"Hi there! I'd like to order a Transformers cake. I really like this one...
"...but do you think you could put Bumblebee on it instead of Optimus Prime? You can? Great! Thanks."
[Later...]
Mary S., maybe the Wreckerator was going for the world's best Decepticon. Eh?
Naaahh.

A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.
Now, don't you have a photo you want to send me? ;)
