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? ;)

Does EVERYONE on that show have a tail?!? Remember Jason Alexander's little wagging tail? Jerry's seems a bit harder to hide, though.

“Golden, Ripe, Boneless Bananas, 39 Cents A Pound. " ..... advertising misprint segment on Jay Leno

So, would the Monkey's Uncle be banana bread or banana cream pie?

Poor monkey.

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterGayle Choo

Seinfeld is a barrel of monkeys...I mean laughs...

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterCarolyn Dube

uuummmm..before I scrolled down to the Jerry face, I was trying to figure out if it was going to be about the raised monkey tail and possible bathroom humor...oh, but now I see the joke....

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJanet

The best part about the series was when the group went to jail.

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterEmmie

Too funny!

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMy name is Michelle.

What are the two beigey bits in the middle? Is it supposed to be a baboon style butt? And if so, why is it visible from the front?

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterAshley

That's fantastic! Can't wait to show my bf who still thinks seinfeld is the greatest show ever!

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterKayleen

Proof of evolution!

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterLessa

Hey Jen! Love your blogs... always funny! I try to look for cake wrecks near me but I guess my bakers are just too boring!

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterCarmen

Calendar, book, pins, whatever! I love it all!!!!!

Are they related?

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMelissa

OOOOO.....I'd love to get a copy of your book!

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterLilKim

I'm still attempting to discern why there are two monkey photos in my post, and why you reference Seinfeld.

:-D

I'd love a book, if only to teach my granddaughter how NOT to decorate cake. In 5 years. She's too young to read this blog yet. IN the meantime, I'd get some really good laughs just to keep my health. Laughter being the best medicine of course, and add Cake... TOTAL awesomeness.

I have seen the new calendar at Borders. It is pretty neat and I like the different format. I would love a free one.

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered Commentertnw75

I went I get to eat cake while I read the blog! Thankfully this one is not wrecky.

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterDarling One

Man-headed comedian monkeys!!!

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJonna Olson

That is one heck on an ugly cake.

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterAmanda

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterKaaren

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJenny

Haha, I love that monkey and his Seinfeld face! I would totally LOVE a calendar!

The resemblance is uncanny...

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterAmy

Potassium for the win!

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered Commenterkirpet

The resemblance is uncanny.

WV typedd: that would have been so much funnier on the pasties post

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterChristine

The ears and hands look like bananas as well. Weird.

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterPamela Joy

Before the pic of Jerry loaded I was certain you were going to comment on the monkey's masculinity. Either way, pretty funny!

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterCorinne

or as friends of mine are fond of saying, "I'm not saying, I'm just saying..."

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterLaura P.

I'm not understanding the limbs on that monkey.

Is the hand holding the banana in the middle of his arm? Is that other arm (or leg?) attached to his tail? I'm not even going to go near the appendages in the middle...

Yikes. Bananas.

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterErin the cake

Oh dear. So many reasons why I never really liked Seinfed. I've made my peace with Kramer, though.

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMiss Megan

That is one very scary cake.

*shudder*

I already have a copy of your book - not all fancy and autographed and everything though... but I'd love a wall calender :) I can mark prime pumpkin carving time on it! ;)

November 5, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterAnnette
