This One's for the Girls

Thursday, March 5, 2009

(ATTENTION MOMS: this post may be mildly inappropriate for young children.)

Alright ladies, it's OUR turn.

That's right: it's time to turn the tables on all those chauvinistic guys who order the boob or butt cakes, rendering the female form as nothing more than an object - and an edible one at that! It's time to ogle the MALE form in cake for once, and show them how it feels! You heard me, gentlemen: prepare... to be objectified!! [rubbing hands together] Heheheh. This is gonna be awesome.

Ok, let's start the show!

First up, ladies, check out this sexy little...

Oh.

["Urp"ing noise]

Sorry, sorry. Uh, yeah, Julie B.? This one's really not doing anything for me. In fact, the neck hump area is kind of grossing me out.

Not to worry, though; there's more where that came from. Next!

Huh.

Um, Donna B., not that I don't appreciate the liberal use of painted-on under-arm hair (and other hair which I was kind enough to cover - you're welcome) and the whole "good luck on your wedding night" sentiment, but again, this is really having more of the opposite effect on me. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that it looks like the chest of a pasty-white prepubescent.

Ohhhkay. Now I just creeped myself out, looking at this. [averting eyes] Next! NEXT!!


Whoa! I think we just went to the other extreme; this guys looks to be about 70. And is it just me, or does he have a bunch of raisins on his chest? That, or his chest hair has gone all matted and clumpy. [gagging] Rapidly. Losing. Appetite.

By the way, Amanda E., not that I'm complaining, but I don't think he has any nipples. Again, NOT complaining. Really. Put those raisins down, woman!

Oh, look: Tam & Annabel found Mr. Heard-it-through-the-grapevine's bottom half, and it begs the question...

Is acupuncture ever a good package deal? Just wondering.


Ok, this is ridiculous. I don't feel like we've objectified any guys at all with these cakes! Sarah W., you're our last hope. Bring it, sistah.

Aaaugh!! My eyes! My seared, bleeding eyes!

What this headless, neckless, armless, and legless torso lacks in limbs it certainly makes up for with day-glo orange streakiness. Not to mention that it exudes a kind of sinister intelligence: I swear it's looking at me.

In fact, here's a hypothetical for y'all: You get up in the middle of the night, and turn suddenly to find this cake hopping along behind you. Do you:

a) scream b) laugh c) grab a fork or d) all of the above?

[sigh] Well, ladies, I'm sorry: our quest to objectify men using cakes has failed. But on the bright side, we'll always have Tom Selleck - right?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

O vile. O vile. O vile.

My partner will be very angry with Cake Wrecks now because my sexual motivation has entirely vanished!

Bring back the boobies; I like em better!

Anonymous said...

That last one looks like E.T.

Anonymous said...

It's the 8 (only 8??) candles on the yellow pants that are worrying me!

I'm not sure which is the best wreck, they're all, um, unappetising. Good for a giggle though, which is pretty much all the male form is good for generally ;) Oh wait.... I have 3 kids!

Anonymous said...

Oh god, these a kind of terrifying! But where are those quintessential bachelorette party cakes?!
And I thought I should warn you... you put "your welcome" instead of "you're welcome". I hate to sound picky, but you know how it goes for grammar on this site....

Ace said...

Ew. I have no other words.

Except for the last cake, I'd have to say the answer is definitely d.

Morgan said...

good god, make it stop.

I think this says something about the difference between hot guys and hot girls. Hot girl = Boobs? Check. Butt? Check. Done.

Hot guy = so many things. Underdefined muscles? Eurgh. Overdefined muscles? Disgusting. Broad shoulders, great; broad neck gross. Men are a lot harder to get right.

That's my excuse, anyway.

Anonymous said...

*gag* Truly horrific. Tom's definitely the best of the bunch!

(btw, it's "you're welcome", and in that case, it's "effect", not "affect"...just FYI).

HorribleLicensePlates said...

Was that bulge in the yellow shorts necessary? I just puked a little (this was between laughing fits, however)

Baking and Mistaking said...

Oh my god.
How could anyone ever eat one of those??

Jen said...

The nipples on that last cake are beyond disturbing. Do you think the decorator thought it looked good? Like, did they look at it and think "Yeah, those nipples don't look at all the rivets on 501 jeans!"

Anonymous said...

I wouldn't have even known what number three was if it hadn't been in this post of "manly" torsos and nether regions.

EW. Yuck.

Bring back the boobies.

Anonymous said...

I wouldn't/couldn't eat those if you paid me. Oh gross!

A.M.Bush said...

omg gross, these are like silent hill

Kara said...

The first one just looks like multiple breasts shoved together like biscuits being baked in a sheet pan.

Anonymous said...

I'm thinking that after getting his cake, Levon, might actually get back in the closet.

w/v mings - manly things, "who in God's name baked those mings?"

Tabitha (From Single to Married) said...

oh my goodness! Those are awesome! So funny, if not a little bit disgusting (and thanks for covering up the hairy parts - I don't think I could have handled it first thing in the morning).

Anonymous said...

