flowers

These look more like a permanent decoration than an edible treat! The beetroot color is so stunning and really shows off the edible flowers clinging to the outsides. Super clever! I bet even the bees would be fooled.

First, I apologize that I was unable to find a photo of this cake with a slice taken out of it. It's red velvet and I'm sure devastatingly beautiful. I'm super impressed with the buttercream piping skills on display here. Those roses are GORGEOUS. So I guess I can see why they didn't want to slice it in the photo but come on, throw us a bone.

I've never seen a muffin covered in chocolate but I'll take it!

I love the motif of kind of spiky flowers like this on baked goods. It contrasts nicely with the soft roundness of the cake itself, don't you think? I don't know much about flowers but I bet you guys do; are there real life spiky flowers like that out in the wild?

Let's play sleuths: What's the connection here? Sure sure, you may say it's someone's 20th birthday and they love owls but that's too easy. There must be a deeper meaning. Is there a secret society of owls? Is there a code to which side they wear their flowers on? Is 20 a mystical number?

Sharing isn't such a hassle when each guest is assured their very own Kit Kats with their slice of cake. No fighting, except maybe over the spilled m&ms skittering off the table.

There must be about 20 flowers packed on every cupcake! That's pretty amazing. And they're all so different and incredibly made. Are they crunchy? Soft? Do I spy some of my most favorite edible glitter hiding in there? I wish it weren't so cold because this calls for a tea party in the garden for sure!

Piggies, stop staring at me so blankly with your super blankity blank faces. I can't get a read on you, you're creeping me out. Let's just eat and get it over with.
