I Share With You Because I Love You! Yes, You!


My friends,

If you're not already reading Cake Wrecks, well by-golly you should be! It'll make you laugh, it'll never make you cry, and it'll make you say "what the..."

Until I discovered this blog, I had no idea how little the term "professional" meant when it came to cake decorating. It seems any old bugger can slip into this title! Spelling and reading skills are apparently not required to correspond in frosting. And if you have an affinity for the creepy and oddly inappropriate, cake decorating could be your calling!

Beyond the cake decorators themselves, I'm curious about the people who actually order these cakes. While I admire those who have the amazing skill to sculpt realistically out of flour and sugar, I'm simply baffled by the subjects of some of these cakes. I mean, who thought it would be a good idea to serve baby?? Who gets the honor of slicing this cake, I wonder? Or how about this life-size replica of a bride ("I'll take a slice of boob over here!")?

Where is the logic? Where is the tact? You'll find none of that here. It's brilliant and so hilarious!

The icing on the cake that is Cake Wrecks is Jen, the sites author. Her witty commentary never ceases to make me laugh and her posts always make my day! Dessert + other peoples stupidity = genius. It's a perfect formula.
