Nicki Minaj HAS A TAIL! (Always believed she was from another planet)
Dead deer with arrows that puncture their dear heads
Cupcakecake bees that appear to be quite dead
Please put the photo there under the “Rays”
These are the Cake Wrecks I hope for these days.
Steve’s somewhat moldy, perhaps he’s just nauseous
Nicki Minaj never looked quite so gorgeous
I think the late doggie would like to go play
These are the Cake Wrecks I hope for these days
With best wishes
You’re dead to us
Hope that makes you sad
I look for my Cake Wrecks when I’m feeling down
And then I don’t feel so bad.
The "You're dead to us now" cake is actually pretty well done. Punctuation and grammar are all correct and it's done neatly. Only quibble is that "Dead" probably shouldn't be capitalized... unless that's part of the story? Is the person leaving their friends to go to Georgia and portray a zombie on The Walking Dead?
One must know the story behind the rainbow cake.
Today's caks proudly brought to you by the Von Crapp Family Bakers....
That poor deformed deer
@SuBee: Brava!
Who names their road kill, now really? Poor Herschel.
Bahahahahahahahaha :D
Who even orders a "Dead to me" cake? If it's real, it's easier and cheaper not to have a party. If it's a joke, I hope the recipient has ironclad self esteem.
@mel... Bwwwaaahahahaha!
*shudder* That bulldog cake is going to feature in my nightmares tonight!
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!! Well done, CakeWrecks team!!
@SuBee and @Mel -- AWESOME
LOL!! Classic. Great post, team!
Yesterday my brother-in-law hit a dear on his way to work. His car is totaled. Thankfully, he's alright. I think the deer looked suspiciously like that one up there. O.O
Steve has a slightly murderous look in his eye.
@SuBee ~ I totally sang along and will be teaching this to my grandchildren someday. Classic!
The frightening dog cake is ... well, frightening, but awfully well done, really, don't you think?
Yesterday, Princess Bride. Today, Sound of Music. Double-win! If tomorrow is Monty Python my week will be complete...
I kind of love the Niki Minaj cake. :) She is so bizarre that that cake is perfect. I also want to know what the Dead to us cake is about.
I love the dead to me cake. I will try and focus on that because the others are giving me nightmares. well done!
Now who thinks, "What my friend really wants is a dead dog head cake!"? Or perhaps they are planning to put it in someone's bed? What the frosting...
CW team, great job today!
Ohhhh... I know someone I'd like to send that rainbow cake to...
OMG!! LOL!! and that rainbow cake ... who would ... why would ... *facepalm*
Cujo: a 200 pound St Bernard with rabies that terrorizes a small town.
#7: a 20 pound cake with conjunctivitis that terroizes birthday celebration.
Sad deer, baby-poo-faced alien elf, dog cake for animal abusers... But what the heck is up with that pink runny-black-spot thing? What *is* that? At first I thought that green thing was a palm tree on top, 'cause that would make so much sense, but it's not, so now I'm even more confused.
Loved the Princess Bride quotes yesterday and the homage to the Sound of Music here, but I agree with herding.cats... Monty Python tomorrow would be epic!
We had a cake similar to the rainbow one when a friend/co-worker left for another job. He thought it was hilarious!
Oy! Poor Herschel!
"You're Dead to us now, we hope you fail." That's horrible! That sentence has incorrect capitalization and a comma splice! What is wrong with people?
#1: Wow, poor Hershel....he was born deformed, then he was mutilated, then they put him on a cake.
#3: Looks like Steve stayed too long in the spray-tan booth getting ready for "vacay" in the Bermuda triangle. (that's where they go for the Boreal Elf Labor Union's contractually mandated Jan-Nov "off-season"...elves aren't nearly as industrious as they'd have you believe)
#5: Judging by its smile & enlarged heart, this is a male (or drone) bee, which has died shortly after mating.
#7 Must be a road-kill pooch, seems the ravens have already picked out it's eyes. The empty-socket effect is more disturbing than the lolling-tongue effect, and is the frosting on that cake.....meringue? Blasphemy!
#8 Well the face is pretty realistic, but the stick body is inexcusable.
AGREED!!! I'm thirding the motion...
monty...monty...Monty...Monty...MONTY...MONTY...MONTY... ok, now everyone chant with me....Monty Python, Monty Python.................
OMG this was wonderful, two sing alongs I actually KNOW the total rhythm/music to!
The "Rays above picture" one really made me laugh. All it's missing is some manta rays swimming above the picture to make it an even wreckier wreck.
My son, Herschel, (means Deer in Hebrew), wanted a deer for his Bar Mitzvah cake. The bakery assured us it could handle it (they did a terrific job on other cakes for us in the past). Although his cake was something of a delicious failure (oh, yes, it was yummy!), we got more laughs out of it than we would have admired it were it done nicely! This photo was taken shortly before the poor deer lost his head. Rather spectacularly!
Sometimes I wish we could click "like" on individual comments, sort of like on facebook. If I could, I would "like" SuBee and Mel's comments today!
But but but...it's a deer named HERSCHEL! What could be cooler than THAT!
I sang all the way through this!!!! I loved it!!
Had a horrible, rotten,no good day; and I needed this
So bad!!! As usual my drug of choice... Cake wrecks.... Lmao!!
On a side note, glad my Sound of Music viewing finally
Came in handy!
Does anybody else think the Nicki Minaj cake looks just like one of the Bubble Guppies?!
@ PFlamingo - I *think* it's meant to be a strawberry. Took me a while, though!
Why, why, why have I never had anything remotely resembling a wreck from the bakers at Wegman's? My life will NEVER be complete! ;(
I think the rainbow cake is pretty, but it does have a comma splice...
@SuBee and @Mel are some of my favorite things! I sang, and oh, how I sang and then I laughed and oh how I snorted!
Cake wreck team and @SueBee thanks for the singalong. Well done!
I want the "you're dead to me cake". Almost good enough for a Sunday Sweets.
@Becki: It did rather remind me of Molly, yes...
Did nobody else catch the Star Wars reference in the title?! Love it!
I love that they couldn't be bothered to change the tip on the icing bag for the green stripe in the rainbow cake!
@MovieMom, @Maureen, @Amy: thank you…. :-)
Poor deer what did it do to deserve a fate like that? Lol. That rainbow cake is beautiful even if the sentiment is not. Would love to know what it means. Unless it is for someone taking a new job else where lol.
@CBushLite: thank you! singing and snorting...life doesn't get much better... :-)
Bwahaha! My guess is the rainbow cake is for a co-worker leaving a company. I've heard people at my workplace express similar half-joking sentiments when someone we like finds another job.
As for the Hershel deer - anyone else getting Walking Dead vibes? Colleen, I'm glad to hear everyone got enjoyment out of the wreck, and I kind of want to see a post-decapitation pic.
Aaand now I have The Sound of Music stuck in my head... Thanks for the laughs, as always - I needed that!
YIKES
Wow! Did no one else notice the knife at the base of the decapitated dog cake?? TERRIFYING!!
Loved the rainbow cake, though! :)
Really funny.
