Yep, Mr. Bonehead here suuure is happy. How happy, you ask? Happy enough to say, "Look, ma! No hands!"
Dorei, just tell the kids it's a levitation trick. Which really startles the pumpkin.

Step One: Cut a Hole in the Pumpkin
Friday, October 30, 2009
I can't think of a more Wrecktastic harbinger of Halloween happiness than this guy:

I see a naked snowman trying to be modest...
Gives a whole new meaning to "pumpkin patch" ewwww
That pumpkin looks pretty surprised....
Almost fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard. What a way to start a rainy, foggy, Friday.
You said soooooo much in such a few words.
Glad I wasn't drinking my coffee when that picture came up.
AWESOME.
Oh dear... If not for the snowman head and the horribly placed pumpkin the skeleton would actually be pretty good!
OMG!!!!!!
Why does Mr. Bonehead have such a big neck ? I feel like he has two...oh, nevermind.
All I could think was, boner. Sorry.
And just think---if it does not sell, they can replace the pumpkin with an oreo cookie and they are ready for Snowman !
The cake was funny enough on your own, but your caption took it to a whole other level. So hilarious!
Okay, now that is disturbing. And what's up with the big round neck? I think he swallowed a pumpkin at the same time as he seems to be "passing" a pumpkin. Awkward placement, for the win!
Am I the only one that started humming "D**** in a box" from SNL?
DUH! I didn't see the title!
Well, glad to know I wasn't the only one. lol
I'm thinking something along the lines of skeleton - boner....nah, nevermind!
Beth
LOL - that pumpkin sure does look startled, doesn't he?
That pumpkin has a really surprised look on it's face...
Looks like Mr. Bones has goiter problems as well. I blame having to concentrate so hard to keep that jack o'lantern afloat.
Happy Halloween!
Why on earth does he have 2 heads???
Best. Title. Ever.
WV- talitte: the skeleton used his unmentionables talitte the jack o'lantern.
surprise pumpkinsecks?
Wow. all the comments about the size of mr boner's neck, and nobody noticed that he's wearing a bow-tie!
I think the whole layout might actually be done on purpose by some sick twisted wreckerator out there.
Not to mention the skeleton has some sort of glandular problem...
Wow. You have to wonder what is in the heads of the bakers...Are they just underpaid high school kids who are testing what they can get away with, or did someone really make that and not look at or think about the implications....
Wow, I didn't realize goiters remained on the skeleton!
Thanks for the laugh this morning!!
WV: bagon
Bacon with a cold, of course
I'll grant that it is kinda cute if you look at it with a totally innocent mind.
I do NOT have a totally innocent mind. >:D
Mr. Snowman/Skeleton seems to have a serious goiter problem.
That wreckorator HAD to know what they were doing with this. They just HAD to. There is no other explanation I can come up with for it!
Wow...yeah just wow.
Thanks for the laugh!
I'm glad you gave this guy a post of his own. He deserves it.
This is Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg's next SNL short. D**k in a Gourd.
I'm not sure about that pumpkin, is that an Oh! face or an OOOOhh face?
I appreciate the less sexually-charged entries.
This is a low kind of humor... disappointing when you are capable of so much better. Don't go for the cheap laughs.
A holiday version for JT on SNL...
All I could see was that goiter. Ew.
poor pumpkin.
i mean, really.
there should be laws.
Oh my . . . that's just bad.
I guess Andy Samberg and Justin Timberlake can make a new version for Halloween "____ in a Pumpkin"
Never mind the goiter, I don't think that what's implied to be behind the pumpkin remains with the skeleton, either! Sorry, guys.
Is that a pumpkin in your pants or are you just happy to see me? ;D
Immediately reminded me of Michael's costume on The Office last night!
Step 1: Cut a hole in the pumpkin
Step 2: Put your junk in that pumpkin
Step 3: Make her open the pumpkin
Happy Halloween folks! Can't wait to meet you in ATL Jen & John!
WV: eczarita - margarita style drink made from pumpkins that have previously had holes cut in them.
funny cake...but getting weary of the sexual connotation...seems like we're getting a lot of it lately :(
SAY, is that why the skelton has such a happy face?
Thank you for the biggest laugh I've had in weeks!
XD
This looks like some sick amalgamations of holidays. Snowman, skeleton and pumpkin? Christmas, Halloween and.... Thanksgiving? Yea, let's go with that...
Whaa??
WV: aembedp... I'm not even going to try...
This isn't a wreck as much as it is metaphysical perfection.
It also looks like he has a giant goiter...
OMG....that is great!!!!
Wow.
What a cake. Haha
~Amy B-H
That skeleton has a tragic case of Snowman Neck.
