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? ;)

7 Tips For Gifts From The Garden Month

May is "Gifts From The Garden Month", minions, so let's see what garden-themed gifts our BAKERS have brought us.

::head tilt::

 

Huh.

::head tilt the other way::

 

Huh.

What... what is happening here.

 

Strawberry? Watermelon? Microbial migration?

The world may never know.

 

Well, if there's one gift we can always depend on from bakers, it's definitely carrot cake.

Yep, carrot cakes are always recognizable.

Just look for the circle of... fingers.

(Shhhh. There are innocents present.)

 

Sure, sometimes they get a little cold:

... and lumpy.

 

But grab them when they're fresh, and wreckerator carrots are hard to beat!

Bet you can't wait to get your hands on these, eh?

(Also now my title makes sense. YOU'RE WELCOME.)

 

Thanks to Carissa S., Erin R., Michelle L., Emma R., Sarah W., Vicki D., & Alisha M., who report that actually, they CAN wait.

Haven't you always dreamed of turning out masterpieces like:

Iron Toaster

2 settings: Light or Stark.

 

Mickey Mumps

"Who's the leader of the club
With no immunity?
M-I-C-K-E-Y
Stay away from me!"

 

Buzzankhamun

Boy Pharaoh or Space Explorer?

Can't decide = indemnified!

 

Barney the Carnivore

I love meat, you smell good. Gonna eat your neighborhood! ♫

 

Scary-el

"I'd give anything to have legs so I could walk off this cake."

 

Dora the Deplorable

Brace yourself!

 

And that perennial favorite:

The Cat In Hazmat!

The sun did not shine.
It was too wet to play.
So we sat in the house
And watched the cat decay.

I can't deny how thankful we are to Brad B., Johanna L., Jayme A., Clarissa W., Katey L., Stephanie D., Anony M., and Kristy C., for being good enough to realize these were bad enough.
