?

'Cause I'm pretty good at the ole eyebrow waggle, too, and I've been known to do a palpitation-inducing eyelash flutter, too!

If only I could be prosaically more sexy :( Perhaps next time :)

In any event: Happy Birthday, John!!

It's a shame the 2010 cake is wrong -- the lettering is lovely!

Happy birthday John, bet it was greet! And yes, that was international.

Ps, I'll see you one eyebrow waggle, and raise you a pastie.

In Cornwall they do it with a crimped edge, yeah baby! How's that for sexy ;)

...What do you mean meat and potatoes in pastry doesn't do it for ya? It's totally hot!

Cornish pasties are the best, you can get 'em with just about any filling over here in Blighty. Mmmmm pasties...

Ooooh yeeeaaahh John, right now I'm wearing nothing but a plastic Spiderman head, because I know that's your favorite. You bring the frosting and I'll bring the brown food coloring. Mmmmm, yeah I wanna see you as naked as a carrot jockey. Bring on the edible paper lingerie! Also, it's cool if your wife watches as long as she doesn't correct the spelling on my "Awesum" tattoo.

Happy Birthday Mr. President. I mean, John, and not Kennedy. That should qualify is second-sexiest, right?

Not wanting to be sexy, BUT, have you two seen Raising Hope yet? Just love your contradictionary.......they have one word each episode; let's see, Halloween's was "deceitery"! Hahahahaha!!!

A day late, but I was trying to think of something sexy....didn't happen.

Anyway, I'll sing you a song I wrote:

Happy Birthday! Now you're one year older. Happy Birthday! You made a trip around the sun. Happy Birthday! Your good friends have all gathered. Let's shower you with presents, cut the cake, and have some fun!

Or, if you're tired of cake:
♪ Let's shower you with presents, the rest of your life has just begun. ♫

WV: tingel
I just tingel with excitement at the thought of Melvira singing you their version of Happy Birthday, Mr. President.

(That's my #1 choice for sexiest post.)
