Can I get a virtual drum roll, please?
Bonus Pun: Say, do you suppose this bakery delivers? (Booyah!)

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? ;)
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.
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.

That writing on the sign is beautiful... too bad...
Oh dear lord.
Yet another nightmare to haunt me for weeks....
=D
That is the creepiest cake I have ever seen.
That's all folks? Isn't a birth the beginning? And I don't want to get started on how unappetizing a surgery wound cake is.
WV-eurgin Eurgin see your lunch again if you look at that cake too long.
Most of the horrible cakes I see on this site I think I would eat after scraping some icing off.
A C-section cake? I don't think I could go there.
Blerggg
this was great!
( :
Most. Disturbing. Cake. Ever.
This is so disturbing! What is the "That's all, folks" supposed to reference? A much-needed C-section? So strange.
No way!!!
(Great puns btw!)
I will never understand these "protruding belly" cakes! As a woman who's given birth twice (via caesarian section both times), I can't say there is anything appealing at all about eating such a cake. Booyah, indeed!
Looks like that mom was having a c-section...
bad idea for a cake.
That is so repulsive! Ugh!
my but that's a gross little cake. I've got this sick desire to get one for my friend's baby shower...
Oh my GOD! Now I know why my husband was so disturbed by my c-section. Hmmm...I'm thinking anniversary cake here :)
I love the new look! Happy Labor Day! Perfect "labor" cake!
What a great way to celebrate my birthday -- by seeing this "birth" day cake! (I was born on Labor Day, too) ;) The cake is truly disgusting.
AAGGHHHH! an Alien.
Wow, that is truly disturbing. I can hardly wait for an episiotomy cake! Maybe with licorice stitches! Mmm...
Whoa! Run away, run away!!!
Great. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be too frightened tonight to get any sleep with images of bloody wounds and baby hands dancing in my head. Ew ;)

Whoa! Run away, run away!!
Perfect.
I love it.
P.S. My word verification to post on your blog is 'hymen'. Even more perfect.
WTH?
/baffled
"That's all folks?" Just how many babies did the cake recipient have?
Is this an Octomom cake?
I guess we can be glad that's not a Looney Toons hand sticking out.
And 20 lashes with a wet noodle for the bad pun, Jen. =P
*falls to knees, lift hands to the heavens and screams* WHYYYYYYYYYYYY?!?
I don't think I'd want to be in the room when someone cuts into that cake.
The sound of screams are already haunting me.
Is it supposed to be a C-section or a pro-abortion cake? Either way, EEK!
My husband just saw the picture...I think his brain snapped. He's babbling now.
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
This looks like a scene from my oldest son's birth video.
Oh dear. You know, I had a c-section, and I got my beautiful daughter because of it. But that cake....*dry heaving*
Wow.
Ugh.
Eeew.
EEEEEEK.
That is THE most gruesome cake yet (I'd I've been a silent admirer or your "arts" for quite sometime.)
Someone is seriously disturbed.
If nothing else, I know *I* am!
Yeah... I've had two kids via c-section, and seeing this cake has made me reconsider ever having more children... It's actually making me reconsider eating cake ever again too!
...except, um, that's a c-section, which kind of doesn't really involve *labor* (assuming it was planned, since there's a cake and all...)
When I was pregnant, I dreamed this exact thing! The baby's little hand popped out of my belly, waved at me, and popped back in. The dream was weird. This is way beyond weird.
3 kids by C-section here. I really didn't want to know what happened on the other side of the curtain.
wv spliet. How appropriate.
I think the cake is celebrating the birth of a baby, and the ending of the mother's ability to have more as in after the baby is delivered she's having her tubes tied.
Just when you think people can't ruin the beauty of cake anymore, you get this.
*deep sighs and head shakes*
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.
That has to be the single most disgusting thing (I refuse to call it a cake) I have ever laid eyes on.
oh wow! what a wreck!
Proving once again that skill level and taste are not precisely the same thing. The workmanship on it is pretty good, but ye gods and little purple fishes! the concept is both revolting (who wants a slice of a sliced up belly?) and surreal in the extreme (that's all folks???? just the hand???? holding a sign in utero????? Salvador Dali couldn't have come up with that one! and if he had, he'd have slapped himself).
