    share and sheri alike
  8. Lama says:

    hahaha No comment

  9. Avis says:

    I love a good cake wreck!

  10. Cloral says:

    I’d give my right eye for a good cake!

  11. The Conversationalist says:

    This seems to happen more often than one would expect. I am certain I saw a fail similar to this a couple weeks ago.
    Since I really do not understand how a cake decorator could make such an error, I would have to conclude that:
    1) He/she did this on purpose for spite or a laugh
    2) He/she is really, REALLY stupid (don’t get me wrong – I ain’t saying that I’m the sharpest tool in the shed)

    • The Conversationalist says:

      Wait!
      3) “Sheri with an eye” is her nickname!

      • Ms B ♥ says:

        Check out cakewrecks.com. These are doubtfully on purpose. People apparently really are that dumb.

        • The Conversationalist says:

          OMG. You are absolutely right. I mean, if there’s a whole freakin website dedicated to such fails…
          Everyday I see fails that make me lose a little faith in humankind, but at least it makes me feel better about myself. :)

      • SuzieQ says:

        *corrects TC’s post*
        Should be:
        3) safety “Sheri with an eye” is her nickname!

        • The Conversationalist says:

          Hello SuzieQ! I have three questions:
          1) what is “safety”?
          2) how do you apply a strikethough on your comments?
          3) is your avatar a newborn baby cow? (yes, I know “newborn baby” is redundant)

    • ClariPossum says:

      There are a couple ways I can see this happening…

      The person filling out the cake order was telling the baker what to write on the cake, and the baker misunderstood “With an I”, and then whoever decorated it took the instructions literally.

      Or, alternatively, the person filling out the cake order wrote that him/her self, and really is just that uneducated.

      I’d love to know exactly how this happened.

  12. Kviki says:

    Am I the only one that doesn’t get it?

  13. sfrench says:

    Ah jeez. This is why I hate having that name…no one spells it right. (Mine is similar but a little different.)

  14. theruler454 says:

    what happened to her other eye?

  15. Demonizah! says:

    Aha, so Sauron made an intentional pun then?

    “You can’t hide… Eye see…”

  16. me says:

    its probably an inside joke between the two, not a fail

    • ClariPossum says:

      That, actually, is quite possible…

      • Tamarack says:

        I can attest this was definitely an idiot or someone with a deliciously naughty sense of humor with the icing bag. A friend actually placed the phone order for a coworker, asking the Minneapolis bakery to write Happy Birthday, Sheri – with an “i”. (to distinguish from other spellings of this name, e.g. Sherry)

  17. timemaker says:

    I just one eye?? then is good that Sheri is no monster………. otherwise she’d be the one-eye-monster……… wait what?

  18. John says:

    “Hand crafted and chef-prepared” (proofreading available for additional charge)

  19. Conflictingsauces says:

    I’ve seen a bunch of cakes like this on this site, are all people who decorate the cakes retarded?

  20. Rehcsif says:

    Lunds/Byerly’s fail. For the same or less money, go to the Cake Box off of Broadway in New Hope. Awesome cake, reasonable prices. We got our wedding cake there and have gone back many times for birthday cakes in the last decade.

    (Lunds/Byerly’s is a Minneapolis thing, New Hope is a Minneapolis suburb)

  21. MJB says:

    As I former cake decorator, I’ve been asked to put some weird s**t on cakes, so sometimes it’s hard to tell if people are being serious, or if they’re adding information to the writing section, or whatever. Especially orders taken over the phone. People SUCK at giving orders on the phone, because 99% of the time they don’t even know what the hell they want the cake to even look like. “Oh just make it look nice” doesn’t help.

    At any rate, I do LOVE shopping at Lunds. I’d never order a cake from there tho (only because I can make my own, of course!).

  22. MM says:

    Cakewreck! LOL

  23. Cool Dude says:

    Could Fail Blog stop reposting years old material from Cake Wrecks and Photoshop Disasters?

  24. kate says:

    eye get it!

  25. Nyte says:

    I had the same with the birthday of my nephew…

    Dean 3 years! on 2 cakes please…

    1st cake: Dean 3 years!
    2nd cake: to cake please!

  26. Sheri says:

    Not fair I never got the cake!!!!

    Sheri with an i (eye). ; }

  27. Shou says:

    Eye see what they did there.

  28. Crock says:

    Or “2 years without alcohol”

  29. Creative Anarchy says:

    Not the best last day at the job but certainly a good one.

  30. JW says:

    Cake decorators have to be among the stupidest people on the planet.

    I love it.
