ReplyDeleteThe resemblance IS creepy.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is one ugly monkey!
ReplyDeleteThat face is scary! But I've never liked Seinfeld, so maybe that's why I think so.
ReplyDeleteWV: velify-- Sino-American for "verify"
what's the deal with Seinfeld having boobs and a tail?
ReplyDeleteI would love a copy of your book! And an autographed copy to boot? Awesome!:)
ReplyDeleteI love this site and I check it every morning. And sometimes in the afternoon too, just in case.:) Thanks for all the laughs. :)
Too funny! But I can't figure out the two big white boobs, oops, I mean blobs...Kiki B
ReplyDeletePlease enter me in your contest! Would absolutely love to win your book. Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteWhat's the deal with CCCs (patooie!) always making me want to reach for the insulin?
ReplyDeleteUncanny!
ReplyDeleteMy 2 year old saw the cake and said, "Funny...cake...monkey!" He didn't have a comment for the Seinfeld picture, though. :)
ReplyDelete-Mary
ME ME ME! I so want one of these books. (but am way too cheap to buy it for myself)
ReplyDeleteNaw, there's absolutely no resemblance. Now, if Jerry were sporting a tail...
ReplyDeleteWhat the heck species of monkey is that supposed to be? It looks like the limbs & tail are attached with velcro and can be re-arranged at will. I want one!
Wow. My son who loves monkeys was even confused by the atrocious monkey CCC.
ReplyDeleteWow! It is NOT just you. The similarities are uncanny. And your impression was spot on, as well.
ReplyDeleteYou have to have a certain persona to be a star, you know, and I don't have that. I'm a banana. ~ Harvey Korman
ReplyDeleteJust one more cupcake here. And a little extra frosting there and voilà!!! Perfection. Yikes!
ReplyDeletebaahaahaaahaaa!
ReplyDeleteThat was Great...
I want to win something. Please? I lost at Trivia last night (sad face), went from first to third in the final round (wiping away tear), thanks.
Hope you don't go too bananas with your week long birthday celebration! If you start running around the house in your monkey suit, I am running for the hills.
ReplyDeleteYikes - what's up with his 3rd leg? Just sayin...
ReplyDeleteHa Ha Ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove it!
I'd love a calendar to help me get through the work week!
ReplyDeletetrying again....my four kids and I love looking at your blog everyday....I know they would love to have your book
ReplyDeleteweeeiiird.
ReplyDeleteMy husband once had a boss who introduced him at a special event as "the world's best second banana". What a cake wreck that could be...
ReplyDeleteWV: mersi--what said boss would have been saying if I'd been able to get my hands around his throat.
Please enter me in your contest! I love your site!!!
ReplyDeleteThe resemblance is so obvious, and so frightening! I feel sorry for the poor kid who ended up with this wreck.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is too much fun. I only wish I could see the pictures at work. Darned overzealous school district filter!
Last chance to win?! Oh no!
ReplyDeleteWhat's the *deal* with bananas? They are basically the perfect fruit, prepackaged with no seeds to spit. That's the deal!
ReplyDeleteLove those CWs!
twins! and what's up with the..um..belly of that monkey?
ReplyDeleteRing ring ring ring ring ring ring
ReplyDeleteBanana phone!
That's just bananas.
ReplyDelete"And what is with all the poo flinging?"
ReplyDeleteSeinfeld monkey is almost as scary as that "Bee Movie" Seinfeld Bee.
That is one strong resemblance! Although, I bet Seinfeld would get a kick out of it!
ReplyDeleteWould love to be entered into your contest.
Lets try one last time.
ReplyDeleteUmmmm.... my mind went another way with the middle of the "cake" there. A not very child friendly way.
ReplyDeletemichelle c.
The resemblance is waaaaay too creepy! Eek! -Andrea C.
ReplyDeleteThis blog is legit the highlight of my day!
ReplyDeleteI like winning!
ReplyDeleteTo me that looks more like Jay Leno.
ReplyDeleteI would love a calendar!
ReplyDeleteSad bananas. That is all.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I really want to win!
Pick me! Pick me! Pick me! Please...sad puppy face, fluttering eye lashes...
ReplyDeleteThe resemblance is uncanny.
ReplyDeleteThe resemblance is uncanny! Kramer was so much funnier than Jerry though.
