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.
We ship everything first class USPS, and will do our best to have your package in the mail within 2 days of your order.

I'd forgive anything. Or, within reason.
Me too!
Does it come in chocolate?
That's awesome! I'll have to remember that next time I do something dumb :P
Mr. President, it's gonna take a LOT more than that to make up for the past 8 years.
Sometimes, nothing else will do.
My co-worker just sent me this url.
That's MY cake!!
My hysterically-funny Fiance got me that cake after a particularly heinous argument. He's sent others as well, will see if I can find the pics for you.
I, for one, would melt at something like this. What can I say, I'm a sucker!
Me gusta!!! This made me crack up. I'm going to send this to my boyfriend for further reference.
I love this. It's so perfect, it made me smile... haha.
Cyute.

I once wrote this exact phrase on a cake when I worked at Safeway, honestly!
He had it done at Stop & Shop. He had to spell the word "Stupid" on a piece of paper for the cake decorator. Yikes.
Win!
