cupcake dress

So don’t you remember that time that you got all gussied up and went out and wore a 600 pound dress made of cake?  Oh you don’t.

Me either.  But Melissa of Cupcakes OMG! does..in fact she did it not too long ago.

The cake was made by Katelyn Selin, Kait Ingram and Sandrea Park Welch at the Taste of Charleston’s Iron Chef’s Competition.  They used forty vanilla and red-velvet sheet cakes and 190 pounds of buttercream.  Oh my.  Who got to lick that bowl?

The fact that this was in Charleston, which is about an hour and a half from my house, makes me sad I missed this.  How often to do get to see a life size cupcake with a human in it?  Never.  That’s how often.  If you have..well then I think I need to hang out with you more often.  Send me an e-mail.  I’ll send you my phone number and we’ll text and become BFF’s.

You can check out Melissa’s entire blog post with tons and tons of pictures here.  And yup, she got to eat her dress.  Boom.
