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? ;)

Hello, and thank you for visiting Cake Wrecks, where all your half-baked hopes for humanity are soundly thrashed on a daily basis.

__ Travel
__ Plague
__ Boot to the head
__ ROUSes
 X  John's birthday

Please take this opportunity to entertain yourself by:

- Correcting this cake:

{Bonus points for music puns.}

 

- Naming this Muppet character:

Complete with catch phrase.

 

- Counting the Skittles:

Then the gummi worms.
Then the panda cookies.
Then the Fruit Chews and gum drops and stuffed giraffe hang tags).

 

- Flagging this flower cake on Facebook for nudity:

IT'S SO NAKED

 

- Writing a haiku to explain Batman's expression:

(Points subtracted if you use the Squatty Potty haiku. Because yes, WE KNOW THAT ONE.)

 

- Leaving a colorful birthday message after the beep.

*beeeeeeeeep*

1. Well this would be the Jaws theme but the shark ate important notes.

2. One of the Muppetphones finally snapped and killed Marvin Suggs. You can just see the bloodlust in his eyes!

3. The Rainbow Moose now regretted eating all of his Halloween candy in one sitting. He now wonders if he can ever eat candy again.

4. No comment, it's a CCC!

5. Batman never thought
he'd ever see Godzilla
he wishes he didn't now

Happy Birthday. May your cake not be a wreck.

2. Maizey. "Me so corny!"
3. 42
4. Frosted morning glory--yumm.
5.Fighting crime-does it pay?
Battling villains night and day!
But they've taken my Bat-mobile away,
Leaving me with this piece of $#^% Camry.
6.Happy Birthday, John in Red!
Underneat that,
Thanks for all the laughs.

Happy Birthday, John! I know this is late, but here's my Batman haiku for you:
(ahem)
It's over, Joker!
The Black Knight can never fail.
I'll bite your legs off!

2. Hi, my name is Urinie and I like yellow snow.

4. Let the sun shine in!
5.
The Dark Knight ponders
Blatant floral nudity
Na-na, Na-na... Nahhh.

Did my best.

1) Orchestrating Success, these bakers really need to conduct themselves better.

2a) Yecko (Yellow Gecko)
2b) I can save you 15% or more on your lemon flavoring

3) 49?, ?, 24, ?, ?, 1-2

4) I'd rather not.

5) look up in the sky
is it a bird or a plane
really what is it?

6) Harlequin Aqua Purple Purple Yellow Blue Indigo Red Teal Harlequin Denim Aqua Yellow Jade Orange Harlequin Navy

Happy Birthday John! As for these cakes.. yikes lol. No words come to mind when I stare at the yellow squashed muppet thing. I think these really blew my mind lol.

November 3, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterArlene Marie

2. Is not a muppet- it's Sooty!!! Catch phrase 'izzy, wizzy, let's get busy!' - look it up on YouTube Hahahahahahaha - still looks like a terrible try

Happy belated birthday, John!

1. They can't spell, but at least they know where to loop the G-clef (sounds nasty, so I hope Clef doesn't get into treble!). Hey, those are the pitches for "Superman," if not the rhythm.
4. I was going to make a "deflowered" comment, but... nevermind.
5. Get me out of here.
Encased in a cement block.
Only Monday? Arrrgh!

Nice A.R.S.E. XD

Ok. I've looked, squinted, looked again, turned my screen upside down and sideways, and still don't see anything wrong or wrecky with the cupcake flower and suns. Given everything else in the post and every other cupcake cake that's been on this blog, that cake is rather charming. Someone point out what I'm supposed to be seeing, please? Because this is coming across like a case of "the problem's in your mind, mister, not mine."

November 3, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterChris

@Chris: Flowers and suns are code for "The existential dilemma of whether a baked good can actually be nude, given that it is not, nor has ever been, clothed; therefore, banning said baked good from any venue on the basis of nudity may well be the internet equivalent of dividing by zero."

And, by the way, PTOOIE! (Cupcake cake!)

Heh.

Rodents Of Unusual Sizes? I don't believe they exist...

November 5, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterSharon

Happy birthday John! Am I the only one who noticed that there that there are 2 1/2 beats in #1? There should either be 2, 3, or 4 beats in a measure. SO ANNOYING! By the way, I play the clarinet in case you were wondering why I'm so upset about this. :)

November 5, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterEva B

This may be terrible

I have seen it all
The look on bakers face
When he finished me

Happy birthday :)

November 9, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterMarie

SO ****** excited that you used the photo I sent you! No swearing, I know, but I'm THAT ******* excited! :-D
And on your birthday too!
HPPY BRITDAY TO YOU!

November 11, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterIreneA

A very happy belated birthday, and I love that the acronym for your response system is "ARSE," which I suspect was unintentional, but is just as funny!

November 14, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterMarisa

The Muppet character's name is Fluffin, and his catch phrase is "How's everybody doin?"
