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? ;)

Sunday Sweets: More Star Wars!

With the future of Star Wars looking better than it has in, lessee, when did Episode 1 come out, again? [evil grin] Well, anyway, it is definitely time to celebrate!

 

And when it comes to Star Wars, you just can't get any more classic than this kickin' Millenium Falcon cake:

"She may not look like cake, but she's got icing where it counts."

 

Or how about Luke's (edible!) X-wing crash-landed on a cakey Dagobah, complete with dry-ice smoke effects?

(By Luscious Layers Bakery)

WOW.

 

Of course you can't have Dagobah without everyone's favorite pint-sized Jedi Master:

Yoda!

 

I admit it: I'm still a sucker for Ewoks.

Now who's eating who, huh?

 

Although I find most fans these days prefer a certain bounty hunter:

He's no good to me stale.

 

Let's all give a hearty "UTINI!" for this incredible Jawa:

(By Petitfour)

 

And I'm sorry; I couldn't resist:

(By Mike's Amazing Cakes)

Hee!

 

Can't decide on a single bad guy for your cake?
Why not combine three of 'em, like this?

(By Nichi Cakes)

Super cool.

 

On the other hand, does it get any cuter than R2-D2 in a bow tie?

(By Gateaux Inc.)

I think not. 

 

Ahh, but I'm afraid R2 has some SERIOUS new competition in the "adorable droid" category.

That's right, roll on out here, BB8!

(By Cake Rush)

SQUEEE!

Can't wait to see this little guy in action in the new movie.

 

Happy Sunday, everyone!

Friday Favs 5/1/15

Some of my favorite new submission this week.

 

Bakers, take a note:

Some of you will get that reference.

And that's enough for me.

 

Sometimes I think I should just let you guys do the captions, though.

For example, Patty titled this one, "Spring! Butterfly love!"

And combined with that insane-eyed vomit pile there it just cracked. me. UP.

 

Then there was this e-mail, which had only a single word:

"Ladylike."

[mic drop]

 

This week! On E! True Hollywood Story! How one lovable sidekick:

 

Really hit the powder:

Oh, Olaf, say it isn't so.

 

And finally, they didn't want any writing, so they asked for the Alligator cake "as is."

Sadly, they didn't get it.

But then again, neither did the baker.

:D

 

Thanks to Laura E., Patty M., Jane, Julie V., & Staci O. for reminding me of this snippet of wisdom from Twitter:
