Is that little bear holding a strawberry a hint about what is hiding inside this lovely cake? Ohhhh Nikol, your first birthday is going to be really something special.

When I was a wee tot I had a Woodstock Christmas tree ornament. My brother had Snoopy and my sister had... the girl Snoopy. What was her name? Oh that's right, Belle! Thanks Google! Anyway, I always knew that despite species, Woodstock was always top dog. This cake proves it.

An elephant never forgets and you'll never forget a 10th birthday party with an elephant theme like this. It's like a memory convention!

Who doesn't love a surprise in their treats? Of course, when that surprise is a happy treat itself, not, like, a worm or something. Finding a heart in your cupcake is like finding a love note. It makes you feel special to know that someone cares enough to make a gesture.

Happy opening weekend of the Olympics! What events are you guys most excited for? I can't wait for women's boxing and gymnastics!

Recently I decided that I'm going to model myself after one of those crazy, artsy, metropolitan wackos who only wears one color every day forever. I've chosen yellow and I figure that in two or three years I can weed out all the clothes that aren't yellow, black, white, grey or bluejeans (because really, who are we kidding here? Jeans are important.) and be a bonafide eccentric.

Everything yellow I see speaks to me. This cake gives me lovely flutters!

I don't have a source for these so I can't say if they're candy or cakes or what but I do know they're not fish. Any guesses as to what is hidden inside?

Could you possibly refrain from eating this cake to see what wacky adventures they'd get up to?

I might be able to handle a Big Mac if it's made itty bitty and crunchy. Sure I like a little grease now and then, but this is the perfect portion size.

You better hurry up, this cake has a hell of a lot of legs and might get away from you.

Perfection is overrated, I prefer delicious creativity!

Sometimes the universe sends you not-so-subtle hints about what you should be doing with your time. I think this means I should be spending more time molding tiny household appliances out of fondant, right? Let's just say that's what this is about.

It's been a while since we've seen a good super fancy, multi rainbow cake around these parts. Bask in its day-brightening glory.

I could see this framed and hanging on a wall as a remembrance of a birthday. The polka dots can be wallpaper right? Please don't tell me someone ate this.

These horses are adorable but they raise so very many questions! Why do some of them have big red lips? Why are they wearing thong underwear? And why does that one horse but have a jockey cap on? Horses: mystery of the racetrack!

I'm glad to see that the end of the movie series hasn't dampened the enthusiasm of the HP fans out there. The books will be read and re-read and cherished forever, mark my words.
