"And in the Mornin', I'm Making WAFFLES."
March 3, 2009 Today's Wreck is so unrecognizable I figured I better give you as many clues as possible before showing it to you.
Clue #1: He's big, green, and lives in a swamp.
Clue #2: He's a cartoon ogre.
Clue #3: His name is Shrek.
Clue #4: He looks like this:
Ok, have you guessed who it is yet? Here comes the Wreck! (Choo choo!)
AAAAAUUUGGGHHH!!! Ahem.
Ok, so it's shiny, toothy, and has a homicidal glint in its dead, dead eyes.
On the other hand, now we know what would happen if the Incredible Hulk and Sloth from the Goonies ever had a love child. Right, Michelle Y.?

It's actually a rather good interpretation of the original Shrek from the book written by William Steig.
Google "shrek steig" to make your own comparison.
Oh. My. Dear. LORD.
I can't believe how horribly wrong that cake went!! It’s awesome!
He slimed me.
Here's my homemade Shrek Wrek:

Even worse, I'm afraid that "mud" look to the frosting was deliberate. At least I wasn't being paid for my lapse in judgement!
Wow... this blog is so amazing! I don't really read blogs regularly, but this is just too hysterical to resist. I even blogged about it on my own site! (www.utterrandom.blogspot.com) Keep up the good, wrecky work!
That wasn't even a college try there...horrible!

are you sure it's not the toxic avenger?
Aww, come on! SCHWRECK!
I can't get over how shiny the Shwreck is. Is he actually made of molded plastic?
i never thought Shrek could look sooo scary!
Wonder how much those parents have spent on therapy so far...
I don't know, maybe the Wrecker is just extremely literate and decided to devote this cake to the original book by William Steig. It looks a lot like the http://www.thejewishmuseum.org/core/uploaded/pages/celebsteigshrek300_copy.jpg" REL="nofollow">original Shrek. Or maybe I'm just giving the Wrecker far too much credit...
You keep upping the ante on badness! Where will it end? The best still is the "We Love Freymot..."
I'll have to go bake something awful now.
Oh Wow! That is really awful!!!
OMG the cake is sooo bad, but your captions are so priceless!!! Thanks for the laugh

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Mommy, make it go away! Thank you for the humor and build-up to soften the blow, because I could not have handled seeing the cake straight off w/o any warning. O_o *shuddertwitch* My vote is for Steig's Shreck, because that is *not* Movie!Shrek.
Wow! Is that even edible!?
It appears to have been varnished!
HAHA! I have to assume that this decorator is either grossly untalented, or has never seen a picture of Shrek.
I am usually just a lurker but had to comment. that is so BAD! Yikes.
I love your blog, keep up the great work - it puts a smile on my face all the time =)
I agree with the poster that said it looked more like William Steig's original illustrations. I thought the same thing when I first looked at it. He was pretty ugly.
Wow, that doesn't even compare. Poor Shrek...
AAAAHHH!!!! I love Shrek 2 as no adult should! I quote this line every weekend when I make waffles! I think I need serious help, but this cake may just scare it out of me!!! :)
☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺
IT LOOKS LIKE SMIEGEL FROM LORD OF THE RINGS ONLY IN GREEN~~~ AHHH i want one???? NOT!!!!!!
☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺
We don't know. The cake could be right on, if the instructions were "A Shrek cake, but I want it to look really Ogre-y."
Well, if they were ugly ogre then they got it!!!
My son would be hard-pressed to identify this shiny, green monstrosity...and he's a hard-core Shrek fan! It looks like shaped puss. Mmmm, puss cake...
So what exactly is the cake supposed to be??? Your clues, though funny, weren't helpful enough for me to decipher what the green slime is supposed to be.
Yikes! that's S-C-A-R-Y!!!
Hey, well, you know, you're always prettier, handsomer, taller and wittier when they make a movie of you.
WV: picidis -- the director said, picidis guy to play the ogre.
No. Just no. That is NOT Shrek. No.
That's insane. Someone take the airbrush away NOW!
I feel sorry for the kid who had it for their birthday cake! SCARY!
I just love to carefully, slowly, scroll down the page, savoring your commentary that primes me for the reveal of the latest wreck. You are a genius.
Word Ver = cookescr, the sound a customer makes when they see the wreck they have just paid too much money for
I.....um.....
Okay, so, bottom line it looks like a frog and a demeon mixed with frosting.
When there's somethin' gross, at the birthday bash, who you gonna call?
Cakebusters!
That cake isn't Shrek. It's Mr. Yuk's brother.

Because I think that cake could make someone SICK, SICK, SICK!!
Great commentary, as always! :)
He looks kind of like a green Gollum...I can just hear it whispering, "Precioussssss..."
Or something along those lines. xD
Aja
I always expect to see something totally WRONG when I scroll down for the wreck, but this one made my jaw drop.
Is this the way Shrek looks in the morning before he showers and shaves?
That cake is so horrifying that it's hilarious!
If it was a bit more brown it would look like Sid from the Ice Age movies.
OMG!! LOL!!! Do these wreckerators not believe in cake transfers? I would have demanded an apology along with my refund!
I'm laughing, but I probably ought not...it's really quite disturbing. I'm super grateful for the hints, because I just don't see Shrek in that wreck AT ALL.
What's funny is that it doesn't look like Shrek OR a cake. It looks like...a scary green jello...something...gone awry.
This one could've gone under yesterday's post of traumatizing the children too...
Looks like an alt I played in EQ a dozen years ago.
whats the meaning of this??
"BRING me the HEAD of the CREATURE from the BLACK LAGOON!
On a PLATTER!!
Or your firstborn shall DIE!!!
And don't forget to use a doily!!!!
Now, GO--ChopChop! You have until the stroke of midnight!"
(...mission accomplished?)
>^??^<
OMG I don't even know what to say about that! That's just baaaad.
It looks like smegal D:.
kinda looks like a house elf from HP...
Oh god, it's a Shrek Wreck!