ReplyDeleteKramer: Yeah, but before I met up with her, I stopped to look at the monkeys, when all of a sudden I am hit in the face with a banana peel. I turn and look and there is this monkey really laughing it up. Then someone tells me that he
did it. Well, I pick up the banana peel and I wait for that monkey to turn around. And then I *whap* let him have it.
Jerry: Kramer, you threw a banana peel at a monkey?
Kramer: Well, he started it!
Jerry: It's a monkey, Kramer!
Kramer: Well, he pushed my buttons, I couldn't help it, Jerry.
Jerry: Well, I still think it's wrong.
Kramer: Alright, alright, fine. You take the monkey's side, alright, go ahead.
At least it didn't look like Kramer...
ReplyDeleteWould love to win. I love your website. I share it with everybody while we are sitting around waiting for our daughters at gymnastics. They love it.
ReplyDeleteThese BANANAS are makin' me thirsty!
ReplyDeleteWow! they look so much alike!
ReplyDeleteand because I LOVE this blog, and Jerry Seinfeld here is a funny monkey joke:
Q. What do you call a 2,000 pound gorilla?
A. Sir
haha hope I made you lol enough to win a book or calendar!
Used to work at a theatre. Jerry Seinfeld did his act there one time. I had to stand guard so the incoming personnel wouldn't go down to the dressing room where he was at. As the personnel were walking in, they asked me what I was doing there. When I told them, their attitude was "As if!" He had a sold out house, though.
ReplyDeleteyou guys are so awesome!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to say that, although I don't post comments, I have read your blog almost since the beginning. I work in a book store and it was really nice to see your book for sale there when it came out. Congrats on the success. :)
ReplyDeleteI agree... they could be twins!
ReplyDeletewv: uttur
ReplyDeleteThe simian CCC is an "uttur" fail. I'm just sayin'.
I'm always wary of food that could kill me, and that includes bananas. That's one of the scariest cakes you've ever posted.
ReplyDeleteThat is one ugly monkey I agree!!! And the CCC is AWFUL too....
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to win a calendar..
For what it's worth, I did read that in Seinfeld's voice, so your impression is good enough for me!
ReplyDeleteWell, you what THE DOCTOR says:
ReplyDelete"Always take a banana to a party, Rose. Bananas are good."
(Right now I am listening to the fun song, "I can't decide" by the Scissor Sisters. I love going on You Tube and watching The Master sing it to The Doctor!)
What a resemblance.....
ReplyDeleteKelly L
from Oklahoma
I mean, can you just find a banana lying on the ground? And if you did, would you eat the banana? What's the deal?
ReplyDeleteWhat needs to be done to end the era of the CCC (patooie!)? Its getting absurd. (but thats part of the hilarity, I suppose...)
ReplyDeletei have to say, the first thing i thought of when seeing that money was "holy crap, those are a huge pair of . . ."
ReplyDeleteor do i just have an incredibly dirty mind??
-katie, from toronto
i deserve to finally win and i *heart* bananas. that is all.
ReplyDeleteThe comparsion is both hilarious and creepy. I can't stop staring at that monkey face (the cake, I mean).
ReplyDeleteHow many legs does this monkey have? Is it a spider monkey?!
ReplyDeletethat is a weird resemblance! and that calendar sounds awesome! [:
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm... maybe his wife can write a banana cupcake book next!
ReplyDeleteI *DO* want to win! I do I do I do!
ReplyDeleteOMG, that's scary!
ReplyDeleteSeinfeld endorses bananas -not mutant monkeys. It's cool, though. Common misconception.
ReplyDeleteEgad that must be a GM monkey. Nature can't do that!
ReplyDeleteMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm cake.
ReplyDeleteNo cake for you!
ReplyDeleteGotta love Seinfeld!!
ReplyDeleteThere must be a Seinfeld frilly-shirt CCC somewhere. *shudder* Wait, nevermind, I hope not.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the DEAL with that cake? What is it - cupcakes or a cake? The bakery needs to make up it's mind! And why does it look like me?
ReplyDeleteHmmmm....you post a picture of Seinfeld and you're also having a "contest"....hmmmmm. ;-D
LOL@Jen Price! Kramer is hilarious!
I'd like a wall calendar please. I am a faithful henchperson!
wv: othors. Jen and john (the hubby of Jen) are the othors of the Cake Wrecks blog.
You take the monkey's side, go ahead!
ReplyDelete(From this Seinfeld animation:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIc8BTe1de0 )
Jen - Look to the cookie!!
ReplyDeleteLOL that was good. Thank you Jen Price, that was spot on.
