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? ;)
September 3, 2008 I rather like it.
Be sure to check out Rather Good for more general hilarity.
Oh, and Josh, one question: how would one go about getting one's spouse to STOP WHISTLING THIS &%@!$ TUNE?!? That is, if one had such a whistling spouse. You know, like, in theory.

I guess my question is did they actually write the songs, then put videos to them? Or did someone else just as insane write them?
Good enough for a giggle first thing in the morning!
Thanks for the laugh
I love RatherGood. My poor spouse will have to endure me whistling this tune for a good long while, I suspect. He just got over me singing the RatherGood "we love the moon" for the last three years...
That's hysterical but the baby with the teeth is creeping me out!
I'm going back to bed. Maybe if I sleep long enough I will forget I saw that!
I've found that slaps upside the head help with the spouse whistling problem. If that doesn't work there's always threatening to delete his saved Tivo / DVR stuff.
OH YAY! Someone else who likes Rather Good! YAY!!
Rather good...I agree! Our whole house is rockin' out...our preschooler and toddler think the cake song is the best thing since, well...cake!
amazing! i cant stop giggling. that song is going to be stuck in my head all day. heehee.
Whaddya know! I like cake too!! Even if I am a bit woozy from motion-sickness inducing kitty...
Off to decorate "Dad's" brthdae "cake"!!
OK, my 2 and 5 year old were jamming out to the song.... to the point where my 2 year old crashed and hit her head. Lying on the floor she uttered... "Mo' cake-cake". If that isn't a testament, I know not what would be! Thanks for the hiliarious link... we completely appreciated it! I have linked your blog to my own, and it is a source of humor to me every day!

Is it just me or does that sound like The Wiggles? (And count your blessings if you haven't been exposed to that unique brand of torture.)
Lilli,
He writes and animates his own stuff. If you get a chance, check out some music from his band "7 Seconds of Love" -- I have a couple of their songs on my iPod, and he's quite good.
i do think that video could cause a seizure.... have mercy
See... what creeps me out is the cats with lips doing harmony in the background... Ewww. But definitely good first thing in the morning!
The creepiest part is the singing baby covered in chocolate.
Seizure inducing is about right...I was getting really dizzy watching it. Yikes, but hilarious.
I suddenly feel dizzy, yet suprisingly hungry for cake.
OK, I've had some coffee... yogurt... cereal...
Just trying to figure out what was laced with acid this morning! YIKES!
Pretty funny. My kids sure like it!!
There's quite a lot of cake in here too:

I love Rather Good. They had these ads out for Quizno's Subs a while back. If you think the cake tune is addictive... my friends and I were running around for WEEKS singing "WE LIKE THE SUBS!!!"
ugh. Not my taste.
Sorry, but this was rather terrible. Easily the worst post on this otherwise great blog.
Um, unfortunately, I'M the whistling spouse in this marriage, so now my husband shall be dammed forever. I guess he'll just be happy it's no longer Wicked and Chicago tunes....
I only made it through 32 seconds before I got motion sickness and had to turn it off.
The song is cute, though.
ugh, that was horrible.
and it's already in my head after just one viewing.
Okay, I just got referred here by another blog and you are now on my ever-increasing reader list. Love your blog!
Too funny, and thank you for now having that song stuck in my head for the day!!
Oh my gosh I almost wet my pants.. that was too funny and utterly scary all at the same time :)
From the minds that brought you "The Yellow Submarine", evidently.
Awesome.
I wanted to let you know that I came across your blog because you're on the "notable blog list" on Blogger. Now I'm addicted!
I LOVE that song and I LOVE that site. I was wondering whether to send it in - now it appears I don't have to
It is a very catchy song, and is available on iTunes ^^
That's hilarious...in an oddly disturbing way, LOL!
OMG! That was great ~ in a weird kind of way, of course. Loved the background singers with the big red lips. Now I can't get that song out of my brain. aaaaaIIIIIeeeeee!
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(loud scream)
OK I can listen to it but I should deffinately not have watched it since already feel nauseas.UGH
Now that my husband has been diagnosed with Celiac Disease, our cakes ARE made of rice. hmmmmm...
Oh, I think I'm going to be nauseous. Yikes...
haha, fair question, it is insanely catchy, as much as that video annoys me....
Gimme some cake!
BWAHAHAA!
who in the world comes up with these things?
anywho, cute, and gosh darn catchy!
Very entertaining Good for a few laughts.
I think you've found your theme song for this blog!
I need to go take a motion sickness pill now.
Did that come from the creators of those Quizno's ads a few years back?
We're RatherGood fans from way back, but our problem isn't whistling. It's the fact that we can't get our preschoolers to stop singing the "Beer Beer Beer" song. We try to rephrase it as other things "Cheese Cheese Cheese," etc. We'll have to try "Cake Cake Cake."
And people say that television is leading to the degradation of our society and the pollution of the minds of our youth. No; no, I say. It is Videos Like This One that are frying our brain cells one by one.
Does anyone remember Toonce the Cat? Yeah I think this is Toonce's long lost cousin, Cake Kitty.
hilarity ensues...
Great, now I have to go to bed with that song in my head. Love the Dalek cake at the beginning, though!
I just went thru all your cake wrecks...BLOODY HILARIOUS! I can see why you made the Blogs of Note.