Teddy-
This is a blog. About bad cake decoration. If you want highbrow, go read some Balzac.
Okay, this entry, especially the title, had me laughing out loud for five minutes. One of my favorites.
The look on that pumpkin's face is priceless!
The title was enough to make me smile!
its a skeleton with a snowman's head. I dont get what the wreckerator was trying to do here... but its a little PG13 to be for sale at a store like that! LOL lol i love how you said "it starteles the pumpkin" LMAO that was so funny. This is just rediculous. Whats with the extra ball underneath the poor snowmans head too? whats that for? i dont have a bone that looks like that underneath my skull..
Maybe he's got a GOITER
I think this is hilarious - I saw the title first and thought "this is going to be good" and it was! I would totally buy this cake for my party just for the surprised looks everyone would give it!
wv: slystic - how the skeleton sneaks up on the pumpkin!
This reminds me a video I saw once. However, being a family blog, I won't go there. :)
OMG, I just had to close my office door I'm laughing so hard.. The pumpkin's look of surprise...
ROFL
I thought skeletons didn't have unmentionables.
(for those who are familiar with Veggitales!) POOR BOB THE TOMATO!!!!
I think maybe the decorator initially made the "neck" as the head, then realized there was no neck, got the bright idea to just make the first head the neck, add another head, and then presto, bingo! No one will ever know!...
And let's face it people, sex is pretty funny, and this website is far from lewd. If you can't bring yourself to sink to our level every so often, then you're missing out! :)
I also want to say thank you John for handling people who dont appreciate "sexual innuendos" so well. You said it perfectly. If it bothers you- then you may have to consider blogging elsewhere. THANK YOU JOHN! I LOVE CAKEWRECKS!!
FROSTY?!
Oh great, now I have to be embarrassed when I ask the pharmacist for a pumpkin!
^..^
So funny! I think I need to go find that SNL video.
Clearly he died of goiter . ..
hmmm it looks like mr skeleton has three "heads" lol one doesnt have a face though!
One, cut a hole in a pumpkin! Two, put your coccyx in the pumpkin!
I love how the cake wrecker obviously made his head right on the shoulders and decided it didn't look right, so (s)he put a new head on top!
This reminds me of Michael Scott's Halloween costume this year.
Long-time reader, first-time commenter. ;)
First, the post title made me laugh out loud. Love it.
Second, it's so wrong.
I heart Cake Wrecks!
Maybe the baker thought he needed an adam's apple, realized that it looked like a red bell pepper, so then covered it up with an overglazed Krispy Kreme donut...what? That sounds too complicated? Well, apparently so is cake decorating!
Good SNL reference ;)
Also your book got mentioned along with a few classic "wreck" pictures on WGN in Chicago this morning!!
Maybe the decorator was inspired by this picture.
http://www.thedailygreen.com/green-homes/latest/recycled-halloween-costume-470708
Can a skeleton still...uh, do that?!? I sort of thought that would go away with all of the flesh, yanno? Good to know they can still get theirs!
Becky
Ha ha ha!
The bow tie is a nice touch. Adds a bit of class...maybe he's a Chipendales skeleton?
Sorry, my first link didn't show the right picture. Maybe the decorator was inspired by this picture.
http://www.thedailygreen.com/cm/thedailygreen/images/great-pumpkin-lg.jpg
Quite possibly the best title ever.
i only just discovered "D*** in a Box" just yesterday. and when i saw your title before the rest of the post, i fell over laughing.
oh wow...thanks for a lovely start to a dreary-looking day. :D
You had me at the title of this post!!! AHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
At first all I saw was that goiter (sp?) on the skeleton's neck. Then I saw the pumpkin....too funny!
Probably the Wreckerator just didn't know how to draw a pelvic bone. . .
best title EVER. It's honestly funnier than the picture! I think I just peed myself a little, reading the title and seeing the cake!
Adds new meaning to the term "boned".
I guess if you're a snowman, there's no better way to die than while getting some good ole fashioned pumpkin lovin'.
The SNL reference made me laugh out loud and forward the link to my husband, who is a huge fan of that skit! Awesome. Just awesome.
:snicker: I took one look at the thumbnail and thought, "oh no. She didn't ..."
This made my Halloween eve!
I was gonna try to make a joke about bones & surprised pumpkins, but none were funnier than the picture....
yikes.
To those of you complaining about the sexual innuendo,
First, allow me to say that I am truly surprised that this is still an issue with some readers. Frankly, there has always been a certain amount of innuendo on Cake Wrecks which most folks find funny. I would understand if there was blatant obscenity, but Jen makes every effort to keep it understated and I am certain that no child would ever see anything other than a skeleton holding a pumpkin on today's post.
