dessert

Jelly shots aren't always super classy, and little cakes aren't always exciting. But when you can combine the two and get a little boozy jolt from your mini Boston cream pie cake, you've hit the snack jackpot! The snackpot?

At first I thought this looked like the world's fanciest doorstop or something but then I started drooling and realized that my brain knew it was awesome food so why couldn't the rest of me figure it out? The only way to eat such a fancy dessert is in the tiniest nibbles possible. You have to be careful not to compromise the structural integrity of the stack.

This looks like the ideal breakfast when I had one too many the night before and I refuse to get out of bed for another couple more hours. If my husband would humor me and bring me berries and cream I might even agree to empty the litter box!

Currants are perfect for a midday tart. Not too sweet, not too tart, not too heavy. I could go for a slice and a spot of tea right now to be honest.

The one super ridiculous indulgence I allowed myself on my recent trip to Paris was a visit to Ladurée on the Champs-Élysées. It's spendy and extravagant and silly but how can I, in good conscience, run this site about cute foods and not eat at the mecca of cute food-dom? I only had a few macarons, and they were exquisite! I wish I could have packed my suitcase full of pink meringue goodies like this one but it wasn't to be.

Have you ever seen a cannoli so wee or so precious? I can get full heartedly behind this trend of micro desserts. Usually I only want one or two bites of a dessert and this way you can try a whole bunch of different nibbles and not feel all guilty about it.

This looks so soft and pillowy I want to sleep on it. Of course whipped cream isn't the best thing ever for your hair, but once you wash it I bet all the fat will make your tresses pretty soft. To eat or sleep, eat or sleep... tough questions.

I wish I knew what was inside this lovely green apple dessert! Is it a cake? An actual apple? some sort of pastry or bean paste? Mochi? I want to eat it no matter what!

I will never get tired of these amazing videos. All the desserts! Get in my mouth!

Another step towards a life lived with nothing but Hello Kitty products everywhere.

Nothing says love like a heart shaped dessert delicately dusted with cocoa powder. Sadly, I fear cocoa powder as it seems inevitable that I will accidentally breathe some of it in when I take the first bite and then I'll cough all crazy and destroy everything. How I wish I could enjoy a dusted treat.

Ohh yeah baby, chop that chocolate. You know how I like it. This dessert will keep me up ALL night.

I'm sorry I have to do this, koala, but you're just too damn delicious.