BTW, loving the new look, Jen! Naked mohawked baby carrot jockeys FTW!
"Hey! Can I have a c(ake) section? Yeah, just "hand" it over. That looks so yummy, I can't wait to rip into it. Mmmm! Oh baby!"
Oh. My. God.
I'm not sure which is more appalling here, the customer who ordered this affront to all good taste, or the other-wise apparently capable person who produced it.
Why, oh why, can these wreckerators not use their skills for good instead of evil??? *sob*
great design! Love the new blog.
I knew that the baby carrot jockeys couldn't be hidden!
Love
Sabrina from Argentina
**gasp** Ok, it took a full 5 seconds to wrap my brain around what I was seeing, after taking my breath away!! The first second DID NOT see C-section!!! Now the fits of giggles begin!!
I don't understand that sign. "That's all folks" makes it look likes he's going back IN.
Angie (from over at www.HalfAssedKitchen.com)
I'm having a repeat section in six weeks...and I'm on OR nurse. That still makes me wanna throw up.
However, I'm having a tubal at the same time, so THAT'S ALL FOLKS! No, dear husband, I do not need a tubal cake.
I have a co-worker who will be delivering by c-section this month. For some reason, my sick little mind wants to make this, but with a sign that say "Coming Soon To A Belly Near You!"
I'm hoping that is the Octomom's belly with baby number eight coming out. That's all folks should mean she's finally closed her womb!
I LOVE it, LOL.
I just really don't get the 'that's all folks' thing???
Turbopuns!
You didn't even mention the missing apostrophe in "Thats". It's pretty understandable, though. That cake is gruesome.
What a way to relive my c-sections, being completely grossed out by a cake. I think I will lose those last 10 pounds now...
Ewwwwwww!
Blecch!
I had a c-section, it involved more than 16 hours of labor. Good times. Or not, but babies are fun...unless they come out of a scapel wound waving a little banner. Then they're just creepy.
OH, NO! Too funny. Just stopped by from heart 2 heart to see what was up here. Happy holiday!
Another,
Kat
Oh my word... just when I thought I'd seen all the bizarre pregnacy cakes...
Anyway, the puns made me chuckle. Thanks, Jen. :)
Oh my word... just when I thought I'd seen all the bizarre pregnacy cakes...

Ewwwww. And the Looney Toons writing on the sign isn't helping matters... makes me think that Porky Pig is gonna pop out.
Lol! I'll have to show this to my SIL latter. She's busy at the moment delivering my niece!
I'm guessing next year's Labor Day cake could be a vaginal birth cake, you know where the head is crowning?
Very randomly, I read this today: http://snopes.com/photos/medical/thehand.asp
And now this cake.
Weird coincidence!!
What the heck is wrong with people?
oiy.....
Lesley was wondering when the episiotomy cake was coming....I'm waiting for the good old vasectomy cake. mmm mmm mmmmm!
**have a feeling i would have to go to a special kind of site to see that cake**
Oh MY. That's really something. While that cakes themselves might make me think ugh, the comments are great for a laugh.
I don't understand the sign paired with the C-section. If anything, it strikes me as terribly morbid!
Ugh. Too. effin. creepy.
I'm thinking this may be a retirement cake for an ob/gyn doc. People who work in medicine tend to have a rather cavalier attitude about the whole yuck factor. They sort of have to.
Happy Labor Day, everyone.
Ok, You've found it, the worst Baby shower cake out there. The baby caskets were terrible, the naked carrot jockeys - cute in a disturbing way...this one?? Just wrong, on so many levels.
Thanks Cakewrecks for another wonderful start to a Monday Morning!
Ew. *vomits*
Jen, I think your puns have hit a new low. I'm impressed. :-)
Blech... good thing you warned me to put down my coffee... Why? Why? Why would anyone ever think that *that* would be a great idea for a cake? I think I just barfed in my mouth a little.
Thanks Jen...
Maybe this is her last baby, hence the "That's All Folks!"
