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.

As always your comments crack me up..so typical of an American holiday and overkill!
But hey, noone does it better than us. And is the eagle sitting on a plate waiting to be served up?
Oh my goodness. Short and to the point, hilarious!
Someone tell Dubya that those stars aren't peyote buttons.
I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. The cake is hilarious, but your comment threw it over the top, and this cake needed to be thrown somewhere.
lol. show the afgans why we love our contry so much.
Is the round thing in the background one of those cork drink coasters?
Those stupid plastic 'plaque' things are often auto-shipped to the grocery store bakeries for each holiday. They are all ridiculously hideous. And yet you have to use them up somehow. Sorry....
The eagle (and background) is a plastic lay on. The fact that there are two ballon clusters, plus two picks and a lay-on on a 1/8 sheet cake that has been airbrushed REALLY spells overkill. I'm surprised there wasn't writing also!
Late post...but don't you see that the eagle is SO PATRIOTIC that it poops flags?
i can only find three words for this cake before laughing to death.
Oh my god.
*crawls back onto bed after laughing herself out of it* Looking at it another way... it seems the eagle is pooing out the flag?
Housemdfan1-
As in, "I'm so patriotic, I s**t American flags"?
Oh, good times. My stomach hurts from laughter.
Who are the mothers
who wrecked this tribute to
Land of our Fathers?
Beat them! Beat them with
choking hazards! Summon Sam
the Eagle! To arms!

Seriously, is word verification even trying anymore?