Gives a whole new meaning to the expression "Eat my shorts". Um, isn't "Eamon" a boy's name? And I always thought "Levon" was a boyish name as well. Hmmm.
Hard to believe anyone thought ANY of these cakes was a good idea, either as a concept or in actuality. Body hair (even fake) on a cake.....eeeeeeeeeeeewww.

Unknown said...

Um - #3 - is it channeling Ricardo Montalban as 'Khan' in Trek II?

eew - these are all splendiforously bad.

Word verification=sancati.

I think they violated the sancati of the male form for me.

Vanessa said...

Are the nipples on the torso cake made out of pickles?????

Eeewww......

Cindy in GA said...

EW! Ew! EEEWWWWW!!!! These are so darn gross. I'm thinking they just need to stop trying so hard and just have a nice piece of (NORMAL-looking) cake if they want it and fuhgeddabout the whole Make-it-look-human aspect. Besides, all cake should be chocolate, anyway, right? :o)

Sylvia said...

Oh my word. I am speechless. Best Cakewrecks EVER. Or worst, iyswim.

I can't stop laughing.

I thought men had heads....??

Elena said...

Wedding night nipples are pennies?????

JAMIE'S CREW said...

People really paid money for these? Yuck. #3 looks more like a geographical map to me.

Anonymous said...

The thing is that the nipples always look wrong but if you leave them off it looks worse. The solution to that of course is to not make a cake of a torso. And if that last one came after me, I'd scream and grab a fork to stab its eyes (or nipples) out.

Rosemary said...

When the third one scrolled into view, "gravesite" flashed through my mind. *Doubly* unappealing now.

As for the wedding night cake...like a Ken doll, it appears NOT to be anatomically correct, since there's nothing under that zipper. Which--given the bumpy one below it--is fine by me, thanks.

ilovebabyquilts said...

Ok, that last one is a dahlek.

EXTERMINATE!

These are the most horrifying of all of the cakes I've seen here so far.

katie@tulsadetails said...

I am not sure if I have ever seen anything quite as inedible as these!!!

Wow..just..um...wow. I'm a little nauseous. The men lounging on questionable polar bear rugs was much better. This post was truly urp-tastic.

kerry said...

oh, i have such a stomach ache now. i'm not sure if it's from laughing so hard or from the complete grotesqueness of the cakes.

BellaLovesPink said...

Laugh out loud FUNNY! My sides hurt.

thanks, sandy, that was also bugging me.

also, i really think the second one needs the little white box replaced, because i imagine it's pretty hilarious.

The last cake looks like it went for the ol' QT sunless tanner . . .

amyd said...

So disturbing. What on earth could be considered sexy about a torso without a head?

Anonymous said...

the one with the bulge in the boxer shorts...
isn't eamon a boy's name? and count the candles, he's 8!

Amy Ellen said...

My gosh those are awful. I have never liked the stupid woman cakes, although yes I was coerced into making one, but these are just scary. ewwwwwwwwww

kikibibi said...

why does that last one have olives for nipples?

eww, can't believe i just typed olives and nipples in the same sentence. twice.

Oh noes! Cadaver cakes! I really hope this doesn't turn into some kinda "cakes for teh ladies" trend at any bakery near me.

Ick!!!

Unknown said...

Is it just me or does cake number three look like a rotting corpse?

Ginger said...

I'm not gonna lie, the shorts cake made laugh.

D.B. Echo said...

Well, at least they're not feet!

Sarah Glova said...

awful. just awful. why are there only 8 candles on the yellow pants cake... not good, not good.

Unknown said...

GAG. ME. OUT. I have to say I agree with you, my appetite just kind of flew out the window- those were so creepy!!! ALL OF THEM!

Anonymous said...

WOW! These are ALL a whole lotta nasty. Body hair, or any hair for that matter, on a cake is just plain gross. Being a fan of CSI type shows, torsos (whether they're cake or otherwise) are just not something I wanna eat! The "nipples" are just plain disturbing. And the last one should be the poster child for anti-self tanners! EWWWWW...

Etiquette Bitch said...

ugh, ugh, ugh. gross and hilarious at the same time.

regarding Eamon's cake, I can't help but wonder if the cake is supposed to be a, uh, *rendition* of Eamon?

Camille said...

Oh my gosh! I love this post the most.

Robin said...

I'm most disturbed by what appears to be a melenoma on the left hand side of the bunch of grapes/hairy chest/old man/so many men ... cake.

It's nice to know that those with skin diseases aren't discriminated against in the world of dismembered torso cakes.

I think the guy who was the moddel for the yellow shorts danced at my friends bachlorette (sp?) party and let me tell ya cutting off his face is a good thing. Cutting off his whole torso seems a bit much though.

Marie said...

B-day cakes for cannibals?

Unknown said...

My question is... why is Eamon getting an acupuncture penis cake? (Of course, Eamon is the name of my cousin's 2 yr old son... so I'm picturing little mischievious Eamon diving into that cake... it's a bit disturbing)

Galadriel said...

#3 looks like (a scaled down version of) a BMX bike track near me. I really can't see anything else in that photo. It's a couple of dirt dunes and other terrain. Yup.

Viewtiful_Justin said...

