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? ;)

Some of my favorite new submissions this week.

 

It took me entirely too long to realize this IS in English:

Spacing: the Final Frontier of Wreckerating

 

Judging by the CW Facebook page, I see I've trained you wrecky minions well:

Ahh, THE SNARK IS STRONG WITH THIS ONE.

I approve.

 

And just in time for Cheesecake Day (which was yesterday):

(Btw, if it's been a while since you've seen my FB updates, here's a new & easy fix: on the CW page, under "Liked" at the top, click "See First." You'll never miss the wrecky lolz again!)

*****

At first I thought it was a hot dog.
Then maybe a bowel re-section.
Now I just want to stop looking at it:

Somebody help me stop looking at it.

 

To quote JoAnna, who sent this in, "Mmmm, rope fibers!"

And I agree, JoAnna; the clumps of gold glitter really DO make it extra "beachy."

 

And finally, while not professional, this made me laugh out loud:

Video game-specific apology cakes? YES, PLEASE.

Heck, I think this should become a trend. A few more suggestions:

"Sorry I Played Skyrim For 6 Weeks Straight"

"Sorry I Won't Play Portal Co-Op With You Because You're Better At It And It's Annoying"

"Sorry For Beating Your High Score On Angry Birds"

"Sorry I Woke You Up At 3AM Because BioShock Was Scary"

"Sorry I Keep Talking To Claptrap" (WUB WUB!)

 

Thanks to Nancy E., Kristen F., Annie B., Ashley R., JoAnna H., & Anony M. for the beat-boxin' giggles.

Good Luck Wrecking The Castle!

Joanna H. ordered this cake for her 30th birthday:

The horse shoe is for luck.

BECAUSE SHE'S GONNA NEED IT, AMIRITE?

Ahem.

 

Here's what Joanna got instead:

Insert "the trots" joke here. BAHAA TOILET HUMOR.

 

Whitney M. wanted a cake that looked like Neuschwanstein castle for her husband's 30th birthday.

Here's a picture of the castle for reference:

Ha! Come on, now, you'd have to pay someone at least four hundred bucks for a cake like tha...

"I paid $400 for this cake," Whitney writes, "plus $100 for delivery!!!!!!"

Oh. Well, ok, then. Um...

Bummer.

 

And finally, here's the cake Terrisa K. ordered for her wedding:

So, ya know, that's gonna end well.

 

She writes: "I didn't see the cake until I was actually walking down the aisle, whispering to my dad, 'is that my f***ing cake?!'"

Yes, Terrisa. Yes, it is.

 

Thanks to Joanna H., Whitney M., & Terrisa K. for showing us what's black and white and wrecked all over.
