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? ;)

Put The Coffee DOWN

It's not often that a baker submits on of his/her own creations for us to pick on. But Maayan, who both bakes and documents funny food horrors, did just that.

The following diet-assisting monstrosity was actually ordered by a customer. And what is it?


Go ahead, guess. I'll wait...

Spaghetti with tomato-y cream sauce?

An ear?

A cherry, Cheez-Whiz and regurgitation torte?

Nope, nope and nope! Give up?

It's a fetus-with-an-iPod pie!

Uh, I guess fetus cookies would have been going too far?

Thanks to Maayan Z. for being such a great sport!

Great! Now I need some Unicorn Chaser...

I stared, open mouthed, for a good minute trying to decipher what I was looking at. Once I found out, I stared, open mouth, a bit longer...

Wow!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterValerie

what the?!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterThe Halls

I sure hope it's waterproofed!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAnonymous

Yes, but what kind of pie is it? Strawberry? Cherry?

Actually, I thought this was created to celebrate a surgery gone wrong, and the subsequent successful malpractice suit - with the surgeon's iPod dropped into the intestines...

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterdeemack

I just threw up a little... in my mouth :(

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterLaura Beth

Oh my god. I thought it was intestines with some kind of surgery tool left in the body!!

again, oh my god.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterJenni

The photos makes me physically ill.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterThe Accidental Parisian

Fetus, you say? So the orange-y thing is probably the umbilical cord…?? So Feety can run, like 10 miles, while listening to the I-Pod?? Now there’s a sight…as if we needed a worse one.

Fetus with an ipod?
Someone needs a new job.

I'll never eat pie again thanks to that horrific picture!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAnonymous

This is timely. Considering the Universities will soon be filling up with students. We'll get to walk to work in the morning on the much missed vomit covered sidewalks that signifly "Frosh week".

wv: pardy...Yup

And as Stria noted..."Some of us haven't eaten our breakfast yet (and now may never eat again)."

I'm going to print this off, tape it to my fridge, and cancel my Jenny Craig membership. Thanks, Jen!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAnonymous

Oh god . . . that is absolutely disgusting.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAleesuhn_Muhree

WHAT IS THIS I DON'T EVEN

Somebody really bought that? Somebody really ate that?

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterLittle Luxuries

I definitely thought it was a kidney. With an iPod.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterErika

Sadly my first thought was a fetal pig laying in his mother's entrails....

um...then I saw the 'ipod' which I thought was a blood pressure cuff, so I was more than a little confused. Then I read your answer and am MORE confused.....

What kind of drugs was this person on when they ordered this pie?

WV: Argen...the sound I made when I urped up my sandwich after seeing this.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterCottagecheap

nauseating.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterNicole

My thoughts were stomach intestines with an ipod. Like maybe they were giving a pie to someone who swallowed one, as a gag gift.

YUCK just the same.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterGoof

Honestly, I'd be pretty upset if I ordered a fetus wearing an ipod and got a stomach and intestines. I hope the customer didn't have to pay for that.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterroachc420

I wonder what he/she/it is listening to?

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterJust the Right Size

I wish I hadn't been eating when I typed your url in my browser!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterJalula

I don't know how everyone saw the iPod...I saw a fetus (or maybe brain) with a pressure cuff.
That might even make a bit more sense.
Nah.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterTifany

I thought it was a depiction of the top of a superior section through a skull and brain, with a cellphone inside. As in this is what is going to happen to you if you talk on that phone so much.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAviatrix

*speechless*

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterIndy

And here I was going to say a stomach with surrounding intestines. But a FETUS???? Ummmm....okay, maybe if you black out the lights....and squint. Or close your eyes.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterShannon

So...nauseous...

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterShelley Dayton

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.

OMG!!!!! How in the he** did I actually guess that?!?! LOL!!!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterTwila

I think I'm going to go loose my lunch now.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterLisa

Is it sick that i guessed right? (It is sick that someone made such a thing...bleh!)

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterLaura

Mmmmmmmm... fetusy.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterRATSAWGOD

I thought that was going to be weight loss surgery cake. Vile!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered Commentergojirama

Oh no!! That is exactly the kind of brain-looking goo I found online when I was looking for inspiration for my medically themed cupcakes. Very horror movie, hannibal... eek!!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterCupcakin' It Up

Aaaah!!! I can't unsee it!!! I'm now damaged for life.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAnonymous

Okay, that's seriously so gross! That's even worse than the fetus cookies, because at least they resemble a cookie when you look at it!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterHeather Justesen

OMGosh I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAnonymous

I thought it was a celebration of a stomach pump removal of your mp3 player... And I still think it looks more like a stomach than a fetus. It Would explain the squiggly lines around it (other organs/flesh?) I suppose.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterXyie Fourseasons

that literally jolted me when I scrolled down. So very wrong.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered Commentercakelady72

More like a very early-term embryo pie. They're usually a little more defined than that by the time they're bigger than an iPod.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered Commenteranaceofkidneys

Wh-what? *Why*? In the name of all that is holy, *why*? I-I have no words for this. *headshake* I can't decide whether this is one of the most hilarious or one of the most disturbing Wrecks I've ever seen. Maybe both.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterhominivorax

Oh.My.Gawd. I think I just lost my appetite for the next month.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterLizzy Leigh

I think it looks like a heart with a pace maker, with lots of squiggly fat around it. Yeah, that's pretty diet-inducing too.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAndrea

Hopefully this iFetus won't become a trend, we have enough baby shower wrecks out there that would make Jason Vorhees cry.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterBree

Oh. My. God. That actually made me gag a little bit.

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterSpacegirlnz

OMG. That takes the whole realistic baby cake to a whole new level. You thought that was disturbing? Apparently it can only get better. Yum (as she fights a gag) Thanks for sharing?

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterClaire

OH. MY. GOSH. I have just one more thing to say. WHY????????????

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterlifeisgreat772

gross!

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered Commentermarypoppins

It's a WHAT?! Oh dear lord! *hurk*

August 20, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterI used to be a person

Am I the only one who saw a headless lamb with an ipod ripping out of its stomach surrounded by brains and circled by a trail of blood? Perhaps the result of a Pagan ritual?