ReplyDeleteIt's fitting that you are giving away a calender that says "Nothing" from a post referencing a show about nothing. I'm just sayin'. :)
ReplyDeletelol! I see it.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing I'll give the wreckerator here is that s/he didn't resort to plastic flotsam for the face, it is made of actual icing. Though putting a human face on a monkey is mighty strange. And what's up with those appendages? The only identifiable one is the tail...
ReplyDeletePlease, please, please pick me for your totally awesome, fantabulous, out-of-this-world CakeWrecks calendar!
Thank you.
WV miterti - Miterti looks better than this poo-covered CCC (ptooie!).
Ooohhhh...Cupcake Jerry! YUMmy!
ReplyDeleteCupcake cake Seinfeld joke... you learn something new every day.
ReplyDelete"No Cupcake for You" **second worse Seinfeld impression
ReplyDeleteyou guys asking for witty comments the entire week is wearing me out!
ReplyDeletellama?
Thats all I got. If I win with this half hearted comment I'll be super embarassed (but happy)!
Oh my! That is so funny! It took me a second, but the more you look at it the more they look alike!
ReplyDeleteI love this site! It gets me through the workday :)
ReplyDeleteForget the face! I am trying to figure out it's legs....
ReplyDeleteMaybe Jerry likes monkey-banana-CCC's...not that there's anything wrong with that. Yada, yada, yada...blah, blah, blah.
ReplyDeletehaha that's A-Mazing! It does look like him!
ReplyDeleteNo more monkey business!!
ReplyDeleteKerri S
Hmmm, I was so distracted by the cake limbs pointing off in random directions that I didn't even notice the face. Wrecky on so many levels.
ReplyDeleteI would love a copy of the book or calendar. Cakewrecks.com is one of my sites I go to everyday. I love the monkey and Seindfeld. Pick me to win, i never win anything.
ReplyDeleteI've been reading cake wrecks for awhile now, and I would love a book! (I've recommended the site to a bunch of people too, including one person getting ready to pick wedding cakes.)
ReplyDeleteI can see it... if i squint... sideways... ;P
ReplyDeleteNot that there's anything wrong with that
Gol dangit, what does it take to win the autographed book!?? It would make my day to win! :)
ReplyDeleteGood post! Love the blogs and would love a goodie of some sort - calendar, book, etc....
ReplyDeleteAlly
uncanny!
ReplyDelete'nuff said.
My daughter loves monkeys, but even she didn't know what to think about this one!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the give away!
ReplyDeleteI SO want a calendar!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't guess there's any reward in trying to make sense out of a CCC, but the resemblance is pretty striking...
ReplyDeletePick me. Pick me. Said the banana or the poster wanting to win.
ReplyDeleteI'd love a book or a calendar! Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteIs that what they mean when they call it a "chunky monkey"?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giggle today.
ReplyDeleteI'd love a calendar! Love your site!
ReplyDeleteI hate it when they turn cupcakes into something like that. It's horrible!
ReplyDeleteI'm still trying to figure out which one's the cake!
ReplyDeleteThe popular "brown monkey with a banana" creeps me out...
ReplyDeleteI'd rather see a black and white capuchin with an orange, quite honestly. Highly underrated.
A co-worker just mentioned how she thought cupcake cakes were cute, and I about punched her.
ReplyDeleteBananas do your body good
ReplyDeletelast chance already? I hope I win. And you are sooooo right about the seinfeld/monkey guy!
ReplyDeleteWhat is the DEAL with cupcake cakes? They're not cupcakes, and they're not cakes!
ReplyDeleteLot of icing on the monkey there! And it does resemble Seinfeld.
ReplyDeleteNot what I wanted to see this morning!
ReplyDelete~Robin B.
That's the most horrendous monkey CCC (patooie!) you've ever posted.
ReplyDeleteUm, what's the deal with those... I don't even know what they are! Monkeyboobs??
ReplyDeleteHey Jerry, the jungle called. They're running out of bananas!
ReplyDeleteI'd love a copy of the book! :)
I was just calendar shopping yesterday. I was debating between Marc Chagal and chickens. A Cake Wrecks Calendar would certainly end the debate.
ReplyDeleteWould love a book or calendar!
ReplyDeleteSandra
I'm one of those folks who never understood the popularity of "Seinfeld." I think he and the monkey cake bear an excellent resemblance!
ReplyDeleteSandra
I think the Jerry Monkey is kinda cool.... Put me in for winning something :) Love you
ReplyDeleteVery close resemblance!
