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? ;)

Thanks to Liz T., who says this is why you never order Valentine cookies from a baker who's recently been dumped. (True story.)

Actually, that would have gone over really well at the Black Valentine's Day parties I threw all through college. With a prize for the person who got the "special" cookie.
Kaisee
Hahahahaha! I would buy that cookie! Love it!
I literally LOL-ed.
Awesome.
Love it!
LMAO About .5 seconds. I should work on getting my mind up to the gutter so that I can then work on getting it out.
Awesome!
My son loves collecting figures that come in a you-never-know-what-you'll-get-next series. Doesn't matter much what they are, he loves them all. One year I nabbed a box from the gift shop at the art museum and dropped it in his Christmas stocking. He excitedly tore open the box on Christmas morning to find a conversation heart printed with "I HATE YOU".
He looked at me in bewilderment, saying "Santa hates me?" I felt really bad, but I just couldn't stop laughing!
As a proud representative of "hoe bags" everywhere, I am tremendously insulted by this post. Why shouldn't we have our own cookies, you Valentine grinches?
hi-freakin'-larious as always :)
I have never read the comments before, but they had me laughing as much as the post! Cake Wreckies are obviously awesome.
Erika
Wait, does that mean that TEXT ME is an *acceptable* valentine's message?
I guess that baker really had his cookies frosted by his ex.
Slaps knee.
Hehe, that's great! Hoe bag.
Honestly, at first wondering if it had to do with those "Kiss" ones, that kinda reminded me of "KISS" the band. Then I found the really special one ;)
Haha, this is my cousin's favourite saying. Had to send her a link. ROFL.

Oh nice! Well, I guess we know how he/she felt about being dumped?
I totally thought that said "Hog Bag" until I looked again. I was very confused.
Oh Karen Famines, I'm so glad I wasn't the only one to see hog bag! Only after reading the comments did I realize t said hoe. My excuse : wasn't wearing my glasses!
YAY!! my post!!!
For the record, my cousin is an AWESOME baker/cake maker :)
HAHAHAHAHAHHAA!!! It took me forever to see it though LOL
And at first I was appalled that someone said they were going to have their 6 year old try to spot it, but then I saw the commenters name and got the joke. :) Hopefully we won't have to head into the Epcot bunker for that one though :)
I thought that kind of "ho" was spelled without the "e"....
hahaha!! love it!
The way they spelled it, it's really just a bag of garden hoes. Probably not what they intended.
Found it...
Uh, Gary at 12:41 I think you meant "Hug Me". Although "Huge Me" could likely be found in the same box as "Nice T*ts" and "Hoe Bag".
Having a weird dyslexic moment when buying my daughter's valentine cards three weeks ago, I read "F****ed Valentines to punch out an a**hole", not "Flocked Valentines to punch out and assemble". We are still laughing.
Hahahahahaha!!! Love it!
actually, I think the concept is adorable (conversation heart cookies) and the work is nice, too.
Kinda makes me want to make some of my own (with my own messages...like FUZZ BUTT for the dog)
I want to hear the back story on that cookie, though
(by the way, Jenn, the WV never comes up when I first post...I have to hit submit, then it reloads and THEN I can read the word.)
It took me a full ten seconds to find it; I am so ashamed. And now can't stop giggling...
Awesome.
You know this is an actual product: Dirty Conversation Hearts

Maybe it's the Canadian in me, but I thought it was a misspelling of
HOSE BAG.
Either way, it's very funny.
hahahahhahaa... ahhhh.. hahahahahhaahhaaaaaaa... wipes tear from eye... thank you...
Hilarious!
Oh my goodness, that is hilarious!
Not only was that cookie rude to the customer, they couldn't even spell it right.
Still, look wise they actually were pretty nice. Too bad the designer had to be mean.
I kept reading (Luv) Twu Luv, (As in the Princess Bride), and was so distracted by that, that I almost missed the surprise cookie!
Supermommy at 4:54, you don't own the cakewrecks calendar, do you? The "huge me" heart cake was on the February month.
Amazing!
Supermommy, I'm pretty sure Gary meant exactly what he said
http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2010/02/tmi-valentines.html" rel="nofollow">Huge Me
I saw hog bag for a second before it resolved into hoe bag. Either way though, its hilarious!
HIGH-LAR-IOUS!
Hoe-bo bags! I love them! They hold so much!
What? That's not what it means?
And, incredibly, s/he misspelled "ho"! Unless it's referring to gardening. Somehow, I don't think so.
That is so wrong, but so funny at the same time XD
Anonymous @ 9:33 AM I do believe I love you
Holy cow! That baker must have been having a pretty bad day!
Olivia
Lol!! Hoe bag?? Can't they even spell that right? No apparently they want to insult someone by calling them a garden tool. Cannot stop laughing.
This is very funny!
it took 1 .3 seconds...ove it long time!
Reminds me of this epic book...
http://loneliestho.com/index.html" rel="nofollow">The Loneliest Ho in the World: Christmas isn't Christmas without Ho's!
I saw it at a Christmas market in the childrens book section. Santa has lost one of his Hos and sets out to help it. Needless to say we were knotting ourselves laughing.
Even after click-to-enlarge, I keep seeing 'HOG BAG'. Perhaps it's just as well -- it wouldn't be real nice to be called a 'hog bag', either, even if one knew what it meant (which one doesn't). The wreckerator just wanted to see if anyone was paying attention. Yeah, that's the ticket!
When did 'Text Me' become a Valentine's wish? I suppose there is no reason why Valentine's day should be exempt from the rush to make all holidays as superficial as possible, though. Maybe we should just have National Let's Eat Cake day several times a year. Which isn't a bad idea, come to think of it...
Best Valentine's Day wallpaper ever! >:}
