Err Supply

And I know when I've gone too far!
AND I'M PROBABLY GONNA CHARGE YOU EVEN THOUGH IT TOPPLED OVER 'CAUSE I REALLY HAVE TO PAY FOR MY CAR!
But I don't think you should judge me
'Cuz you know I'll always be here
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? ;)

Oh, way to ruin one of the best 80s songs ever! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
The second last one should have had "Welcome to the Gates of Hell" written on itβ¦but they probably couldn't spell that.
Thanks for the earworm john (the hubby of jen), lol
Could the black and orange cake be a pretty cunning Jayne hat? (Or rather a bad attempt at one?)
Brava! Now I'm stuck with that earworm:-)
Just when I thought nothing could make me dislike Air Supply more. Thank you.
Thank you.
I think the third from last cake depicts spring flowers bursting forth from a snowball. Now tell me that's not beautiful.
But that Muppet hair is spot-on!
That second last one put the price UP? From $3.19 to $4.79??
OMG - JHoJ - TOO TOO FUNNY. Sooooooooooooo glad I wasn't drinking coffee or eating - THAT would be a problem. Just when I think I've seen the wreckiest cakes.... even MORE pop up! It's a miracle!
That was amazing! It took me a little while to remember the original song and tune, but there are some days I don't know the song you guys use at all.
The birthday cake with green and blue scrawl had me perplexed trying to figure out what it said. I thought the "birthday" was crossed out and replaced with a different word. I finally realized they just ran out of green icing, had to use blue to literally dot the I and cross the T and then write the name.
And I need to know what the baker was thinking who made the little flowers coming out of the egg shell.
Anyone else find it ironic that the ONE word that is difficult to spell, that is the longest one...it's the one spelled correctly?
Also, DUUUUDE!!! Earworm....thanks!
Made me laugh though, thanks John (thoJ)!!!
John (thoj), Bravo! Love this long post. The Lady Ass. Fudge is 1.99 in British Pound Sterling, which amounts to 2.61 per lb. in U.S. Dollars, a Bargain! at any price for Ass. Fudge (oh hurl).
In Cake #3, the spelling mystifies me, but am I seeing things or did they spell APPRECIATION correctly? Being a Cakewreckoholic, I can't be sure of my own spelling prowess lately, LOL. Seriously, they got it right for the longest word on the cake. I'm guessing by the other boo boo's, that English is not the wreckorators first language.
1) I'm glad you told us that's a moose. Cuz.... I TOTALLY did NOT get "moose" from that.
2) I think the "birthday bash" cake is intentional. Funny in the context of the song, but intentional.
You say moose head, I say ghost clown penis bat.
The topsy turvy stack cake, (know just how to stack cake) one is really not bad. Isn't that the way they're supposed to look?
@Tiffany: No, it says, "Save #3.19." That means the original price was $7.98.
At what point do you think to yourself, "Hmmmm, I wonder what a 'Day Shiff' is? Oh wait, maybe it's 'SHIFT'!"
Apparently, the answer is NEVER.
I cannot even begin to tell you how much this Air Supply reference has made my day. Thank you. Legit, seriously. Thank you. I'm one of the sad old folks who loves them un-ironically.
Nagzilla, I'm right there with you! I've lurked this blog, as well as Epbot, for years, but I was finally compelled to post because this is one of my favorite songs of all time. Jen and John, you nailed it with your parody! I share my favorite posts with my husband; this one will be shared for sure.
On another note, I must say that I actually like the idea of the colored candy corn on Cake #12 (or the fourth cake from the bottom, if that's easier). It reminds me of Christmas lights and I feel like something really cute could be done with it. This cake, of course, is not it...
@ Nagzilla- I love Air Supply's songs, too! But then, I'm a romantic! Plus, so many of them were about my life at the time! 8-/
Great post John!
Awesome post! Aaaaand now I'm off to listen to some Air Supply. :-D
I'm all out of love...for these cakes.
"And Clubcard points too!" BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
# The blue icing is meant to look like ocean waves with plastic sea creatures, but then the bottom has...flames? Chili peppers? What is going on there?
#6 ....Snorlax...? What...what have they done to you?!
#8 This is the newest technological advancement in artificial turf... perfect imitation of natural grass, including turning brown!
#10 No wonder it toppled over, the inside of the top cake appears to be uncooked batter! Talk about "half-baked"... yeeeck!
@Crystal: I agree that the orange and brown one is a Jayne hat.
For the uninitiated: Just Google "Jayne hat."
That's not just hair....it's the hippie love child of a wookie and an atat!
I can't help but picture what godaweful colour a person's tongue would look appear for a WEEK after eating that first cake.
Does that bear look like it's giving birth?
Err sorry for being clueless BUT WHAT SONG IS EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT?!? I never heard of the band 'Air Supply'....
That second last one is Jayne's hat. From firefly
OK, maybe it's just me, but I think that the bear, despite being kind of misshapen, is also just totally adorable.
How did the decorator manage to misspell both "district" and "shift " but spell "appreciation" correctly?
I kind of like the bear though he looks more like the groundhog from Caddyshack to me!
Those last few cakes...I got nothin'!
I'm with Crystal, i think that the second to last one is meant to be Jayne's hat. Man walks out of a store with a cake like that, and you he's not afraid of anything.
(long time follower, first time commenter)
I definitely see Jayne's hat in that discount cupcake cake! and honestly, the bear is kind of cute... in a Miyazaki/Pokemon sort of way (despite the horrific airbrushing). I like his little toes.
The last one is clearly a horseshoe sparkler volcano.

You should also thank Jim Steinman for all those words to substitute. Did Meat Loaf ever record this song.
And I agree about the cunning hat, once it was pointed out.
I was so busy singing along with the lyrics the first time I scrolled that I forgot to look at the cakes! I will admit - I love Air Supply and was happy to see a song I actually recognized.
Am I the only one who wondered why there was mozzarella on a cookie with flowers?
I may not know much, but I'm lost in love...for the Cake Wrecks team!
Thanks for the '80s flashback. I think. :p
Ooohh, it's a MOOSE head. And there I was thinking it was bat-winged albino men's bits with chocolate chip eyes. Silly me.
The snowball/egg split thing - if you look closely it could be a lady's face shouting flowers into a man's face. I wouldn't mind if I shouted flowers - irises for irritated, violets for vexed, roses for rage. If you see daffodils, run. Run far and run fast.
"Here's your mouse head cake, just as you ordered!"
"What?! I said I wanted a MOOSE head!"
"Uh...gimme 5 minutes."
I am dying!! One of your best EVER!!πππ
How can you say that last one looks like nothing at all? It is clearly the letter U with a volcano erupting fireworks.
