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? ;)

Sunday Sweets Celebrates Kids' Movies

Anyone else out there addicted to kids' movies? 'Cuz I admit it: I love 'em. Especially since they keep making so many amazing ones.

Besides, how can you NOT love Baymax?

(By Catherine's Cakery)

Seeing Big Hero 6 in the theater was a milestone for me, since I'd been avoiding theaters for years on account of my panic disorder. But I went to that movie, loved it, and didn't panic. So in his way, Baymax the Healthcare Robot helped me, too.

Gosh, that got sappy fast, huh? Sorry.

ONWARD!

 

To quote a certain Despicable soundtrack: this cake makes me "Happpyyyyy!"

(By Cakes By Carol)

IT'S SO FLUFFY!!

 

Sure, there are eleventy billion Frozen cakes out there, but check this out:

(By Carmen's Art Cakes)

It's based on the new short, Frozen Fever! Which I still haven't seen yet. I... need to fix that.

 

A fantastic plane from Planes:

(By Haute Sweets by Hiromi)

Sometimes - like when I'm looking at that propeller - I have to remind myself we're looking at cake.

 

Another movie that had me dancing in my seat:

(By Sogni de Zucchero)

Rio!
The sculpting on those figs is blowing me away.

 

Anyone remember The Gruffalo?

(By Fat Cakes Design)

He's from a kids' book-turned-animated-short, so that's one more for my to-watch list.

 

Next, the movie with my second-favorite Batman*:

(By Bake-a-boo Cakes)

LEGO Batman.

Although I'm also loving Unikitty up there!

[*Second favorite, because Michael Keaton foreverrrrr.]

 

Technically not a kids' movie, but who doesn't turn into a big kid over baby Groot from Guardians?

(By Cinnamon Square)

NOBODY, that's who.

 

A few months ago John and I finally watched Book of Life, and WOW. So good.

Just like this cake!

(By Little Cherry Cake Co)

 

And check out this gravity-defying Box Troll:

(By Little Cake Shop)

The sense of motion here is incredible; you expect to blink and see him flat on the pavement!

 

And finally, and most squee-worthy, BABY TOOTHLESS:

(By Fernanda Abarca)

I'd very much like to train THIS dragon, pretty please. (The little tongue! ACK! So cute.)

 

Happy Sunday, everyone!

I love that Olaf is holding (and eating!) A teeny tiny layer cake! Is that a real cake or just plastic? Please please please be real!!!!

1) So cuuuuute...

2) The fact that you wrote 'Anyone remember the Gruffalo?' proves you are not British, because you CANNOT GET AWAY from it here. I've been teaching young 'uns for over 12 years and the mere sight of it makes me twitch now.

3) So glad you saw 'The Book of Life'! It's awesome! Everyone should see it! Yesterday!

Wait, the Lego cake is for Zac? Am I the only one hearing the "Lego Maniac" jingle right now?

Check Netflix for the frozen fever.. it’s in an animated shorts movie with a bunch of shorts. LOVE LOVE LOVE baby Toothless.. and baby Groot.

I think the Gruffalo is actually the Gruffalo's Child (little girl gruffalo goes on adventure to find legendary big bad mouse)

March 5, 2018 | Unregistered CommenterSarah C

I am Groot.
