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? ;)

Suite Interview

I recently did an interview with Alicia King for Suite 101, the online magazine and writers' network. Unlike my previous interviews, in this one we talk about the writing process behind Wrecks and also about the upcoming Cake Wrecks book. You'll also learn which comic-strip character most resembles my father: a revelation which will probably be news to him, too. (Surprise, Dad!)

Check out the interview here.

More Wreckwear!

Here are a few more fun designs available now over in the Cake Wrecks Zazzle store.

First, brought to you by the creator of the "One Bon-Bon is Poison" tee, the "Monkey See, Monkey Doo-Doo" tee!


Yep, Rebecca of Glitter-Bubbles Jewelry has done it again - and this time she added an adorable skull to the web address, too! Yay!

Look how awesome it looks on this shirt:

The green really brings out his eyes, don't you think?

Next, Elizabeth Douglas of The Shenanigan Files whipped together this little number:

I like to think this is how the site name would look on a "professional" cake.

And after many requests, I finally got around to adding this one:

(It has Cake Wrecks written on the back.)

Enjoy!
