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.

Congratulations Jen! Nice article and excellent advice. Here's hoping you've saved at least a couple brides from a Wrecked reception.
Great interview! Congratulations!
Wow! no extra " "s.
You sounded really nice and all....
Congos on the interview! :)

Very informative! I love that my fave cake wreck was mentioned and shown - the bride replica! That one cracks me up each and every time I see it!
We've spent a LOT of time over here laughing! :) Oh, and we gave you a shout-out on our blog--www.ourbestbites.com. Thanks for the funniness!
Oh Congrats! Wedding cake wrecks tend to be some of my favorites (and make me cringe the most when I think of my wedding and how lucky we were that there was only a hand print in our cake... long story)!

Conragtu- Congradjoo-- Aww, hell: Good job, you! ;) Your explanation for why there are so few wedding cake wrecks makes perfect sense. Is it evil, though, to wish there were more?
Very nice. All stuff we already know about you, though... ;) It should be good for getting some new readers to your blog. Assuming, of course, there is anyone out there who doesn't already read it!
One question -- why is there no mention on there about CCC's? I did see some CCC's on their site, but for some strange reason they didn't ask you what you thought of them. Hmmm...
