"When the Icing on the Cake Spells Disaster."
ADDED: Don't miss the slide show.
And the blog, Cake Wrecks. Here's a link to the thing in the article that cracked me up the most.

Here's another one for you:

Hysterical. Went to the nytimes website and quickly sent it to my daughter. We all need a laugh
Thanks for the laugh!!
You know, the UBS cake is actually very well done. That showed a lot of skill, even it it also showed a lack of communication.
Graduation hazard.
I can see the blog headline coming:
Charles Johnson decries Ann Althouse for promoting racist cake site!
@Henry
That site is amusing and disturbing. Once I figured out it was stuff derived from www.etsy.com it seemed funnier.
I liked the one with the exclamation point left off so the cake said, "Way To Go Bob" all sarcastic like. haha
I had to re-apply my mascara after reading this! Haven't laughed this hard for a long time. The slide show of cakes is priceless - especially the one that says "Nothing".
"Here, put 'Happy Birthday' on this cake, and step on it."
Some of them had a meta quality. A cake with "nothing" written on it is reminiscent of the Magritte painting of a pipe with the inscription that "this is not a pipe" written under it. We should all strive to celebrate our passing moments of nothingness.
I had to know what the purple cake with the pipes and crying eye was about, so I went to the site and found it. It's "four tears, purple iris, and fancy piping."
I so love that cake I want it for my birthday.
Ha!
I was thinking... how is the weird eye cake a fail?
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Oh no. No, she di'nt.
Cake Order:
Four tiers
Shades of purple
Purple iris on top
Include fancy piping
Any flavor
Result: crying purple giant eyeball cake with heavy plumbing throughout.
I especially liked the one that had:
("Olympic rings")
I wonder if putting it in brackets would have helped.
I also like the Naked Mohawk Carrot riding babies.
I envision presenting that cake to THIS music
thanks, I have not laughed that hard in a while. They kept going and going. This sexual harassment one had me laughing and wondering why on earth anyone would make a cake like this? what are they celebrating? http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2008/08/this-calls-for-celebration.html
Cake Wrecks has been on my bookmarks for a long time. Always good for a laugh.
The sexual harassment cake rules. It sends an important and correct message: Don't do this.
I didn't actually laugh out loud at it, though, until I read this in the writeup: "check out how far the girl's feet are off the ground."
My husband and I started Atkins on Tuesday.
I have *got* to stop scrolling past that cake!
;-)
