During the holiday season, bakers rush to their ovens to create cakes in the likeness of Santa Claus. And while Santa is usually a very jolly guy, some of these cakes might not capture his jolliness. We've gathered up the scariest Santa cakes we could find from Jen Yates of CakeWrecks.com. We hope none of these Santa cakes appear on your holiday table this year.
For more great Santa cakes or holiday cakes gone terribly wrong, check out Jen Yates' new book, Wreck the Halls: Cake Wrecks Gets "Festive".

| Sun-Burned Santa |
This Santa spent a little too much time in the Bahamas.

| Seeing Green |
How the grinch stole Christmas or how the grinch stole Santa?

| Not so Smooth |
Looks as if Santa tripped and did a face plant in the cake.

| Blimp Santa |
This guy defies all laws of proportion with arms 1 inch long and a body the size of a hot air balloon.

| Trendy Sledding |
Wondering what's the latest trend in snow sledding? Leave your sled at home.

| Jack-O-Santa |
This Santa has a striking resemblance to a Halloween jack-o'-lantern.

| Abstract Santa |
While the Santas in the front row are questionable, check out the guys in the back. A yellow face and bright green eyes are really taking Santa to artistic heights.

| Realistic Face |
Santa's tiny, very realistic plastic face doesn't quite mesh with his rotund body and lack of hands.

| French Santa |
Another pink-faced cake, this Santa has the face of a monkey and a thin Parisian mustache.
