Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round-Up for May 13, 2012
Happy Mother’s Day! And if you aren’t a mother, then feel free to wish me a Happy Mother’s Day!
I don’t know what today will hold – I’m heartily hoping for a little pampering, quiet, and possibly a nap – but I’m thankful for my babies, and I’m thankful that I still have my mom with me. I also have a life filled with so many dear sweet women and girlfriends who have been mentors and confidantes. So I’m glad to share this day with them as well.
The busy wedding season is Read More

For the Guys: Union Jack Groom’s Cake Inspiration
So…maybe it’s a little “backyard barbecue” – or whatever the equivalent is Across the Pond – but I thought this cake was pretty darn adorable.
I think that it was technically created to fete the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on their Read More
Cake Topper Friday: Chalkboard Cake Topper
I have a couple of teacher friends who super need this in their lives!
This is crazy adorable! It’s the original customizable cake topper…as in you can customize it over and over and over again! Use it for your wedding, and then re-use for anniversaries, birthdays, or even your future children’s (sniff, tear) first birthday celebration.
I love when an idea is super simple and brilliant in its super simpleness. This would be perfect for Read More
Peony Pearl Wedding Cake
We are lovers to the max of Pink Cake Box around here. My partner, Christen introduced me to their work. You’ll know when I’m scrolling through their blog, because you’ll hear saying things like “Agh!” And “Gahhh!” And “Gorgeous!” My family probably thinks I’m having some kind of torrid love affair with my laptop.

I spied this cake on the blog just a few days ago, and Anne Heap and her talented staff graciously let me share the incredible pretty with all of you! The cake is Read More
Gothic Wedding Cake
I think I spy Victor Van Dort and his Corpse Bride!
Isn’t this fabulous? This gothic cake by Marianne of Dazzlelicious Cakes in Plymouth, UK, is the talk of the town. I absolutely LOVE the cool, ghosty blue and black motif. Black and blue roses, y’all! And swags and swags and stripes and swirls. This is an amazing cake, and this was a really fun wedding, I just know it.
There is just so much going on here! Check out the Read More
Orange Spring Tiger Lily Wedding Cake
Once again, The Couture Cakery has captivated me with color.
Jasmine Clouser does everything fantastically – from sweets tables to cakes. And she can create a demure cake with the best of them. However, so many of her cakes that I have fallen in love with have used such breathtaking color that I simply could not pass them up. This is a great example.
I love orange anyway, but to have it paired so beautifully here with bright blue is a real plus. Really, this is just SUCH a beautiful color combination for spring and summer. And Jasmine’s meticulous Read More
White Monogrammed Cake With Single Initial
It’s well documented: I love white wedding cakes, and I love monograms.
I think it takes a special baker to make something truly original out of the sea of white wedding cakes that I view everyday. So when I spy something out of the norm, I really like to share it with you.
This is so pretty, don’t you think? In an austere, regal, slightly stand offish and reserved kinda way. This cake doesn’t associate with the other cakes. This lovely creation is reserved for Read More

Cake Topper Friday: Egg and Bird Nest Cake Toppers
So, before I launch into my normal and characteristic rhapsody, a disclaimer: this picture has been repinned on Pinterest. A lot. And it would seem that the original link was to some spammy site, rather than the original source. But I simply had to show it to you. So if you know who is responsible for this darling genius of a cake, please speak up. Ok. Onto cake gushing.
So, the eggs and nest are cute enough here, right? New love, new life hatching and all that. But when you pull back and see the darling Read More
