cake

I want a table covered in giant fruit-shaped cakes. It would make me feel like an itty bitty person in a magical land of sweets.

I feel like I'm jinxing the weather here with all my talk of "Spring is coming! Spring is coming!" but the rain stays and the cold stays and I'm beginning to think that I am bad luck. I just want to keep thinking warm thoughts.

Hey owl! It's okay, you can come sit with us! Here, borrow my scarf, you look cold. Do you want some of my hot chocolate? So when do we get to dig into this awesome cake anyway?

How many awesome scenes from Alice in Wonderland can someone pack into one elegant cake? My favorite part is the little cards at the base bent over to be croquet wickets. How obedient?

I'm sure we've all dreamed from time to time about having a tasty treat so large that we could essentially live on it. I'd like to think that I'd have enough restraint to not eat until comatose. Oh who am I kidding? I'd end up flat on my back like Homer there in about ten minutes.

It's a shame that any smashing has to happen here, it's such a cute Hulk!

I love a good spiral, and chocolate, and peppermint. hiding the buttercream frosting on the inside of a cake is a sneaky trick that I whole-heartedly embrace. A delightful surprise!

Eli Squarepants! Okay so I'm not really a Spongebob fan, I'm a little old for that one, but I do think the show is cute and my nieces and nephews love it. This cake is a masterpiece topped off with those little jellyfish, I'm smitten. It makes me want to watch the show just because someone was so masterful with fondant. Hey baker, are you being payed by Nickelodeon?

Accessorizing is a piece of cake!

Remember everybody, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Get your pink on, donate a few bucks, make a pretty cake!

Would you eat your favorite dwarf first or least favorite first?

These crown cookies are so adorable, I want to make every dessert royal!

I'll admit it, I'm a grown woman with a not entirely ironic fondness for Twilight. I'm not a mom, I'm not living vicariously through my teenage daughters (because, ick). I'm just a person who sometimes loves reading really schlocky, badly-written novels with quickly moving plot lines. I wouldn't be ashamed of this cake showing up on my birthday, except that Edward looks a little sickly gray and moldy. Not a good look for a sparkly vampire.

This wedding cake (yes, CAKE) recreates the scenario of the couple's first date down to the edible back pack, cups of wine and park bench. Amazing!

It's been over 20 years since I found Garfield the least bit funny, but there is something iconic about his silly fat face. I could get some serious pleasure out of eating his head.

Do you specifically love rainbow cake more than any other type of cake? Show off your very specific love!
