Thanks to Anony M., Jennifer M., Matt M., Katie T., Maggie P., Sally N., Tracie T., Jennalee, & Lauren L. for the excuse to use John's favorite post title again.
Note from john: Someone just told me they were done with Cake Wrecks because Jen didn't give you guys the answer in the comments in a timely manner. Honestly, we thought it was fun seeing your guesses. Well, as far as we know, it's the Mad Men logo and a teapot. Unless we're wrong. Merry Christmas!

I saw a gray whale in a Santa hat and a Cinderella carriage with no wheels.
A moorhen - it has the right colourings, if not body proportions! - and the teapot from Disney's Beauty and the Beast.
I agree with most everyone about the second one.. a teapot. But the first one... well you'd have to have balls to get away with that one. Canon balls, that is. I think it's a cannon firing.
@Terri M. Oh my gosh, I think you're right (as were many after you). I had to google the Mad Men logo but now I agree that is totally what the decorator was going for...with a birthday theme.
Man, and I really wanted to be right with my penguin guess.
First one: dead seal wearing a party hat.
Second: teapot! (and I did figure that out before reading the comments)
Luger and a teapot?
And why does the baseball glove have fingernails? Eww
Also thought the first bonus was a black duck, but now I agree it's the Mad Men logo with a birthday theme. Teapot for the second, although a crazy Barbie dress would also work.
By George, I think Susan has it! And she's correct, it's simply horrifying.
Now give that girl her sprinkles!
No no and NO wtf is wrong with these bakers? D:
First one is a seal wearing a party hat.
Second one is, obviously, a teapot.
First is a cigar. The second I thought was Cinderella's coach, but now agree that it's a teapot
That last one reminds me: I really need to buy a new toilet seat cover.
I vote Gru silhouette with birthday hat(tip your head). And carriage.
1 cannon
2 teapot
The first is definitely the Mad Men logo with Don Draper. The color scheme of "Happy Birthday" is the main clue. But I originally thought it was a whale with the party hat on the spout of water.
The very first one is an Irish Artichoke, of course.
The second to last one - I think it's a whale with a party hat on.
And I'm agreeing with those who think the last one is a teapot.
Why do wreckerators insist on trying to make things using cupcakes?! Has one EVER turned out the way is was intended?!
A dead body and a teapot?
I knew that first one looked familiar! Now that everyone has said Mad Men logo I can see the tiny cigarette...
It's a cute idea, for sure, just poorly executed.
I think the first one is a stapler, and the second one has to be a teapot. Unless of course it's Cinderella's carriage.
First quiz answer:
A whale with a bleeding growth.
Second quiz answer:
Petri dish with abundant growth and contrast stain.
*Puts apple on teachers desk and winks*
A pot pipe for number 1. Tea pot for number 2.
The first one is definitely a mummy poking its head up out of its sarcophagus, getting ready to rise from the dead. I'm a little confused because the headwear is shaped like the crown of Upper Egypt, but is red like the crown of Lower Egypt.
The second one looks like a sugar bowl. It seems to be a fancy china object, but it has two handles (sort of) & no spout.
Oh great, now I have "I'm a Little Teapot" stuck in my head.
Corspe and tea pot ???
a duck and a teapot
Why does a baseball glove have fingernails?
For the pop quiz, for some reason the first one makes me think of the MadMen logo, but why it's lying down and wearing a Santa hat is beyond me.
For the second, while most people are insisting it's a teapot, I think it's a very fancy SOS signal. For a princess in distress. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
I realize the first one, according to so many commenters, may be allegedly the Mad Men logo, but to me it immediately looked like a mummy, with its head slightly raised, wearing a Santa hat. Why, I have no idea. And yes, the second is definitely a teapot -- but honestly, for regular Wreckreaders, that's almost *too* easy! :)
I see a cannon as the first one, not a duck.
Second is a teapot.
1. Mummy in a gnome hat?
2. Tea pot, probably.
The first, a gnome, leaning over the edge of the world, wondering why he's so alone on his birthday.
The second, she tried so hard to cover up that massive pimple with grandma's tea cozy with the lovely flowers, but she wasn't fooling anyone.
I think the first one is a golf club and flag from the hole.
The second I'm seriously debating between princess carriage and teapot.
Was I the only one who thought the first one was a rattlesnake? The "party hat" was the rattle and the "cigarette" was the face area, with a certain lack of detail. A bit thick because he was still digesting.
I'm gonna go with stretch-limo-duck and a sugar bowl (I swear the handly things look like weird hair though)
The first is either a loon OR a black swan, and the second is clearly teapot.
1. Blood-sucking leech complete with blood.
2. Teapot
The first one is Mad Men! And for the second, no idea...
Shamu the whale in a holiday hat
Princess carriage
Shamu the whale in a holiday hat
Princess carriage
I'm thinking a stylish slug wearing a red party hat, and a teapot
The first is a foot in a black shoe. It's all that's left of a guy in business attire who was crossing a busy road when he was flattened by a runaway semi-truck. You can see the bloody stump. Yup. I'm going with that.
Last one is a princess tea pot -- either due to a lack of coffee, or because of it, I'm making out something that looks like a little crown under the cellophane, so I'm going with teapot and a lid that's a princess's head. Because nothing says "party" like a body-less princess.
That last one reminds me: I really do need to buy a new toilet-seat cover. :p
I'll go with either a duck or the Mad Men logo on the first one and a funky looking teapot for the last one.
I was also curious why the baseball mitt has fingernails??? But then @sending took us all in a whole different direction! O.O
Remember I told you guys we were having a birthday party for my youngest last weekend? Well, the cake was all kinds of wrecky. When the bakery calls you 2 hours before you're supposed to pick up your cake and tells you they can't do the design you chose, well, wrecky-ness is almost guaranteed!
I see a bunny with a party hat and, at first glance, a princess carriage, but with a second look I see how everyone else got tea pot. That thing at the top of the tea pot looked vaguely human to me at first.
This is like the Rorschach inkblots of cakes.
Aurther: AAAA DUCK!
The second one is trying to be a little teapot short and stout. One that got sat on by an elephant......
I'm going to say the first one is a pipe, and the second one is a princess carriage.
Hmmm. . . . let's see. . . . pretty sure no. 2 was supposed to be a teapot. But no. 1?
1) A whale with a clown surfing on top.
2) A submarine about to launch a red-pointed torpedo, looking for Red October.
3) A male organ recovering from syphillys? Or another STD?
About that bus: My great niece came to visit this summer. She was 20 months old at the time. She drew better busses with her chalk on the sidewalk than this monstrosity here. And yes, second the motion for platypus.
1. You got me.
2. Cinderella's carriage?
The first one's Darth Vader waking up from a nap, isn't it?
I figured the first bonus quiz one to be a drag race car as well @Shirley Fowley, but then after reading all the comments I googled "Mad Men Logo Cake" and low and behold, a cake came up that looks eerily similar to the CW version, only it was...well it just...okay it DIDN'T belong HERE...unlike the one shown here.
Agree, bonus #2 is a teapot...that you'd never want to brew tea in because you'd never be able to pour it into a cup....
Have a nice day y'all....
Whale and violin.