In addition, I have been told that it is used more frequently lately yet the last post that would be considered risque was more than two weeks ago.
Let me end with this: I don't like swearing. Because of this, I don't frequent sites where swearing is common. You should know by now that there will be the occasional innuendo used on this site. It has always been here. If it bothers you to the point where you can no longer visit the site, than I am truly sorry and wish you the best.
Sincerely,
john
That's not a wreck! That's just funny!!
Obscene or silly? I can't decide. What I want to know is, how did the *jack* o'lantern get there in the first place???
Can't...get...that...song..out of my head.
Another amazing post, guys. Thanks!
I don't even have a comment that hasn't already been made, but my WV is 'hookers'.
Awesome.
wtf? holy CRAP!
The wreckerator had to know what they were doing. I mean, how could you not? Really.
And I wonder if they were trying to create a skull shaped like this (http://school.discoveryeducation.com/clipart/clip/skull.html) and just had some problems with the execution, hence snowman goiter head...
That. Is. Awesome.
As is the title to this post. ::golf claps:: Well done, Jen. Well done.
I have to hope that this was deliberate, or else *again* I have to worry about the complete lack of awareness that these bakers seem to have! Or maybe this skeleton is part raccoon?
And I can't believe anyone would find this 'sexually charged' - it's about as sexually charged as the 'nudge nudge wink wink' Monty Python sketch from 1969 (ooer!). Keep it up, John and Jen!
A new SNL skit perfect for Halloween? My *&%$ in a gourd?
oh. my. goodness.
am i the only one who got the title, lol. like justin said..."every single holiday a d*ck in a box" =)
At first I thought the skull, the goiter and the pumpkin were indicators that this was a CCC, but upon a second glance I see that it's a sheet cake!
Yeah, this one was a spit take! :-)
And nice post, John. This is no raunchier than most other bogs, in fact my nephew has worse on his Bookmarks than this stuff.
And a lot of the time sex is just hilarious.
Best obscure pop-culture referencing title Eh-ver.
What's with the two ... eh ... heads?
Oh.My.
I think Mr. Skeleton interrupted.
The title of this post is BRILLIANT. Well done. Also.. what the heck is up with the skeleton's... mmm.. neck bone?
That skeleton looks entirely too happy about having a pumpkin placed in that area.
"Imogen said...
That skeleton has a tragic case of Snowman Neck.
Teddy-
This is a blog. About bad cake decoration. If you want highbrow, go read some Balzac."
Imogen, good job on taking the highbrow to the lowbrow. Alternative perverted pronunciation for the win! +12 internets for you!
Honestly, I think the *pumpkin* looks entirely too happy to be appropriate.
Awesome post title. Jen, I bow to you.
And everybody else, obviously that's not a goiter - it's Spaceship Earth.
Hahahaha! After I read the blog, the title made *perfect* sense! Jen, your humor is wickedly sharp.
Look forward to seeing you in Atlanta, barring, y'know... any unforeseen... Um... I'm not gonna even say it.
no, i also thought of D*** in a Box from SNL....oh jen, the things you think and inspire:)
one heck of a prostate. although being a skeleton ...
LOL Tigerwolf and Shannon! And thanks, again, Jen and John!
While you focused on the oddly placed pumpkin, I was wondering why part of a snowman is sitting on top of a skeleton. So many ways to go with this wreck!
Ah, this skeleton is suffering from a case of "PPP": perfect pumpkin placement.
WV-chings Cha-chings! Goiter skeletons with modesty pumpkin cakes are money in the bank!
(Insert every form of laughter mentioned in "I Love to Laugh")
hahah! This Soo reminds me of Micheal (from The Office's) Halloween costume last night.. oh my gosh
Saw the article in this week's People about your book. Way to go!!
Um....
WV: uncepil. Yeah, I think that fits.
Oh my. That's all I can say. Oh my.
Personally, I think that pumpkin looks a little turned on. And what's with the skeleton's neck?
I don't remember that part of class where we learned about our other skull.
Nat
What a great way to end a Friday. The smug, self-satisfied expression on the skeleton, and the too-perfect look of surprise on the pumpkin... I think the bar for wreckerators everywhere has just been raised. (I think that just about every week, yet every week, the wrecks keep coming in new, twisted, horrible forms.)
--kate
Looks like he has a goiter...among other things.
WV: barecot
Mr. Skeleton was barecot when the kids came to visit.
I think there was nothing sexual implied in this creation... the baker just had NO idea what a pelvis looks like so s/he thought, 'hey a pumpkin would fit there!' I mean, look at the neck. An obvious biology class fail.
Wow!! where do they find the decorators? that's hilarious. LOL
Trying to stop laughing long enough to type....
