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? ;)

Meanwhile, in Portugal...

 

Marcio B., I would say something about Portuguese Frosty needing a Brazilian, but judging by those expressions, THEY KNOW.

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN

Just one week left 'til Christmas (!!), and the wrecks you guys are sending in just keep getting more bizarre by the day:

 

Snowman? Santa? Disco sheep? Marshmallow-covered Walter Peck? 

  

THE WORLD MAY NEVER KNOW.

 

 "...and all the acid rain and pollution seeped into Frosty's body, turning him into a petrified statue of ash, all because someone didn't take out the recycling when his parents asked.  

"THE END."

 

 

 

Is this:

A) The Eye of Sauron 

B) A taco wearing a corset 

C) The Eye of Sauron wearing a corset

or 

D) Real life?

 

You might think the simplest, easiest option would be an elegant red bow on a plain white cake.

 

But, CLEARLY, you would be wrong.

 (What did the baker use for a piping tip? His teeth?)

 

This next one is tentacly titled "I'm dreaming of a Cthulhu Christmas."

Darkly dreaming, of course.

 

Wondering what those are supposed to be? So was I, until Sarah sent in this photo from a different store:

Now I'm REALLY curious.

 (Yes, yes, I know it's supposed to be a tree. I just refuse to accept it.)

 

And finally, a little holiday math for you:

Angels we have heard below

Softly singing "oh-hh noooOooo!"

 

 

Thanks to wreckporters Elizabeth T., Tina, Gene H., Jill W., Billy G., Sarah L., & Amy V. for giving Sharyn a starting point for today's song re-write in the comments. (Challenge: ISSUED.)
