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? ;)

Love this This + That = WHAT series! Too funny!

I feel the need to use this as my identifying photo across the internet.


I am also unable to decide if I should laugh or cry. It is...

magnificent.

I just want to know who was brave enough to put that bunny bonnet on the sheep who shall not be named.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAmy

That's horrifying, in a morbidly fascinating kind of way.

Checking cakewrecks is part of my daily coffee break, but the last two days this blog has terrified me! Why? Why do these cakes exist? ...why...*shudder*

I don't know if I can ever watch Shaun the Sheep again.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterNicole

Oh Sweet Cadbury Bunnies! I think that thing is going to eat my face off!

(all it needs is a cigarette to be complete!)

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAshley

Cake of the baker, unwillingly given. Talent of the decorator, willingly sacrificed. Cash of the customer, forcibly taken. The Dark Sheep shall rise again.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterzoomom

I THINK it's the teeth (and the eyeballs) that make the sheep look so bad. I know it's the teeth. The fact that my eyes start to water when I look at the eyeballs suggest they might have something to do with it as well.(Just put the picture in paint; it's not nearly as creepy without the teeth.)

And who knew that Lord Voldemort had a sheep nose?

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterMuria

I thought it was quite a good rendition of the sheep from the Pixar short called Boundin'.

Voldemort's pet or Polyjuice Potion gone wrong?

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterMarie

Oh my God. Stifling those hysterical giggles at work was hell. Will. Not. Look. Again. Ugh.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterLy

Don't buy into the hysteria and call it "Ewe Know Who." It's just a sheep. Call it by name -- "Wooldemort."

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterSharyn

Who knew sheep had giant chiclet teeth??!

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterJulie

Methinks this should be served on (Florida) Gov. Scottdemort's Easter table. I wonder if he would recognize himself in it?

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAnna B

O_O *shudder*

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered Commenteremmbeedee

Why, oh why, do people do this? Have they no self respect at all? LOL :)

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterChocoMare

What the bloody hell is that?? The teeth...the teeth will haunt my dreams.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterChuck Baudelaire

It's a face only a mother could love!

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterEla

zoomom WINS!

Zoomom wins.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterSharon

OMG The teeth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am booking an appointment with my dentist NAO!!!!!!!!

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterScifimom

I just barely swallowed a scream. I need a Weasley to feel better.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterJulephenia

Wow, Happy Easter, huh?
Nothing quite says, "Hosannah, Christ has Risen," like a voldemort bunny cake!

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterMary Connealy

Dear lord, that thing looks like it'll turn ME into shishkabob-that is one horrifying cake D:

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered Commentermindy1

The sad part is...I would totally buy that cake as a joke for a friend. Especially if I'd just promised to make an unholy sacrifice in exchange for a big favor.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterDiana

I bet the baker thinks this looks awesome. I'm going to have nightmares over this one.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterToni

Oh, god, my nightmares are going to have nightmares....those eyes, and those TEETH...now I know how Red Riding Hood felt

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterShelli

zoomom and Sharyn for the win!

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterGretchen

On some weird level, I find this one strangely compelling...do I need therapy?

Have you seen the movie 'Black Sheep'?
"An experiment in genetic engineering turns harmless sheep into blood-thirsty killers that terrorize a sprawling New Zealand farm."
It's brilliant!

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterCarolineB

I. Can't. Stop. LAUGHING!! That is one of the funniest cakes you have ever posted! Zoomom's and Shrayn's comments just make it better. :D :D Haha "Wooldemort" *snorts*.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterLucy from Scotland

The bulging blue eyes make me think this might have started out as a Serta sheep.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterjbrecken

That is Voldemortifying.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterMelissa

Arrgggg! I can't decide wether to be saying awww! Cute... In a mutant sheep way. Or, AhhHhhhh! Run from the mutant sheep!

*Rubbing face in frustration*

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterSilverbug12

To quote a fellow poster from a couple days ago, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.... (pantpantpantpantpant).... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!"

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterBADKarma

FENTON! it's Fenton!!!!!

@Muria, you mean, "...look so baaaaad."

@Sharyn, you outdid yourself there! *wiping tears from eyes* That was too funny! *blowing nose* How do you come up with this stuff?

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterzoomom

OK, now that I've got Wooldemort, I have to fill in the rest of the sheepish cast -- Baaaaan Weasley, Hermione Grazer, and Hairy Cutter -- The Boy Who Clipped.

@zoomom -- brilliant

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterSharyn

Oh, that cake is a baaaaadddd rendering of a sheep!
The person who bought this got fleeced!
I want to pull wool over my eyes so I don't see this!
I feel suddenly sheepish for commenting

(EXCELLENT zoomom!!!)

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterMaureen

The horror - the horror!

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterNicole

This Cake == Nightmare Fuel

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered Commentertheblackdog

Love me some Timmy! And the next time my six-yr-old and I watch Harry Potter and he asks me if Voldemort is the bad guy I can say "No son, he's not bad, he's baaa-aaaad."

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAmanda

But, what are those blobs on it's back and leg? Is it growing? Cancerous? About to perform mitosis?

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterMetzgirl

My three-year-old (perhaps correctly) identified this as a "skeleton-rabbit-sheep." Yes, honey, it is.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterJulie

One of the great posts! Zoomom for the WIN!

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterLabgoddess

I've never laughed so much out of sheer terror.

Haha, "sheer."

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterMay

It's a Deathbleater (TM)!

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterRZ

Alternatively, it could be the Gruffalo in a sheep suit. Wearing bunny ears.

I'm scared.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterJoan

The sad thing is, someone put in a lot of work on that. Perhaps if they had used a colour, it would have been a bit less scary looking...

Or not.

March 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAliza

How can people make stuff like that? You would think it would be EASY to make a sheep.
