Guess What!

It's time to play everyone's favorite game:

What...Is...THIS??


Hm. Well, it says, "Princess," and there's a scepter and a tiara on it.

So I'm going with "uterus."


Uh...

Also "uterus."


"Uterus on LSD."


"Uterus with sprinkles"


"This is getting ridiculous."


And finally, today's bonus round is in the bag:

The magic baby bag.

Awww yeeeeeah.


Hey, Mandi B., Elizabeth A., Vicktoria R., Caitlin & Anthony, Kelly J., & Shayna S., you know how to politely refuse a uterus cake, right? "Thanks, but I gestate."

  2. This makes me miss mine even more. I need some cake.

  3. What? I just guessed what so now you have to tell me what I won.

  4. Uterus cakes. Sad to say, you are correct, it's exactly what they look like. But WHY???

    ReplyDelete
  5. "uterus with sprinkles."

    I used to think everything was better with sprinkles. Maybe not so much anymore?

    ReplyDelete
  6. This post just made my morning! I'm going to have the psychadelic uterus in my head all day. Ha ha ha!

  7. On LSD....*snort* *chortle*

    Had that one not said Hook 'Em, I would not have guessed that to be a cow head at all.

    What? No Princess Bride quotes today? These certainly deserve it.

  8. All I can see is uteruses. It is disturbing, although now my brain is turned to what is if that was the proper spelling for plural uterus. I feel as though uterus should be the plural for uterus, like moose. My brain is suffeciently addled. Time to go to work.

  9. BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    Those are hysterical! Cake 1, reminds me of Shrek 2 when the fairy godmother gets zapped and all that's left is her glasses and wand.

    Cake 2, Boy what a sadistic cake! Smack, then pucker up? (read it like the old Batman TV show...Pow! Zap!)? I guess that's why the lips are so huge.

    Cake 3, "Uterus on LSD" LOL-ed on that one! I think it's starin' at me man!

    Cake 4, Uterus with sprinkles? She may want to go have that checked out.... O.o

    Cake 5, I'm guessing that's supposed to be some sort of sport team mascot? FAIL.

    Cake 6, Yeah, another one that needs their Va-dragon checked. Spots. Not. Good. Nice lettering tho'.

    wv: chancy: It's awful chancy using these "bakers" to make your cake!

  10. "Gestate!" Buahahaha!

  11. Are you trying to say something, is Jon expecting ?!?!?!?!

  12. I Gestate... I love it

    ReplyDelete
  13. Ohhhh, Jen! Gestate???? I love your puns more than cake.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Ouch. The longhorn cake hurts. Any baker worth their salt in Texas knows how to make a longhorn cake.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I'd like to think my uterus is psychedelic. ;D

    ReplyDelete
  16. "Thanks, but I gestate."

    Awesome! Made me snort! Thanks...

    These cakes are uterus-lly ridiculous!

    Love them all, in a wrecky sort of way.

    wv - mingrae: Looking at all the uterine wrecks gave me a mingrae headache!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Is the Princess Uterus moldy? Maybe flecked with dark purple overspray from a different cake??

    ReplyDelete
  19. "Uterus on LSD"
    I just chocked on my coffee.
    You rock this post :)

    ReplyDelete
  20. At least the Uterus on LSD looks...well...happy! I think it's smiling...or maybe it's a flashback....

    wv - dusnes: Hey - dusnes look like a uterus to you?

    ReplyDelete
  21. " . . . but I gestate." Genius!

    Those are positively fallopian (what? It's an adjective, isn't it?).

    wv - sansupsy

    I'm embarrassed to say "uterus" - I prefer cutesy words. So, I'll just say that, since my hysterectomy, I am sansupsy. Hope your upsy is fine!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Ridiculous is right!

    Oh gee...I hope I don't see uteri (plural?) everywhere I look now. That's the last thing I need...

    ReplyDelete
  23. I would just like to say that my almost two year old daughter climbed in my lap when I was looking at today's post, looked at the screen, popped her thumb out of her mouth, and said "Oh no!". Even a two year old can recognize a Wreck.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Being pregnant, I have had my uterus on my mind lately so I appreciate today's post. Thank you!

