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? ;)

A few of my favorite new submissions this week:

 

An oceanography institute held a dessert contest for their employees, but someone apparently decided to cheat a bit, aaaand:

....hilarity ensued.

I like how this person immediately threw the store under the bus. Better for people to know you cheated than think you drew THAT, am I right?

(Though, in the baker's defense, that's a real whale of a penis she drew there.)

 

And speaking of less-than-family-friendly cake decorating, you've got to watch out for some of these bakers and their four-letter-words:

Thank goodness the snowman censor was there to spare the innocent.

 

It's decided, I'm calling them this from now and on:

WHATADEEEEEAL!

 

Here's one to file under "Dear God, What IS That Thing?!"

Look closely, and you can almost hear the shrieking eels.

(That's a rather obscure Princess Bride reference. If you got it, let's be friends.)

 

Btw, ever wonder what some of these cakes are even for?

Well, alrighty, then.

 

Thanks to David E., Anony M., Ruth C., Autumn J., & Rebecca H. for not "Russian" these wrecks.

Obscure reference? You keep using that phrase. I do not think it means what you think it mean.

Maybe the baker that makes the lemon and poopy seeds cake took his recipe from this book here
Or maybe miss Poo made it herself!

I got the (not) obscure Princess Bride reference. Loved it. I also "got" the snow = 4 letter word joke. However, it seems that the icer just made an O where he/she should have made the N. WHY? Our schools are failing.

Thanks for all the laughs.

Yay! We can be friends -- I knew the "To the pain" reference! It's one of my favorite scenes in Princess Bride
