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? ;)

How Bizarre

One of my high school teachers told us to always ask why with our writing.

Why does this character do what she does?
Why is this political issue so divisive?
Why are poop jokes so darn funny?

Well I may not have answers today, minions, but by golly, I'm going to ask the hard-hitting questions.

Why?

 

Why?

 

WHY????

 

When you love fresh summer corn SO MUCH...

...you're compelled to eat a giant cookie covered in frosting.

 

Not since Lost have I so intently pondered the significance of a random set of numbers:

That smug "WOW!" is just sitting there, mocking me.
What am I missing?!
What does it meeeeeannnnn?

 

"So what does Larry like?"

"I dunno, he, um, wears suspenders?"

Or maybe Larry likes a pair of red spotlights pointed heavenward on the horizon of a moonlit ocean view.

'Cuz Larry is deep like that, you guys.

 

But no, really.

WHY?

 

Thanks to Caroline P., Suzi B., Jess M., Rachel N., Rose D., Taylor C., Katy, & Jenn B., who I thought would never ask. Which, you know, is why I did.

 

P.S. -

END BURGER AND HOT DOG SEGREGATION NOW

WHAT IS THIS INJUSTICE?!
Oh wait, I see a hot dog on the burger side.

Never mind.

Apparently 7957985 is the product of three prime numbers: 5 x 7 x 227371 = 7957985. So I surmise that the cake belongs to a young maths prodigy who loves prime numbers. And Sesame Street. And pink. Probably her favourite character is the Count. (But the bakery only had Big Bird & Elmo). The big question is, is she turning 5, 7 or 227371? (227371 days is just shy of 26 years, so perhaps she's having her birthday a few days early?)

Word of warning - don't eat the sushi if it is on a cake. Who knows how long it has been sitting at room temperature! And especially don't eat something that is supposed to look like sushi on a cake.

Maybe it was Larry King's birthday? He wears red suspenders with his jeans. And everything else. Lol!

With all the weirdness and unanswered questions in this post, the last cake is my favorite and made me laugh pretty hard (I think the caption contributed to the overall hilarity). Is it supposed to be a hamburger graveyard? The things people come up with...

The second-to -last cake is an "I'm sorry you were so upset that I didn't like the necklace you gave me for my 50th birthday that you stabbed yourself in the duodenum and the temporal lobe" cake.

I thought the 5th one down was a phone number too. Maybe the kid got their first phone for their birthday. If you put the number on the cake you could distribute to family and friends easily. Just tell everyone to put it in their phones, when you bring the cake out.