Dutch you say? My fiancee's Mother is Dutch and the eldest of 16 children! Apparently, when their Grandmother had one of the later Uncles,(who practically FELL out), she looked down briefly and said in a less than enthusiastic tone, "Oh, another boy."
But none were cesareans.
I think that cake is more disgusting than the story I just told!
Seriously??
Wow -- a cake that got an audible "Oh my god!" out of me. Brilliant. :D
Eeeeeeeeew!
If this whole cake wrecks thing doesn't work out, you could surely get a job writing headlines for the New York Post
Who on EARTH would order this? Or serve it? Or not be appalled by it? And the sign means what? Is it a midwife being cruel about women who take their doctor's advice. Lesley B is right, the only place left to go is an episiotomy cake.
Oh PUKE!!!!
Happy holiday! That cake is mildly disturbing...
If this had been published in the paper...would it have been in "C-Section?"
I wonder if this cake took 9 months to bake...a long time to have a bun in the oven...Jen, I think you took all the good puns! I can't match you!
The cake is just too odd for words so I'll comment on the puns...AWESOME! You rock!
This cake was obviously intended for an obstetrician's retirement party. In that context it makes perfect sense, but is no less repulsive.
Things could be worse: the sign could say "Happy Falker Satherhood".
In the words on one of my favorite bloggers (other than you), sicknast.
P.S. Now that you've got a fancy new blog and a book coming out, are you going to have like 8,000 followers. *listening to whisper in my ear.* Oh. Congratulations, then.
My husband described our son's birth as "something out of Alien" and I think this was what he had in mind, but without the sign.
That said, Auugh! I so do not want to be there when they start serving this cake (I just hope it's not red velvet).
Awesome new web design, glad to see the carrot jockeys back. And front.
my word-sinestos Sounds like a Mexican cartoon villian.
AAUUUGHHH!!!
THE HORROR!
That is just wrong on so many levels.
Problems with this cake:
1) You are eating an open wound.
2) If you scrape off the wound, you are still eating a pregnant belly.
3) And inside that belly is a baby.
This is among the most disgusting cakes I have ever seen, I read this blog regularly. Ugh.
I would like a cake that celebrates my natural birth then, please. Crowning = delicious! I mean, sure, I might have to talk to the local erotic bakery to get us started...
Holy crap, can't believe you all were at Dragoncon too! Wish I could have seen you all, would have been pretty neat for me. I did see the guy walking around with Cakey, and that was pretty cool.
love the new look!
Somebody get the flamethrower, we've got a chestburster on the loose!
*Cough*
Anyway, I think I'll stay FAR away from this cake. Alien nightmares are NOT fun.
Thanks! I'm going in for a C-section in 8 days. This was perfectly timed!
I spent my morning researching photos of Caesareans for work. And now I come home to this. I think the universe is trying to tell me something. Something unpleasant.
why is the cake all flesh colored on the edges... the the green surgery sheet leave mommy cake exposed?
That was disturbing. Awesome puns though!
Ugh...NO! You couldn't pay me to eat this thing with your mouth.
And people wonder why I don't want kids. Ugh.
Lesley, PLEASE don't give Stevie Famulari any more disgustingly deranged ideas.
Oh my lord! There is simply no end to the horrible baby shower cakes, is there?!!
The taste for this cake is less than "questionnable", it's plain tasteless; and it's definitely creepy.
Three thoughts come to mind:
1.She's giving birth to Bugs Bunny?
2. Who wants to eat an open wound cake...honestly?
3. my stomach hurts... I think I'm gonna hurl... Thanks Jen.
Oh my god!
Me: Hm what do we have for Labor-- AAAAHHHH!!
*calls husband in*
Me: I will let you scroll down so you can have the same experience I did.
Husband: AAAAHHH!!
ewewewewew!!!
oh my god it looks like the baby/creature is escaping into the wound. bye-bye!!
terrifying.
but kind of an interesting juxtaposition, i must admit. looney tunes + surgery...?
I have a pregnant coworker who is in the next room right now. I think I better not show this one to her. YIKES!!!!!!!
Who would ever think this was a good idea???
that has got to be one of the most disgusting things i have seen in a loooooooooong time! Even on CakeWrecks....I think I need some brain bleach!
