Cake Wrecks

If you don't decorate cakes for a living or if you didn't see today's New York Times's food section, ("When the Icing on the Cake Spells Disaster") you might have missed Cake Wrecks http://www.cakewrecks.com/. Jen Yates's blog, which uses the tagline "when professional cakes go horribly, hilariously wrong," is a chronicle of misspellings, miscommunication and good intentions gone bad. Besides her popular blog, Yates has a new book (Cake Wrecks, Andrews McMeel, $12.99) - a great gift for your favorite baker. While the examples of directions to the cake decorator ending up on the cake can become predictable, the shower cakes with babies coming out of pregnant bellies, well they have to be seen to be believed.. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/14/dining/14cake.html?_r=1&hpw
