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? ;)

GREAT SCOTT! (Or Is It Peter?)

For today's wrecky giggles, minions... WE HAVE TO GO BACK.

"BACK" ...to the Easter.

 

Back when Vicky asked for a chocolate egg with a dog's paw on it.

Heavy.

 

Back when Leslie asked for a simple "He Has Risen."

"Rizind?"

 

 

And most importantly, back to the moment before this candy mold was created:

 

...so we can have a serious discussion.

 

Thanks to Christine E., Vicky C., Leslie S., & Katie C. for rooting for Cake Wrecks.

Was the egg supposed to look like the dog had stepped on it, or was the egg for the dog? I thought dogs weren't supposed to eat chocolate. Vicky's dog would have a terrible tummy ache if it ate that.

He has Rizind is a line from the reworked version of the song "What'd I Miss" which is to be featured in Lin-Manuel Miranda's next show, "Jesus, the Musical." Now excuse me while I go enter the lottery for Hamilton tickets.

Before the egg picture loaded, I imagined three different interpretations:

1. The probable intended one: A paw print shape on the egg.
2. A dog resting his paw on the egg.
3. A paw protruding from the egg, as if it were the egg's appendage.

After all these years, I should have realized the most obvious interpretation: Just write it on.

Y'all are hogs!!! But that last one there (on the cupcake) looks like one happy little wascally wabbit....! =^o.O^=

What's sad is that as a recovering Lutheran, I saw rizind and immediately thought, "He has rizin indeed, alleluia!" So maybe the baker was trying to shorten risen indeed into one smooth word? No? okay...

That puts a whole new slant on the phrase 'breeding like rabbits'...

Oh, wow! That chocolate bunny looks...happy, happy, happy!

Where we're going we don't need common sense....or decency :P

Haha this one made me laugh, espacially the gifs. Great stuff as usual, keep it up!

"Oh, Mr. Thumper.... It's SOOOOOOO BIIIIIIG!!!!"

I can never unsee that. I am triggered. The voices say they are, too.

April 7, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterBADKarma

I'm sure that's meant to be a carrot. And now I have the worst idea about Schnuffel.

"...and so, even though the only reason for his surgical 'male enhancement' had been to improve his social life, Thumper could never approach a lady bunny again, because they all fled in terror the instant they saw him coming (pardon the expression) around the corner. The End."

Here comes Peter Cottontail!

I never realized Peter Rabbit had such large ... hands.

April 7, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterSuBee

I was going to leave some witty comment about the rabbit but Colin M.'s comment made me laugh so hard I choked on my drink, which ended up all over my keyboard, so now I'll be spending the evening with a damp washcloth and grumbling dirty words under my breath while I try to clean it but it's probably hopeless because this is not the first time I've had this happen while reading Cake Wrecks and hoo boy this sentence just won't quit.

April 7, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterDegera

Maybe he has resigned?

@colin M wins

new meaning to "lucky rabbit's foot"

April 7, 2016 | Unregistered Commentermel

Oh my - Peter was certainly um...happy. Yet another fun collection!

April 7, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterKyle

My hubby nearly choked on the hot dog he was eating when he saw the rabbit holding that "carrot" lol. He said they could have at least colored that thing orange but somehow that made me laugh even harder lol.

@ JMixx, I was already laughing when I got to your post, but you took it over the top into crying...in a good way. Thanks, I needed that!

Sorry, gotta talk about the "He Is RizInd" cake. What in heck kind of tip does that baker used to make those weird spherical roses? And what's with the silly string outside of the otherwise somewhat normal border?
