Sunday Sweets Gets OVER DRAMATIC

There's a place for casual elegance, but sometimes you want something a little more... elaborate. Something bold, something over-the-top. Something that grabs your eyeballs by the collar and slaps 'em around a bit - in a good way.

You know, like this:

(By Tran Linh)

BOOYAH.

So good.

You want sparkles?
We've got sparkles:

(By Artisan Cake Company)

Booyah AGAIN.

Think you need a big cake to make a big statement? Think again:

(By Modern Lovers)

This little gem packs a pretty punch!

It doesn't get more classic than black, white, and lipstick red:

(By Very Unique Cakes)

Or, for that matter, black, white, and gold:

(By MILA)

Here's the same color palette with a little more joie de vivre:

(By JT Cakes)

Ahhh, Paris. Where even the streetlights cast little heart shadows. (So cute!)

I just realized most of these have been on the dark side so far - but believe me, you don't need any color at all to make jaws drop:

(By Cakes Decor member Beth)

This drama queen is a vision in ruffles!

Or how about this snow white wonder:

(By Bobette and Belle)

That hand-piped lace is blowing my mind.

Now add a bold pop of red swirly flowers:

(By Made With Love)

And don't forget a little a lot of bling!

(By Practical Imperfect Mom)

And one final statement piece proves that not all that glitters is gold:

(By Fine Cakes by Zehra)

Sometimes it's silver.

:D

Happy Sunday, everyone!

Cake Wrecks At The Movies

Famous movie quotes paired with Cake Wrecks? Why, that's:

"Elementary, my dear Watson!"

So...

"Come play with us, Danny!"

"Come play with us... forever... and ever... and ever."

"If you build it, he will come."

He swings, he scores!

"You can't HANDLE the truth!"

...your what? YOUR WHAT?!

"You had me at 'hello.'"

Turns out Renée was a real valley girl.

"As God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again."

You and me both, sister.

"Nobody puts Baby in a corner."

And finally, my very favorite:

"DRAW ME LIKE ONE OF YOUR FRENCH GIRLS."

Thanks to Milissa M., Britani O., Trish, Erica M., Kimberly B., Helen Z., Anony M., & Kerami A. for going ahead and making our day.
