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? ;)

Like A Bridge Over Troubled Icing

[A group of Wreckerators, some in frosting-smeared aprons, walk on stage and begin to sing...]

 

When they're leery

Feeling small...

When tears are in...

... their eyes,


Why not buy them all?

All on one side...

Ohhhhh
'cause spa- cing's tou- ou- ough...

[joining hands]

When friends just caaan't beee found!

[soprano solo]

I assure you, that's "Harry Potter!"

[chorus]

Why not pay me now?

I've a fridge full of stubbled otter:

[3-part harmony]

Why not pay me now?

 

A very happy birthday to Art Garfunkle - who we hope will forgive us - and many thanks to Liz K., Lynnette W., Paul A., Michelle S., Rachel H., Lexi, C.H., & Katie S. for helping us appreciate the sound of silence.

It's a little-known Hollywood fact that Frosty's younger brother *also* auditioned for the part, but since "Weepy The Snowman" was not considered as festive, he didn't get the part. This disappointment was the final straw for his lifelong depression, and one day soon after, his older sister (Icy) came upon a small puddle, already drying, with a pair of earmuffs beside it.

Lol I love the stubbled otter. I wouldn't eat the thing mind you it looks like a shag carpet got run over Mr. Bill style and some poor critter got killed with it. Poor crying snowman cake though. No one wants to eat him either.

Is there a story behind the "WE HOPE YOU FAIL YOU'RE DEAD TO US NOW" cake? I'm really curious.

If I had a million dollars...I'd buy you some art, like a Picasso or a Garfunkle. But not any of these cakes.

That road kill one is pretty good as far as anything with road kill in front of it can be..it actually looks like something furry and squashed. Something I wouldln't want to eat.

When I thought that was a road-kill cake, I was appalled. Then I realized it was a "Sorry I ran over your dog" cake.

Sick. Sick,sick,sick.

I'm going to go snuggle my favorite dog.

It's a good thing that wand says "wand" on it, otherwise I wouldn't know what it is.