    "Gestate" !!!! Love it! :)

    But I must ask -- what was the LSD uterus really supposed to be?

    ReplyDelete
  25. I can see what they were all going for except for the one on LSD. What is that supposed to be and why can't I see it? (Help!)

    ReplyDelete
  26. "Thanks but I gestate"????
    Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
    I love a good pun in the morning. Thank you.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I once made a co-worker a Uterus Memory Book when she was getting ready to have a hysterectomy, complete with opening "Ode to My Uterus" poem. Who knew we could have had cake too??

    ReplyDelete
  28. I don't see how that one on LSD could be anything BUT a uterus! WHY does this exist?? :J

    ReplyDelete
  29. Thanks but I gestate XD XD perfect pun :D

    ReplyDelete
  30. This kind of made my day, since I'm going to the lady parts doctor this afternoon. Maybe if I ask nicely she will put some sprinkles there.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I was totally expecting a pregnancy announcement at the end of this one!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Jen, is it that time of the month? uterus on the brain. Does that last one have a venereal disease?

    ReplyDelete
  33. I might like my uterus more if it came with sprinkles.


    Hilarious post! <3 <3

    ReplyDelete
  34. yes, what was the LSD cake going for? ET meets the Rainbow Connection?

    Meanwhile the cake with sprinkles looks like Pippi Longstocking with dandruff (or confetti) in freefall

    ReplyDelete
  35. The uterus on LSD...I think that one might actually be a uterus...on LSD.
    The rest, unrecognizable...

    ReplyDelete
  36. The last cake is proof that buying a fancy fondant cutting machine doesn't always improve your decorating skills. At least it helps with the spelling.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I thought the first one said Princess Balls. Which actually made sense, since they could be pink balls. However, I doubt that Princess' have balls. The others, I got nuthin'.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Uterus #1 looks more like a stomach. If you swallow that much hardware, though, you're definitely going to have a grumbly in your tummy.

    And, finally, "Thanks, but I gestate" is a criminally bad pun. And yes, it made me laugh until almost choked.

    WV: shesses. Shesses it's not her fault everything looks like a uterus.

    ReplyDelete
  39. right lets see...

    1)The Princess Uterus: ok, I have no clue on this one!

    2)The 'Also' Uterus: I think this is supposed to be a set of kissing lips

    3)Uterus on LSD: I don't know, but I'm getting trippy just looking at it

    4)Uterus with Sprinkles: Pretty sure this is supposed to be yet another set of kissing lips

    5)The Ridiculous Uterus: Bull head. Texas Longhorns??

    6)The Magic Baby Bag: guessing this is supposed to be a handbag cake... but in reality I think it looks like panties

    Abby-- I live in MN too and if you find a lady parts doctor that wacky and fun I'm gonna need details. (thanks for cracking me after I got so giggly at Jen's post.)

    I DO have a psychedelic uterus -- but that's because of things I Gestate in the 70's. sigh.

  41. "Thanks but I gestate." *falls over laughing* :D Your years as a jungle cruise skipper weren't good to you, were they?! :D Love this! NOTHING whets my appetite like cake shaped like ambiguous reproductive organs. So irresistibly YUM.

    ReplyDelete
  42. The first one is supposed to be a sash...I think. Sadly, this is actually what the picture looks like from Deco Pac/Bakery Craft. (I don't remember which company actually sells this kit.) So it's their fault for creating such ugly cake designs.

  43. When you said "uterus with sprinkles" I almost spat out my coffee. LOL!

    ReplyDelete
  44. When will these CCCs go away?!? Although my local grocery store makes some beautiful ones...

    It just makes more sense, with the Sprinkles and Cupcakes, DC craze that people would just order two dozen INDIVIDUALLY decorated cupcakes...doesn't it?

    ReplyDelete
  45. Seriously. What was the "Uterus on LSD" one supposed to be?!

    ReplyDelete
  46. The next to last one is probably supposed to be a Texas Longhorns logo... I think the "writing" on the lower right hand side is supposed to say "Wreck 'Em!"

    Oh, irony, you are so sweet.