ReplyDeleteI always call my little boys my monkeys...I think this post has me wanting to change that nickname!! lol
ReplyDeleteHaHa! he's just trying to get away from the Bee movie lookalike. and yes, I so wants your book
ReplyDeleteThe fact that I did not win is Bananas! B-a-n-a-n-a-s!
ReplyDeleteI'm in agreement with Dr. Who, Bananas are good! These guys are scary, but Bananas are good!
ReplyDeleteI think the monkey has an arm coming out of its boobs/chest area. Just a little creepy. Maybe Jerry likes disfigured monkeys....
ReplyDeletePatedis. A dangerous infection of pate.
ReplyDeletepick me pick me pick me. is tht enough begging? Love, Love to you and John. You are both such awesome people. I enjoy both of your sites on a daily basis. "too steamy" indeed. Great wedding pics. Have a superb weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe extra long arm is freakin me out! And yes, there is some resemblance, wonder if it was on purpose?
ReplyDelete-Reagan
Maybe he's made of cupcakes too?
ReplyDeleteI think that monkey needs a manzier or is it a bro?
ReplyDeletecomment!
ReplyDeletei love seinfeld! not so sure abut the cake tho...
ReplyDeletekimberley
I'm ordering that cake for Festivus.
ReplyDeleteI bought a copy of Cake Wrecks for my sister-in-law for Christmas, but I fell in love with it and am having a hard time convincing myself to give it up. Money is too tight to buy a second one, but if I won one then I wouldn't have to have this inner struggle.....
ReplyDeleteOkay, enough of the pity party. Life goes on, and I am sure I will talk myself into giving it to her by Christmas.
Love the Seinfeld monkey!!
flededge: I got nothing....maybe it is a new kind of ledging product?
Hah! It does look like him.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, it would make my week to win the book (or the calendar)!
ReplyDeleteI'll spare you the pity-me story, but just know this gal goes through a lot, and loves a good laugh!
I'm torn between commenting, "Yadda yadda yadda," or "NO CAKE FOR YOU." So here's both.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the monkey is just trying to network at a conference.
ReplyDeletehttp://sidsavara.com/personal-productivity/how-to-to-network-at-conferences
I would be ecstatic to get a calendar. My husband gave me your book last Christmas and I've shared it with all my friends. It is one of my favorites!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI like to eat eat eat eapeels and beneenees...and I'd also like a book...and cake. Wait this isn't santa's lap...sorry sir!
ReplyDeleteK.Rose
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
ReplyDeleteNow I need to go clean coffee off my keyboard. (Winning something for all my pain and suffering would be nice too. I mean, that was good coffee!)
*batting eyes*
ReplyDeleteEven though that never works, but a girls gotta try! BEtter then flashing you, no one needs that.
;-)
I would love one of those books!!
ReplyDeleteplease
ReplyDeleteI'd love a calendar to go with my book!
ReplyDeleteyou're way more funny than jerry seinfeld.
ReplyDeleteGone bananas! Back soon.
ReplyDeleteBeing diabetic, I tended to stay away from the cake aisle at the grocery store. However since becoming addicted to this site, I can't resist looking for Cake Wrecks and this pseudo-technophobe may even splurge on a camera phone just to record the wrecks I find.
Whomever invented cupcake cakes deserves to be dressed in a clown suit... shot out of a cannon....into the Pacific Ocean....near an island inhabited by cannibals.
Hey Dud, does this clown taste funny to you?
Sometimes I think decorators say, "Eh, it's just for a kid. They won't know the difference."
ReplyDeleteBut hey, they're kind of right, kids today don't know who (or what) Seinfeld is.
Sammie
p.s. I'm also imagining how horrifying this would be if it were a flying monkey...
It's Jerry Seinfeld's newest role as Banana Council Spokesperson.
ReplyDeleteNever having watched Seinfeld, I have to resort to another sitcom of the 90's.
ReplyDeleteCould that monkey BE any more disformed?
I would love win an autographed copy of your book! I think cakewrecks and epbot are SUPER awesome... In fact, in my application to Princeton, I'm listing cakewrecks as my favorite website. (true story)
I'm quite intrigued by this Seinfeld- headed monkey's limb placement. Not quite sure how that monkey moves around with such wackado limbs. . . or how it copes with a hand in the middle of its' arm.
ReplyDelete-Andrea
My husband loves Seinfeld more than just about anything...I don't really care for it? (Sorry!)
