A Collection of New Year Cakes That Defy Explanation

Some people celebrate the New Year with champagne, others with black-eyed peas. But many people who throw a holiday party offer a cake as well, decorated just for the occasion. That means there's plenty of material for Cake Wrecks. When I first saw the cake shown here, I thought it was shaped like a boot for some reason. But the cupcakes on the side look like a handle, so it might be a beer mug. So what's going on at the bottom? It may have been a case of a certain required number of cupcakes.  

The other cakes in a roundup at Cake Wrecks include one in which "year" is misspelled, and a cake in the shape of a clock that confirms some people can't read an analog clock. There's also a really well-crafted cake in the inexplicable shape of a bald man's head that emphasizes his very bloodshot eyes. But wait, there's more! A second post of New Year cakes gives us a cake in the shape of a champagne bottle that was so bad they added a label to explain what it's supposed to be, among other bakery abominations.