    ReplyDelete
  47. When I quote your polite refusal I expect you to be there to defend me!
    I gestate... my children might block your site from my computer ;-Þ

    ReplyDelete
  48. Maybe the Longhorn CCC (patooie!) was done by an Aggie. They are the "Wrecking Crew" after all!

    Great post today! Perfect pun at the end. LOL!

    ReplyDelete
  49. The link to the LSD cake says it's a butterfly. Even knowing that, I'm not seeing anything but a uterus!

    ReplyDelete
  50. "Thanks, but I gestate." GROAN!!!

    :D

    ReplyDelete
  51. Honestly, what are they trying make? 'Cause uterus is what they all look like to me :P Wierder and wierder :)

    ReplyDelete
  52. Maybe these bakers secretly dream of becoming an OB/GYN, should the whole "cake decorating" gig not pan out..

    wv: nobetai Nobetai better lay a finger on my uterus cake!!! I gotta get through med school!

    ReplyDelete
  53. hahahahahahahahaha "Thanks but I gestate" I literally lol'd at work and almost choked on my salad.

    ReplyDelete
  54. @phantomessj (9:49 am): Thank you...if I ever put together an all girl band, I now have a name for it: The Psychedelic Uterus. Awesome!

    @Abby (11:11 am): If your "lady parts doctor" won't do it, you could always try Vagazzling! http://www.vajazzling.com/ (Uh...may not be safe for work...)

    ReplyDelete
  55. Uteri? Like fungus/fungi? There may have been an uncontrollable outburst at LSD Uterus... I love having to scroll down to see the entire post. It really adds to the shock value seeing the progression of awesomely bad, instead of seeing them all at once. :)

    ReplyDelete
  56. I know, I know!!! The last one is a uterine tissue sample under the microscope! Now they all relate to one another......if we're talking about uteruses of Texas Longhorns(?) Great "gestate" pun, BTW :)

    ReplyDelete
  57. LOL, seriously especially the "with sprinkles"
    (not even gonna mention daisy's)

  58. I think that last uterus has endometriosis...

    WV: crocke
    Professional bakers? What a crocke!

  59. WV: dewsh. Nothing left to say, certainly goes with today's wrecks.

  60. Yikes, I think I feel some cramping coming on..

    ReplyDelete
  61. #1 Stomach. With scepter and tiara. Took me a while to decode 'Princess Belle'. Not liking the gray spots, though.

    #2 If the spots on the first one are what I think, then a bowl of Pepto may be just what is needed afterward.

    #3 Even the Correction Cops are flummoxed by this one, it seems. Jen wins!

    #4 I see a lei -- which might be what was intended. Scary thought...

    #5 Huh. Is it a CCC (patooie!) if the frosting pavement has gaps in it? Perhaps the picture was taken before the final coat was applied.

    #6 'Congrats' if you can determine what this was intended to be -- and can get past the salmon mousse frosting and the general yuckiness of the CCC(p).

    ReplyDelete
  62. you have reason to be proud of the "gestate" pun... that's gold!

    the uterus piped onto the marshmallows took me a minute - because by then I couldn't even figure out what ELSE it could have been...

    ReplyDelete
  63. At last year's Austin Day of Sharing a demonstrator had a cutter design that he put on a cake and someone called out, "Everyone here is thinking that looks like a Longhorn!"

    I quietly thought, "Um, no, I thought it looked like a uterus."

    You're warping me. Awesome. :D

    ReplyDelete
  64. I'm two days overdue, so this post is strangely apropos for me. In any case, you gave this hormonal, weepy pregnant lady a much needed laugh. Thank you.

    ReplyDelete
  65. That first one didn't say "Princess Balls"? They missed an opportunity there.

    ReplyDelete
  66. Just goes to show... Uterus oughta be in pictures... (blinkblink)...

    WV - arewori: If you arewori'd about trusting wreckerators not to make your ccc look like a uterus, you have a good reason.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Uterus, but she hardly knew us.

    ReplyDelete
  68. I want a Fallopian tube! With sprinkles!

    ReplyDelete
  69. All of these "cakes" are CCCs! Anyways...

    #1: I'm initial guesses are a short, pudgy pink scarf or a pink crescent moon. I know they have nothing to do with "Princess" but that's all I've got.

