11 Uniquely Chic Christmas Cakes
We're on the home stretch, my friends! Just a few more days 'til Christmas, and then we can collapse in front of the TV for a few days before New Year's. (At least that's MY plan. I have some Overwatch skins to earn, dangit.)
It's important to pace yourself, though, so let's all take a mini break to swoon over these Sweet Christmas cakes I found:
(A Few Cakes, Canada)
I love that sprinkle tree inset, such a clever design! I bet you could press a cookie cutter into the icing to get the shape right.
The unicorn cake trend continues to give us even more adorable variations:
(Carolina Wachter, Chile)
Reindeer cake! The gold-tipped horns are extra glam.
Here's another unusual design that has me smitten:
This fireplace cake is LIT, y'all. I love the 3D look; it's hard to tell how deep that inset really is! I wonder if you could actually light the candles on top.
You've probably noticed I'm after the more non-traditional Christmas cakes. When you've been at this for 10 years, it's always nice seeing something new - like this!
(Amanda Earl Cake Design, North Yorkshire)
I love all this: the dangly ornaments, the colors, the free-standing wreath!
And of course I'm going to love a Cake Rex:
(MOLI Cakes, Slovakia)
DINO-MIGHT! :D
Have you noticed that Christmas gnomes are all the rage lately?
(Baker unknown. Help?)
I can't get enough of these little guys; I even bought a fluffy white one for my desk. But I have to admit, these ones are even cuter in their little Christmas hats!
Check out the all the textures on this beauty:
(Nancy TW, Nova Scotia)
That wafer paper tree in the middle is my favorite, but I'm also heart-eyed over the sparkly icicles!
I'm always a sucker for Sweets that defy gravity:
(Nicky Lamprinou, Greece)
I hope whoever got this cake saved the poinsettia and hung it on a wall somewhere!
Oooh, here's on that brings the drama:
(Kleiza Rojas, Pennsylvania)
Proof that with enough gold trim, black really IS festive!
Or, if you prefer a softer look:
(Tortenherz, Germany)
D'awwww. That coral and soft blue is close enough to my OTP of orange and teal that I am totally here for this. Plus I'm surprised by how much I like the little touches of red!
And finally, an ethereal beauty that's giving me Frozen Sugar Plum Fairy vibes:
(Justyna A Majewska, Germany)
WOW. Her dress is made of delicately iced snowflakes! This is decorating magic. Amazing.
I hope these gave a smile and a few minutes free from worry and stress, my friends. Remember to take time to escape and recharge this holiday! And as always, I hope your week is extra Sweet.