John-Hubby, great post. I agree whole-heartedly! I adore well done risque humor and y'all are *champions* of it. I've never seen this blog go what I would consider "over the line."
Though I suppose everyone's got a slightly different idea of what's over and what isn't. And that's fine. Still, at the end of the day it's J&J's blog and J&J's call on what's appropriate. I, for one, hope y'all never change your style--it's indelibly YOUR STYLE and it's certainly what *I'm* here for!
I have to admit, while sexually toned comments may annoy some, I think this is HILARIOUS! There is little else that can be said about this cake when taking the pumkpins placement and expression into account. I lean ooooooooh face, but thats just me. Course it's hard for me to assume I know whats happening in the pumpkins mind.
Keep up the good work wreckies!
LOL!! It is now at the point where if I break out laughing, my husband assumes I'm looking at Cake Wrecks. You're awesome.
Haha I didn't even see the title at first. This may cause a whole new disturbing trend in Halloween costumes...
But why has he got two heads, or at least a giant tumourous bone for a neck?
WHOA, at first glance I thought this was a CCC! I mean, that would have at least been understandable, if not forgivable.
But... it's not! *boggles*
Haha!!
And why is the skeleton's neck so thick?
HAHAHA! Cut a hole in a box! I mean a pumpkin! A pumpkin!
Thanks, Jen!
-Julie
10 points to the first reader to turn in the Thanksgiving edition: snowman/skeleton throws over the pumpkin for a turkey. Or do you already have one of those ready to go, Jen?
Absolutely priceless.
SNL reference = WIN!
OK, that is just wrong on so many levels... either the Wreckerator wasn't thinking or needs to get their brain out of the gutter pronto!
Okay, I could be wrong, but I'm starting to think that people are decorating cakes specifically for your Cake Wrecks site....
I've never seen a skeleton with a goiter problem before. He needs more iodine in his diet.
OMG! I laughed so hard I swallowed my gum. So hilarious, and the title....so perfect. Now I have that song in my head. LOL!
This has to be deliberate. I wouldn't be shocked if some wreckorator was trying to see what they could get pass the censors. This is off the same level as the infamous fireman cake. You can see how dirty it is, but you're afraid to say anything in case you're the only one in the room with a dirty mind. Very, very funny.
Never saw a skeleton with a goiter before!!!
I just had to post because of my awesome WV.
reashock: where that pumpkin got his surprise!
MC from NZ
Ha! If you ignore the top skeleton head and look at the neck as the head, it makes the skeleton look like he's bending forward to really "go" for it!
Intentional cake wreck surely LOL
My favorite part is that he has a snowman face. If it doesn't sell, they can just cover him with more white icing and sell him as a "winter" treat.
I mean, he's not even pretending to hold the pumpkin in place.
The pumpkin looks "pleasantly" surprised...
Don't listen to the party poopers, this was hysterical! You never become low-brow Jen, you just call 'em like you see 'em! Once again you made my day.
People need to lay off the criticism of the entries here. Do you not get it? JEN AND JOHN DO NOT MAKE THESE CAKES. They just comment on them. If you don't like the site, don't look at it.
The title of this post just made me day.
I think they had a Reno 911 episode exactly like this, except replacing the skeleton with a hillbilly.
I would totally have bought that Happy Birthday cake for my mother (who has a Halloween birthday).
Sure she'd disown me, but it would be worth it. :)
Someone in the bakery has been watching too much SNL. But the look on that poor pumpkin's face . . .
I think someone wrote a song about that didn't they? Its my d&#* in a pumpkin. Oh no wait, that was a box... :)
The commentary made a good wreck 100x funnier.
Also, snowman head? How hard is a skull?
Cake Wrecks was mentioned on BBC America's Graham Norton show....I was exceited to day the least.
For those of you who have seen Fletch, I can just hear the pumpkin singing "Moon river.."
The title of the post said it all xDDD And the expression on the pumpkin's face really makes it!
Simply amazing.
It's hard to pretend I'm working when I read the title of the post, look down at the picture and bust out laughing!
I laughed so hard at the happy skeleton posing with his pumpkin that I cried. No joke.
John and Jen, I look forward to the sexual innuendos. Keep 'em coming. (no pun).
Bwahahaha!
Alexis (Socialology)
My other pet peeve!
Anthropomorphication
gets it in the butt.
Aaaaah! I had totally forgotten about the "First, cut a hole in a melon" website until I saw this. My husband and I have spent the last ten minutes laughing our butts off. "Next, put it in the microwave."
I see a snowman and a pumpkin on legs.
Lol. =0)
LOVE the title!!
This one was obviously from a naughty bakery.
