9 Out of 10 Child Psychologists Agree:
August 26, 2009 These cakes will keep them in business for a loooong time.
"Come closer, children. We only want to wish you a happy birthday. Hehehehe. Thaaat's right, just a littttle closer...."
[insane giggling]
"What? Haven't you ever seen a partially melted M&M before? I may only have a hand stump, but I can still clean your clock, buster. Just ask the last guy."
"Mmmphm eeeph mmife!"Lisa F., Teresa F., Michelle T., & Nana T., these cakes could be a powerful parenting tool. "Behave, kids, or I'll take you to the bakery again!"

The last one: The Chocolate Chip Mafia sends Cookie Monster's family a strong message.
Oh, these are SOO wrong!!! The M is slightly reminiscent of the kool-aid dude. A very wonky, angry Kool-aid dude.
The soul-less of the yarn dog cakes, the ultra-attentive eyes of the hamburger, and the demented eyes of Sponge Bob all seem to me following me.
Protect me, angry M & M!
Wow. These cakes are amazing! The M&M one is my favorite! All legs! I also like the last one. It looks like cookie monster with a cookie stuck in his mouth.

That top cake cost $23.99? Wow. I really gotta start charging more for my cakes!
So, what is Cookie Monster really trying to say? "STOP STICKING CANDLES IN MY FACE!"
0_o good grief
That last one looks like the opener for "Dateline: When Cookies Attack".
WV: haster. She haster read CakeWrecks every day.
The M&M's right arm is attached to its leg, rather than the leg being attached to the body. Not that I think cupcake cakes are EVER made right, but this one has extra wrong :(
Cookie Monster has a wicked bald spot. Man he is getting old.
A partially melted M&M with a Rockette's legs. Odd. Very odd.

I remember the good old days when we were misbehaving, my mother would threaten to take us to the oprhanage, not the bakery as punishment. I guess times really have changed.
Seriously, the first one really isn't THAT bad. A little odd, but not too wrekcy. The second one, well, yeah, he does look slighly derranged, doens't he?
But the rest?! Oh geez! Those, THOSE are the cakes that I come to CW for! In the last one, it appears that Cookie Monster (I think) has learned what happens when you cross Cosa Nostra
No, cookie monster is saying 'help! my head is melting!"
(maybe his hair caught on fire?)
That is genius the way they combined two candies for the one cake: an M&M body and Circus Peanut legs!
birater: Oops, someone dropped the SpongeBob SquarePants cake in the birater! Maybe nobody will notice...
Wow, I thought the hamburger cake was the worst until I saw the "M&M" (if that is what it's supposed to be!). What is with the super long legs and t-rex arm?
The Sponge Bob cake made my sides hurt.
I find the hamburger with eyes the creepiest. Yikes!
That "Spongebob" cake is so creepy. I think it is the eyes that do it. Can you imagine ANY child wanting this as their birthday cake??
My son would have nightmares!!
Should i even be surprised that the person that BOUGHT the blue cookie-moster-ish cake is serving it right in the supermarket bag it presumably came home in?? It's all about presentation people...
Oh my... those are, umm, disturbing... O_O
I really, really like that the last cake is almost off of it's cakeboard circle, is obviously damaged, is STILL in the shopping bag... AND!... AND!... it is LIT!!!!!!! OMG!!!
Who serves cake that way?!?!?!
I'm just guessing here, but the person serving that cake is probably not your wreckporter...
Either that, or they are a stressed out Momma that, in a rush to finish last minute shopping, 1/2 dropped the cake and just wants to serve the damn thing to get the stupid party over with already.
I'm very willing to accept either answer. :)
Sometimes I would SOOOO love to hear the full back-story on these gems.
That's the Cookie Monster? I thought it was the last guy Mrs M&M got hold of...
It looks like Spongebob is in a straight jacket.
the sponegbob one looks like they dropped acid while watching an episode-yikes!!
Ode To Cake Wrecks.
When I am sad and blue
I think of you.
frosting,gobs of goo.
fondant mysteries.
all them make me love you.
I am so glad you told me that red thing was an M&M. I thought it was a tomato with legs, which was creepy enough. Then I looked closer and saw the M on the hat band and couldn't think why a tomato would start with M. ("Just call me Mateo"?)
my immediate response to that sponge bob cake was that it was supposed to be a cake featuring Eugene Levy AS Sponge Bob. maybe it's the eyebrow/lashes....
I don't know which would haunt me more...the ghost-puppies or the zombieburger.
What happened to cookie monster's forehead?
Or Spongebobs face?
Wow those are pretty amazing.
@Mess Maker...
That does look like Eugene Levy as SpongeBob!
You think he'll get a call when they start casting for a SpongeBob live-action movie?
Just because you jam a cookie into a blue blob, it does NOT make it Cookie Monster!!!!
And can you believe that they are trying to sell those first cakes for $23.99!?!?! Highway wreckory!
oh lord. oh dear lord.
well, i will say this about the cookie monster cake:
anyone with a four year old knows exactly what happened to that missing icing. check the kid's teeth. bet they're blue.
also, i wouldn't be too quick to criticize the poor mama or whomever is serving that sad wreck. i doubt the 4 year old even noticed (or cared) it was still in the bag.
i'm just sayin'.

I... misread the word "clock" at first. D:
The thing to remember when looking at the red M&M guy: the red coloring for M&Ms is made from Carmine (Cochnineal). His skin is made from crushed insects.
Yum!
A) why would a hamburger have eyes?
B) why would they be bloodshot?
I think the Cookie Monster cake is a cautionary tale about cookie addiction. Sort of like those meth commercials. Not even once, kids. Spongebob looks like he's been hittin' the meth himself...
wv: colonse. I wonder what blue frosting does to them....
The SpongeBob cake may give me nightmares. That's horrible.
Always my last stop after surfing the web. You put a smile on my face every day!
"Just call me Mateo"
ROFLOL!!!
Yikes! I need therapy just looking at the photos. I can't imagine the children who received such madness.
The M&M looks like they were trying to make the seductive legs (like they show on the green girl M in the commercials) but WAY worse!
Spongebob is wacky enough on his own, much less wreckified!
And the poor cookie cake. I'd watch who you mess with for torture like that!
All of these make me squeak: "Mommy!"
@Taylor--That's EXACTLY what I thought!! chocolate chip mafia...XD
The real problem isn't terrifying cakes that drive children to the school counselor. The real problem is that CW doesn't have a tour stop in north Atlanta.
We're a very important city, dangit! And we have excellent bakeries!
I totally thought that M&M ccc was Meatwad from Aqua Teen.
Love the apparently high hamburger cake. Or maybe it's hungover?
I cannot decide yet, which part of the first sample is creepier. http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2009/08/bork-bork-bork.html" rel="nofollow">Cannibal cake's evil brother with his bloodshoted eyes or his two undead melting zombie-puppy-sidekicks. With their hollow eyes O_O
But I know for sure they are here to partyyyy!!! Like their dear friends Jason Vorhees, Freddy Krueger, Micheal Myers, this guy with the chainsaw....
My tot just said, "Ewww...it's like poop."
Scared straight for delinquent cupcakes.
OMG! Those made me laugh! So, so, SO wrong! Great post, Jen. Classic wrecks!
wv: atila
"Mommy, why are we going to the bakery?"
"Atila later, dearies..."
that last one. . . . and that sponge bob. ah!