    #2: Lips. Definitely.

    #3: I've got nothing.

    #4: I think they are also lips, but mainly do to the fact that there is a red outline (the sprinkles are on top of the red outline)

    #5: I think some kind of (white and orange) silhouette of a bull.

    #6: A polka dot purse.

    That is what I've come up with. Now if you'll excuse me, I must go dig up some graves to the bury the brain cells #3 has murdered.

  70. @Scotland:

    Hey, man, did you ever really look -- I mean REALLY look at your uterus? Far out.

    ReplyDelete
  71. I feel like Cake #1 is staring at me, and I really don't appreciate that kind of behavior from a uterus. Also, your "gestate" punchline resulted in me shouting "HA! Perfect!" quite loudly. Now I have a disturbing cake AND an attitude-y cat staring at me. Awesome.

    wv - emetin: "Oh, emetin a uterus cake, what are YOU eatin'?"

  72. "This is ridiculous" looks more like "uterus with ovaries" to me ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  73. oh. "hook 'em." i squinted and turned my head and pondered for many seconds trying to figure out why the uterus needed to "hork 'em."

    wv - tritc: the tritc is to get someone to think you decorate well. if you can't tritc them, you won't sell many ccc's. (patooie!)

  74. I LOVE these cakes, but I'm an OB/Gyn so I have an excuse...

  75. gestate...you slay me. Thanks for some superb wrecks and even better writing. Love!

  76. You are wrong! They aren't uteri (sp?) but panties! Now put on your big girl panties and deal with it!

    I can only think that perhaps someone's biological clock has alarmed suddenly? Ovary well, perhaps not, but we all gestate and digest that idea. I am still rolling on the floor spraying ice tea nasally. Excellent blog today. Thanks!

  79. A POX UPON THINE FLESH-COLORED BAG!

    *ROFL* seriously! DO these people have uterus shaped cake pans or what? (and I'm not exactly a Longhorns fan but that cake is a total disgrace)

  83. Well, if you tire of making uterus cakes, you could always switch crafts...

    Yes, I knit one of these for my best friend after her hysterectomy. After she stopped laughing, she was much appreciative.

  84. The first one looks like it's supposed to be a pashmina. Just saying.

    ReplyDelete
  85. Gestate... ROTFL!! I'm going to be giggling about that one all night. Love it!! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  86. I love posts like this where I literally laugh out loud over and over and over again. Thanks, Jen!

    ReplyDelete
  87. Methinks we need a "uterus cakes" tag, given how many cakes out there unintentionally (or intentionally) resemble the lady-bits.

    ReplyDelete
  88. De-sgusting! Maybe they were driven around in the trunk of a car at 50 mph first.

    ReplyDelete
  89. So, is the Longhorn cake a U.T.-rus?

    ReplyDelete
  90. I can not imagine what the Uterus on LSD is really supposed to be other than what you wrote. I tried to think of something else that it could be, but uterus, uterus, uterus is all I can see.

    ReplyDelete
  91. Thanks for the perfectly timed laugh! Once again, your post coincidest with what I'm studying in nursing school...and now for something completely different (sigh)...gestational diabetes.

    ReplyDelete
  92. "Uterus with sprinkles" - hahahaha!!! best quote ever!

    ReplyDelete
  93. I just had an idea! Maybe if I buy a uterus cake it will help me get pregnant! LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  94. OMG! I think "Uterus on LSD" actually is a uterus! I see uterus, vagina, ovaries... I think I can even see the cervix. Maybe it's a cake for a obstetrician's conference? 70's disco themed conference?

    ReplyDelete
  95. Wow. I started laughing after reading the comment on the first one and it only got worse (better?) from there. Thanks for putting a smile on my uterus..face! I mean face!

  97. All good little Texas Longhorns learn during sex ed in school that the uterus with ovaries & fallopian tubes attached resembles our beloved Bevo (the Longhorn's) head. Hook'em!

    ReplyDelete
  98. "This one looks like you...with breasts". I am glad that everyone else is seeing uteri (?). I love the LSD one the best. I too wonder what it was supposed to be.

