Normally I'd scream overkill at a cake this busy but there is some amazing balance going on here. A striped rainbow heart inside a striped rainbow cake? A rainbow of fondant sprinkles so perfect they must have been placed there by very patient elves? I swoon for this kind of overkill.
Sure there are all sorts of edible flowers but have you actually eaten them? I have, they taste like, well, like flowers. Wouldn't you rather eat something that looked like a flower but tasted sweet? Of course you would.
This cake belongs in an English garden with lots of wildflowers and vines and antique roses and tea-dyed lace dresses and big floppy hats. The bugs and plants will happily eat up all the crumbs I leave behind.
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.
I demand that forever starting now every flower arrangement that crosses my path shall have a kitty face in it.
Wild blueberries make me all giddy for summer. Picking them off the bush when they're warmed by the sun, it's almost impossible to not eat them all and have some left over for cake.
Elegant, naughty, maybe a little dangerous, I want to smear this stuff all over me based on packaging alone!
Ooh, I'd love to open a box and find a flower inside, only to realize that it's actually a delicious cupcake!
When you want your phone both floofy and Harry Potter themed, this is the case for you!
The delicate bit of blush on the cherry blossoms here is really what's getting me all swoony. So dreamy.
Carnations get a bad rap in the flower world these days. I think the campaign to revive their gentle image through baking is a good strategy.
Oh, poor baby isn't old enough to appreciate the glory of this amazing cake. What a shame.
The things you can do with a bag of cheap-o toys and a glue gun really are astounding.
I've had a photo of bird shaped cookies on my computer desktop for approximately a skrillion years now. These cupcakes win. The home decor inspired use of a floral with polka dots is genius! In fact, I may use this as inspiration to redecorate my home. Cupcakes, you win!
