Site of the Day: Cake Wrecks

Cake_lA collection of cakes from professional bakeries with such genius misspellings and misinterpretations as Welcome Baby in Pink, (”Olympics Rings”), "Somewhere" quite literally over the rainbow (pictured), unidentifiable characters, suspiciously phallic balloons, and the most egregious monstrosity of all — the cupcake cake. Don’t worry, Jen won’t mock your homemade creations. But she’s so funny, you might wish she had.

    Is this supposed to have a working link on the page to take you to a site with cake mis-hap pics?

    The URL is http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com. I love the site–it reminds me of The Gallery of Regrettable Food, only devoted to cake:

    I just spent the last 10 minutes crying because I was laughing so hard at the Cake Wrecks site. That is freaking hysterical!

  • Winona

    You’re just NOW discovering Cake Wrecks? It’s the best site EVER!!!!

  • Teresa

    Man, these are hilarious. I imagine these people going to pick up their cakes, then trying to argue with the bakery about what’s wrong, then realizing the futility and just shaking their heads and sighing and taking the damn thing home with them.

    *fistbumps Melissa* Yeah, the Lileks site is great. And CakeWrecks is on my daily Must Read list… it’s a great time suck, and I nearly pee with laughter at least once a week. The non-wrecky Sunday Sweets are also well worth a peek. Amazing creations I never imagined (Mario Bros wedding cake?!?) that are almost too gorgeous to eat.
