This cake makes me think of the book "Afternoon of the Elves" by Janet Talyor Lisle which I read when I was only 11. It's reminiscent of a girl in boots that are too big who spends all her time building houses for elves out of leaves in her back yard. But now she's all grown up and getting married to an equally elvin man and they are having a simple barefoot wedding in the woods.
Do you think your flowers and cuttings will last longer in a vase that seems to be soothing them with a song?
Kleenex boxes are not so cute, just be careful to not blow your nose on Eeyore.
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?
These have been around forever but never fail to delight me. I think my adult self needs to pop out and get one of my own.
Tea is best enjoyed with a friend or loved one. This tree tea is definitely intended to be shared.
I imagine it would take a tremendous effort to restrain myself enough to get chips onto these little trees without eating them all first. Let's just say that's possible and move on. Any party with chip trees is probably the best party ever. Please invite me.
So the kid who finds the fish head on the tree Christmas morning gets extra tripe for dinner?
How lovely is your frosting! The little sprinkles that I spy, they twinkle sweetly at my eye! Oh cupcake tree, oh cupcake tree, I want to lick your branches.
I know it's a little early to talk about the holidays but how cool would it be to have an Up! themed tree? You could tie balloons all over it and have a little house at the base!
Broccoli is by far my favorite vegetable. If I didn't abide by the urban hipster bible and only buy local organic produce I would eat broccoli every day and never get sick of it. With cheese, steamed with lemon, in a casserole. IN A CAKE OMG! Making pictures inside food with a broccoli tree, be still my beating heart!
Ah, the tree is so serene and quiet and just enjoying the day. This is a lesson I could stand to learn today.
Are you a huge nerd like me? Do you love Game of Thrones and follow the old gods? Do you wish you had a creepy old tree with a face to pray to? You can at least eat this one!

I've gone to the trouble of finding the cutest ornaments for you this year. They're all just a click away!
You almost can't even see the actual tree here in the sea of gingerbread and lollipops and other sweet goodies. I'd love it if Christmas trees were edible. We'd be nibbling well into March and have no waste leftover to sit all sad and dry on the curb.
