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? ;)

This Tuesday Isn't Fat, It's Fluffy

Egads, you guys, I almost forgot today was Mardi Gras!!

Thank goodness the wreckerators out there have given us so many helpful reminders. You know, like all the beads:

("The better to hide our wrecks with, my dear!")

 

...and the toxic mold rings:

(Listen closely, and you can actually hear the dough screaming.)

 

Not to mention the plethora of choking hazards:

 

...the terrifying non-sequiturs:

(Give it up, Lady Cassandra - we know it's you!)

 

...and, of course, the dessert Mardi Gras is most famous for:

The colossal caramel apple pie.

Topped with a tiny plastic Baby Jesus.

Giving you the finger.

 

And, hey, if that doesn't say "Happy Marti Gras !", then this cake does:

So there.

 

Many Mardi Gras thanks to Naomi S., Janet, Mike R., Laurie E., Debbi P., & Andrew G., who get ALL the beads - once they flash me their... pearly whites.

And by "pearly whites"I mean "boobs." You, too, fellas!

Funny!

The baby Jesus is holding a bottle. It just represents Jesus, but the babies in the cakes are just cheap plastic babies. We have one like that from a previous Mardi Gras cake and the bottle is flesh colored just like the baby, so it's cheap as the bottle isn't even colored.

"Caramel Flippin' Jesus" would be an excellent name for a rock bank!

I love the (mini) balls of the first baker- all the beads the better to hide our warning label with, my dear.
