Play It Again, Donkey!
July 17, 2012 Today's Wreck is so unrecognizable I figured I better give you as many clues as possible before showing it to you.
Clue #1: He's big, green, and lives in a swamp.
Clue #2: He's a cartoon ogre.
Clue #3: His name is Shrek.
Clue #4: He looks like this:
Ok, have you guessed who it is yet?
'Cuz here comes the Wreck!
(Choo choo!)
AAAAAUUUGGGHHH!!!
Ahem.
Ok, so it's shiny, toothy, and has a homicidal glint in its dead, dead eyes.
On the other hand, now we know what would happen if the Incredible Hulk and Sloth from the Goonies ever had a love child. Right, Michelle Y.?

How could anyone turn a nice, friendly ogre into that horrendous mess??? Are bakers all blind????
I'm pretty sure they are all compulsive liars telling customers that of course they can make a Shrek cake, or a Mickey Mouse cake, or whatever.
AAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEE!!!! Dear lord that's horrifying!! :O
Who is that?
This is from Dreamworks' sister studio, Nightmareworks.
Sung to “My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean”
My body is filled with emotion
Closer to disgust than to glee
I think I will make a commotion
That doesn’t look like Shrek to me
Shiny, toothy, part of his ear is missing, you see?
Should I eat him, before he tries to eat me?
He looks like he spawned in the ocean
HIs eyes just make me want to flee
But I must not act on that notion
Until I’ve saved my family
Homicidal glint in his eyes, can’t you see, look see!
Scarred for life now. Too bad, since I’m only 3.
Did someone actually accept this travesty of a cake and pay for it?
From the creepy eyes up it looks like a Gremlin. And Shrek. And The Hulk. And Sloth. And a little bit like Maurice from LIttle Monsters. I wonder how much she paid for this; she got a GREAT deal! 5 monsters in one!
OMG. That is hilarious!
(and really flippin' scary)
Looks like the decorator took an uterus cake, painted it green and called it a day.
Aha. It's summer rerun season!
For some reason that reminds me of the aliens at the end of "Explorers". That is a great kids movie by the way.
Looks more like a World of Warcraft goblin.
Are you absolutely sure that Yoda didn't have a terrible accident??
I believe this is Shrek's cousin, Shriek.
Wait... this is Shrek after emulating that lady who loves tanning so much....(squint, and you can see the resemblance)....
@ Sharyn: :-)
I am still shuddering from the thought of Shrek and The Hulk getting anywhere near each other for the purpose of creating a Love Child. Never mind what said LC would look like.
Is it just me or does it look like they used a Scooby cake pan?
Ladies and gentlemen,
I present to you the love child of Larry the Cucumber and Sid from 'Ice Age'.
*shudder*
Poor kid. He'll have a rough life. Wait...did someone punch him in the eye??
That's not so much Shrek as a SHRIEK of agony.
If Yoda and Golum had a love child......
Sharyn FTW! :)
Sung to "I'm a believer" (from the Shrek soundtrack, appropriately!)
I once thought that
Bakers just made yummy things
Meant for a birthday;
Wedding or random glee
Now they’re out to get me
That's the way it seems
Scary pastries are now haunting
All my dreams
Then I saw that face
Now I’m a big heaver
Not a trace
Of food in my mouth
I’ve turned green!
I’m a big heaver
I couldn’t squee now
If I tried!
I thought cake was
great; yummy with frosting
But what’s the white thing
On the giant nose?
Oh no!
Why are his eyes staring
At me that way?
Is he going to bring on “to the pain?”
Then I saw that face
Now I’m a big heaver
Not a trace
Of food in my mouth
I’ve turned green!
I’m a big heaver
I couldn’t squee now
If I tried!
I laughed so hard when I saw this. And then I read the comments for this and laughed even more. I'm still laughing.
Sharyn bwahahaha. That is a horror, the kid who got it is probably still babbling to himself and crying D:
@mel -- "Shriek" is great. I was thinking "Blech". And you're right about the tanning lady...
@ScaperMama -- that was, as Shrek might say, "Ruddy Brilliant!" PERFECT choice of song and words.
LOL @ Mel!!!
Put a (clean, obviously) sock next to the cake and tell your kid it's Dobby the Elf of Harry Potter fame. Unwrecked!
I just watched a Dr. Who rerun last night, The Runaway Bride. The one where Donna is about to get married and then an Arachnoss comes back to Earth to release her children from the Earth's core to devour everyone. If that "Shrek" was red, I'd say it was a very good likeness of the Arachnoss Empress. Those "Shrek" "ears" and "forehead" look like extra eyes, to me.
It *kind of* looks like the Shrek from the original books. I just don't think that the creator knew that.

I agree that it kind of looks like the book Shrek, but it is still a horrible wreck. Book Shrek would love it.
Oh my. What a disaster. I like those hints at the beginning, though. They really help things out! *scrolls up* *scrolls back down* IZ CONFUZED And Sharyn, as always, hilarious song!
The proper term for this is "Shwreck".
And I think it looks a bit like Golem posing for a school picture.
But that's just me.
The voices told me so.
And they're never wrong.
Except when they are.
But when the voices are wrong, the Andanusians tell me things.
But only if I'm not wearing my special hat.
It's made of foil.
Maybe the wreckerator is a fan of the ogre from William Steig's book rather than the movies (yeah, right)? Here.
I honestly think that is the greenest cake I have ever seen.
Well the ears look about right :/
BWAHAHA, I was totally thinking Sloth from Goonies before you even said it! XD
No lie, my first thought when I saw this photo was, "Hey, cool Slimer cake!"
I looked at it & I saw Aahz, from the Myth-Adventures series.
Fun books, y'all ought to read them.
YES Susanna K, that's exactly what I was thinking! Only this has a slightly rounder nose. And more crystal-meth-y eyes.
I think someone had a little too much
with the airbrush machine.
Well, it's big and green, I'll give them that. And looks kinda like Steve Buscemi.
guess what i'll be having nightmares about tonight.
@ScaperMama - your song lyrics are phenomonal. Well done! That cake - not so much...
At first glance, I thought it was Ferengi.
Well if it isn't evil killer clowns now it is zombie like things that come from a swamp. Horrifying and also glad to note I live nowhere near a swamp so that thing can't get me lol. I think that wreckerator is aiming for nightmares and succeeded.
This is how they got around copyright infringement.
Deep green disaster
Recipient scarred for life
It's Yoda roadkill
Someone is going to have green poop for days...
I guess you could say this is Yoda's twin who had gone to the dark side. I know I was jolted more than a bit. I do hope the poor person who had ordered this refused it after laughing themselves silly of course.
Shrek could have used this cake as his no trespassing sign!
sometimes, actually all the time, i wonder how these bakers manage to stay in buisness....
The last Shrek movie actually featured a Cake Wreck... http://www.doblu.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/shrekfa1033.jpg