As an extra added bonus, I was personally born on Labor Day. 2 in the morning. (5 days before my mother's birthday). We take turns once in a while having birthdays on Labor Day. XD
You can't unsee something, though I wish I could. I'm always morbidly curious as to what flavor these cakes are composed of - they wouldn't dare use red velvet, would they?
Not to mention that the sign is missing an apostrophe.
eww gross!!!!!!!!
That's just wrong.
HMMMMMM.... There is defiantly no excuse fore this one....Yuk!
So 4 years ago today, my daughter was born via C-section after 4 separate attempts at induction.
If anyone should appreciate this cake, it's me.
Instead, I just threw up a little. And not in a good way.
What did you get in 7 puns in one post - awesome!!!!
You know, four years ago, I spent Labor Day in triage waiting to find out that my contractions were false alarms...four days later I got to have a c-section...
It's like this post was MADE for me! (But I would have to hurt the person who thought I would like that cake. As in, 20-hours-of-completely-unproductive-labor hurt them.)
After having my own C-section I find nothing funny or appetizing about that cake.
it. is. horrid.
I really don't know what to say to that... It leaves you speechless, so I suppose that's a positive :)
Oh dear God, that cake is giving me flashbacks from my own c-section!
OMG...Sorry, but it got me wondering what Porky Pig was doing in there...
Open wound cakes?? Ewwwwwwwwwww!
I just want you to know that this blog is giving me nightmares. Well, not nightmares necessarily, but weird dreams. I went through your blog a bit yesterday after coming home from a long day working as a nurse at a nursing home. I had a dream about elderly people making cupcake cakes. Aaaaaaaaaargh!
--Nicole
That cake is awesome...not at all scary, even though that will be me in 5 weeks.
I recently had my son through c-section. After seeing this cake, I'm so bummed that my hubby didn't surprise me with such a creation. The hospital should give these routinely to women who have c-sections. *rolls eyes* That cake is repulsive. Blech.
a late abortion cake was my first thought.
That is truly disturbing. Also an apostrophe catastrophe. "Thats [sic] all..."
oh. my. God.
That one really takes the cake. Ba-dum-bump.
I'm a labour and delivery nurse and I think this cake is brilliant! We would happily buy this cake and enjoy it at one of our parties-granted we all have warped senses of humour, but you need one to be a nurse, lol!
Well done, whoever made this cake!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK.
Oh my lord. That is quite possibly the most disturbing cake I have ever seen. Ever. Ever,
Tell me the Dugger's ordered this cake.
I lol'd hard, and was thankful that it's a C-section cake and not a "natural birth" one as I'd first feared.
Of course, that second one has probably been done too. Ew.
As my WV I got 'rechly'. Indeed. Actually, I kinda love this utterly gross and repulsive thing, cos I'm thinking it's ideal to serve at a party with all my family and friends who still insist that I should, and/or eventually will, change my mind about being childfree - this might just be what I need to get the message across.
Nice. Considering I just had a C-section one week ago, I love it, actually!!! :-D
Oh, I think this is hilarious! Sick and wrong, yes, but it gave a laugh.
Omgosh. That's sick! And I have been in the operating room to see C-sections. UGH! My eyes!! >__<
A little disturbing but funny as heck!!!
If this is the wrecker's idea of a c-section cake, I would be afraid to see their depiction of a VBAC.
"That's all, folks"? Seems more like a miscarriage cake to me.
I submitted this one...it was a celebration cake for a delivery nurses' last night shift.
Heh. "Labor" Day. I get it. Cute, but disturbing...
There is nothing about this that celebrates LABOR. A C-section, in general, should not be celebrated, and there is NO labor involved. A bad misguided pun and a very unappetizing cake - on many levels. Disgraceful.
I hope "That's All Folks" doesn't mean that's all there is to it, that a c-section is so easy. I've never had one myself (two vaginal births, one an unassisted home birth), but I'm sure there's nothing easy about it. And even if that's not what they're saying, c-sections are nothing to poke fun at...especially with the rate in America at a whopping and unheard of 33%!!!
...are we sure that is supposed to be her...stomach? ....or did the baby reach out of the OTHER hole?
