Poor Bunjamioh
Tuesday, May 20, 2008
Not only did his parents saddle him with that awful name, but he also got one of the ugliest birthday cakes this side of fuglyville. Check out the mismatched neon orange borders, burgundy roses (for that feminine touch), and rotting swamp-mud colored leaves.
Take heart, Bunni; when you're 18 you can change your name AND buy your own birthday cake.

What's a Wreck?
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? ;)

Where's the book?
We don’t have any copies of Cake Wrecks for sale here, autographed or otherwise. We decided the shipping and handling costs would be too high to make it worth your while. So instead, buy your copies locally or online and then order personalized bookplates: it’s cheaper, easier, and I think even looks a bit nicer.
Ordering Info
Payments must be made through Paypal, which accepts all major credit cards. Sorry, but that means no checks or MOs or barter-based chickens.

What's wrong with Benjamin? :P
The 'y' from birthday just screwed with the 'n', and the 'e' is all flattened.
Those leaves sure do look rotten. What a sad cake :(
It looks like it was decorated with ketchup!! rofl
I don't understand the problem with Benjamin...
Aw...why the hate for the name? :(
Its spelled benjamin but intersect the last IN
There is no problem with "Benjamin", it's just a joke on the fact that on the cake it's written so badly that it looks like "Bunjamioh", which IS a bad name.
Actually I think it looks like "Bumjamioh", which is worse.
OMG, I almost threw up. I can't see those roses as anything other than a prolapsed organ. Uggh.
this reminds me of a sofa .... from the 70's
I can't stop cry-laughing at this post! It's so funny it hurts.
I keep saying "Bunjamioh" aloud.
I'm spluttering and laughing like a complete fanny.
Bunjamioh - OMG, that is too funny. I can't stop saying it out loud.
Of course, we know it is just a bad SCRIPTING and not actual misspelling, but it is funny!
Hopefully this guy went to Virginia Tech, whose colors are orange and marron (spelling?)
Bunjamioh from Ohio? I totally went to prom with you! Remember: you wore the orange and rose-colored bowtie with matching cumberband. And you used to love to "bunjie" jump and do the "bun-jam" and we'd all yell "Oh!"
Oh my goodness - I have tears rolling down my cheeks. This was the funniest thing I've seen all day.
it's 12:32am and i am trying not to LOL, i am crylaughing. alot. i don't even remember how i stumbled onto your blog at this point but i can't leave!
Are those roses made out of bacon?
This made me laugh so hard my sides hurt.
OMG!! I laughed so hard with tears running down!
That poor kid!
did someone lick the icing at the bottom?
HAHAHAHAAAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA i found this blog today and am in the middle of reading every post, and for some reason I just could NOT stop laughing when I saw this one. I think i'm going to die from a ruptured lung. BAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHA. poor bunjamioh!!!!!!!!! tee hee. :)
The "roses" look like prolapsed anuses. Just sayin.
I imagine Bunjamioh being said with an italian accent. I stumble upon this site from a suggestion from a friend and have been laughing at all of the amazingly bad cake messups but the word bunjamioh has me cracking up laughing nonstop. WHY IS IT SO FUNNY! Bahahaah!
Even now, a year later, my best friend and I still look at each other at random moments and say, "Poor Bunjamioh". And then the other one snorfs soda out their nose.
roflmao... hehe i spent like 20 minutes laughing at this. (im on sugar, you see, sooooooo) but anyway... bunjamioh XDDDDDD.. god that cake died....