ReplyDeleteI have to admit that it's a little creepy seeing those pictures together. I'm going to have to take them home and let him see for himself!
As always, love the blog!
Cake(wrecks book) please!
ReplyDeleteIf that monkey had been decorated with a full set of teeth, it would have been a frightening doppleganger.
ReplyDeleteheLLLLOOOOOO
ReplyDeletePick me John! Pick me! Pick me!
ReplyDeleteBananas are an excellent source of potassium. They make a great on the go snack as they are portable,and dont require washing or knives for peeling. Pick one up today.
Did you know the easiest way to peel a banana is like the monkeys do. Simply squueze the BOTTOM stem and the skin will split apart easily.
Tiny purple elephant
That's just plain scary!
ReplyDeleteGET OUTTA HERE!!
ReplyDeletelove Seinfeld!
I think it's the eyebrows.
ReplyDeleteYou'll never make a monkey outta me!!!
ReplyDeleteimagine if you will a certain whiny pitch in the voice--"Why does 2% milk taste good with cake, but tastes different with cupcakes?"
ReplyDeletecall me bananas!!
Sam i am
Hmmm...quite the resemblance there eh?
ReplyDeleteI would love a calendar!
ReplyDeleteMelting Cinderella
They could be twins! I would love a chance to win the book or calendar!
ReplyDeleteI would love a calendar!
ReplyDeleteBest imitiation of that no-talent Seinfeld I've ever seen.... I think it even channeled his personality!
ReplyDeleteI'md dying for a calendar!
ReplyDeletePick me! I have the book, now I need the calendar. Didn't even know there WAS a calendar until today. :)
ReplyDeleteMy cellular, bananular phone!
ReplyDeleteBanana phone, ring ring ring!
"Get out of here!!!!"
ReplyDeleteBut really, you are not the only one that sees the resemblance.
I've been instructed to stay away from breads and NO sweets for 2 weeks, so you know I'm just dyin' for some cake... but THAT ccc (ptooey!) makes the craving flat out RUN away. Yikes.
ReplyDeleteNever mind Seinfeld. That CCC Monkey is scary on its own merits.
ReplyDeletePost post post post post post post post post post post poooooooost!
ReplyDeleteI'm sort of afraid, since I've been reduced to soft foods like bananas (I broke a tooth off last night)and would hate to appear as part of this ccc setup.
ReplyDeleteWV cangshin I am trying to cangshin on the pity vote to get a calendar.
Uncanny.
ReplyDeleteI love your site... I think about it each time I go to order a cake!!! :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha! And I'd still love a book ;)
ReplyDeleteIf the contest is open for international readers, count me in. :o)
ReplyDeleteAlso, the Seinfeld/cake monkey resemblance is all kinds of uncanny and creeps me out.
Sorry, my last post went without my name...
ReplyDeleteAs I said, if the contest is open to international readers, please count me in!!
I'll enter for the giggles.
ReplyDeleteno cake for you, lol, wow, scary look alike there!!
ReplyDeleteI'm seeing Rodney Dangerfield.
ReplyDeleteWow....That monkey looks like it has boobs.
ReplyDeleteThat monkey needs teeth!
ReplyDeleteYour blog makes me smile everyday!
ReplyDeleteI'm speechless!
ReplyDeletei woudl love a calendar... i so need a new one :)
ReplyDeleteugly monkey but amazing DOES look like...
What is it with cupcake cakes?
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to figure out what the other two pale cupcakes are for... the ones that obviously aren't part of his limbs.
ReplyDeleteAnd although I am in the process of teaching my nephew to love monkeys, I now know to never get him a monkey cupcake cake.
Here I go, trying again. :)
ReplyDeleteNever thought I'd see a ccc actually resemble someone without really trying. The creator must have been denied soup. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat CCC (bleh) creeps me out. Please enter me for the book. =)
ReplyDeleteI just got a book for my birthday and would love a calendar. I take my book to my cake decorativ classes that I teach.
ReplyDeleteI sure would love to win. Being that I'm home sick with a virus that my adorable plague carrier..uh mean 3 year old child has so thoughtfully given me. Since he's totally into Monkeys it seemed fitting that I enter under this "spectacular" monkey cc!
ReplyDeleteDoes EVERYONE on that show have a tail?!? Remember Jason Alexander's little wagging tail? Jerry's seems a bit harder to hide, though.
ReplyDelete