Amazing and wonderful. I laughed so hard I shot milk out my nose. And...the last time I drank milk was 6 last night.

Unknown said...

Okay, I'm so very, very disturbed...and confused with the shorts cake. Is Eamon a BOY??

Unknown said...

UM....well, the acupuncture "package" is of questionable origin. I think it's wearing a codpiece. LOL

And the armless, legless torso? Looks to be taken off a package of underwear.

Ugh, I'm feeling sick. The last cake looks like ET's cousin!

Christa said...

MY EYES MY PRECIOUS EYES!!!
I was reading and then I looked at the next picture and I said " Oh my God are those freakin raisin?!" How freakin gross...raisins on a cake?! as chest hair?! Oh and thank you very very much for covering those extra curly painted on hairs...I'm half way laughing and crying because I don't know what to say! It's just so WRONG!!!

Rachel said...

Clearly cake #2 was made for a Twilight fan. I mean, the extreme paleness and complete lack of muscles??? Who else could it be but Edward Cullen?

I just want to thank you for providing a funny in my day! I teach junuior high and at lunch everyday I come here for smile!

I was laughing and gagging at the same time with these cakes. So wrong...

I have to wonder, who gets the bulge on the yellow cake?

The Ferber Family said...

you know... with the right kind of airbrushing (yes, i said it) you could almost make that first one into a passable Plo Kloon cake... google it ladies.

Robert said...

* sigh * I had such hope for this posting, but these are so much worse than even the Tom Selleck cakes!

It kinda makes me wonder how these would have turned out if they were made as cupcake cakes...

i honestly believe that those are the creepiest cakes i've ever seen on this site.

Sister Pottymouth said...

Bwaaaaahahahahahahahahahaha! You made my whole morning. I'll be laughing all day. (And using eye bleach.)

Ashley said...

Ahahaha! I love the last one. And yes...yes it does appear to be staring at me. But I would totally grab a fork and chow down on it if it appeared in my house. Looks like a lot of icing. Gotta love that icing.

Thank Jen, now I'm going to have nightmares about a headless cake hobbling after me down dark corridors.

Debbi said...

Nope. No words. I am rendered speechless. And that has *NEVER* happened before.

sidewalk driver said...

What is it called when the kitchen trashcan is filled with 30 plates of untouched pieces of one of these cakes? A crime scene?

Word verification is "excreime"--these are excreimely horrible? These made me excreime? Argh! I think I'm going to excreime!!

Anonymous said...

I think Eamon is really 9. If you look closely, (I know, I know), there is what looks like a candle divot on the "cupcake". Maybe it marks 9 years since Eamon came out of the closet?

OMG! the first cake is clearly Weight Watcher's Hungry, shaved.

Oh. My. I've seen crime scene photographs that look distressingly like these cakes...Jeffery Dahmer is coming to mind right now. I know I want my cake to make me think of cannibalistic serial killers...yummy maimed torso.

the nipples--oh! the nipples!

ick, ick, ICK!

these cakes make you appreciate the REAL male figure, hey?

Jen said...

The 'Eamon' cake was for an Australian Olympic swimmer, guys, so yep, he's a boy! He was declared the "face" of some underwear brand, so at a store opening the company had this cake made.

Obviously, none of that makes it any less hilarious.

Oh, and @Viewtiful Justin: you gave me a literal LOL with your comment - thanks.

I'm also laughing at all you WOMEN telling me to bring the boobies back. You just stay tuned, ladies...

what i find veryyy interesting is tha mr yellow boxers( next to last)

Anonymous said...

Er...are those four sparklers on Eamon's cake? Maybe those stand for decades, and the candles for years--in which case Eamon is 48. Which is a lot better than 8.

(Or maybe the sparklers are there to set off fire alarms so that no one has to see the actual cake at the party...)

And I think that first one is a loaf pan cake...similar to a CCC, only...er...bigger.

Jen, I think you've shocked a couple of your readers with this incontrovertible evidence that some men like to look at naked male torsos.* Innocence lost, all due to Cake Wrecks.

BTW, my word verification is mitypit. Hail the mitypit! Let's portray it on a cake, with its mity mitypit hair!
And even better: I used an unacceptable HTML tag, so had to remove it and enter another WV, and it was angsts! That one is WAY too easy to use in a Cake Wrecks-related sentence!

Ha! I work for the company that the last cake was at. (We're an underwear company, Skiviez, and it was the boss's birthday.) He seemed to really like the cake.

I think the instructions were "underwear cake," so I was a bit surprised/appalled that the baker elected to make it, um, so vertical.

Trust me, an even more horrifying sight was coming in the Monday after the party and seeing that someone had left this half hacked-into torso sitting on the warehouse sorting table!

Anonymous said...

You know what's possibly the craziest part? The 'Happy Birthday Eamon' cake looks like it was the birthday cake for Eamon Sullivan (Australian Olympic gold medallist swimmer). He's the face of Davenport along with Stephanie Rice, and those daks sure do appear to say 'Davenport' on the waistband...

You'd think that being all rich and famous and shit, that they'd probably think to give him a cake less wrecky!!