    Brilliant entry, as usual King Friday.

    wv: laudde: We laudde the humor and puns that are part of Jen's repritore.

    ReplyDelete
  99. I *think* the psychedelic uterus is supposed to be a rainbow in the sky, and the yellow cupcakes are pots of gold? I mean, St Patty's day did just happen so it's very likely there's a couple of ugly rainbow cakes that nobody bought still laying around. If that's not it, uh.... I got nothing.

    Also, I sent a friend of mine the bare image, no name attached to it or nothing and he said "a vague symbol for the female reproductive system?" Swears he didn't check the site first.

  100. Not one single "paTOOEY!"? You are slipping.

  101. oooh silly cupcake cakes, they'll getcha every time.

    also, i am reading a novel called perdido street station and it has a lot of steampunk elements in it, which made me think of you. haven't finished it yet, but thus far i recommend it if you like fantasy!

    ReplyDelete
  102. Does this mean if anyone eats one of those "cakes" they get pregnant? Lol. Scary. Maybe they want to encourage pregnancy by..erm having people eat those horrifying things. That or encourage people to just avoid sex altogether. Evil wreckerators.

  103. The first one......lumpy space princess? Maybe?

  107. @Sharon - oh, is THAT what it's supposed to be?! Seriously, that one does look like a uterus!

    @LillyW - the plural of uterus is uteri.


    The "pucker up" one is definitely meant to be lips. So is the sprinkle one (look only at the lines the sprinkles make - it's lips with really long smile-line extensions) - but looks way more like a uterus!! Last one is definitely meant to be a handbag, but I agree with the commenter who said it looks like underwear (I have some that are exactly the reverse - black with pink polka dots!)

    The LSD one, probably a butterfly? Or maybe a happy face (:D type) - orange is the eyes, whole inner area is the open happy mouth. That would be a Pokemom or alien or something's happy face, of course... maybe a Na'vi, since it's blue with orange eyes?

    The first one - I really don't know either, maybe a beauty queen sash? That'd make more sense without the scepter, but if it was supposed to have to do with Disney's Belle (which is what that word under Princess is - Belle) it should be yellow. It doesn't really look that much like a uterus either, though - the stomach idea is closer, hah!

  108. Ahh...this is a horrible game to play when you're already hallucinating!

    I'm not all joking. I didn't take anything TO hallucinate. I took two things, under doctor's orders, to help get rid of a medical condition. They are now helping me find two other things because both of these meds, AND walking Pneumonia itself, can all cause hallucinations. Joy joy! My first trip and it wasn't even planned!

    (OK Kids, by the way, trips like this aren't worth paying for or worse yet risking your life over. My "visions" today included a feint little circle of light across the room, which scared me cause I thought I might be heading for it, feint pastel shapes that were about a decipherable as these cakes, pink splotches that stayed in my sight wherever I was look, and twirling letters sort of superimposed on a shirt on the floor across the room. And though all but the first were pretty tame I've had panic attacks with this too. If you've ever been to a lazer show...this was nothing like it (lazer show was much cooler...heck, discovery store is much cooler).

    (Staying anonymous because well...medical stuff. Have fun with this so long as you don't use my name. It is true, but more than I want to share with anyone who might know me or meet me or spam me. ).

  110. cake 3...how could you not see the uterus as you were decorating!

  111. The "uterus with sprinkles" is clearly supposed to be lips. I don't know how the two could ever be mixed up.

    ReplyDelete
  112. Are you sure you don't have a pun in the oven?

  113. General Foods International Coffees Suisse Mocha Cafe spew all over the monitor upon the first instance of "uterus". Ensuing mad laughter wakes neighbor at 6AM.

  117. I gotta agree - pure uterus-r-us-.....es....?
    Nothing wrong with making an ode/homage to the female reproductive elements - but why in cakey form?
    Maybe it should be in the "muffin" form - ccc?

    ReplyDelete
  118. Actually, that last one could be a bovine (cow) uterus-- the dots look like placentomes.

    ReplyDelete
  119. my son thinks the first pink thing is a SOCK. could be... and his take on the last thing is apparently a SWEATER to him. he does have an amazing imagination :) thanks for the laughs! these make my own cakes look so incredible in comparison.
