Sunday Sweets Goes Geek - Again!

It's been far too long since we drooled over geeky weddings, you guys. LET'S FIX THAT.

(By Cakes By Kayleigh)

At first I thought this was just a Doctor Who/Star Wars mashup, but look closer: there's also a Stargate, Serenity from Firefly, the Enterprise, a pokéball, and Link's sword! (Did I miss anything?)

For the classic video game fans:

D'aww. Digging the arcade buttons on the cake board!

Oooh, and here's the prettiest Settlers of Catan cake I've ever seen:

(By The Cake Whisperer)

With little bride and groom sheep! Ah! I DIE FROM TEH CUTE.

Maybe you're more of a Game of Thrones person:

(By Tastefully Yours Cake Art)

In that case, any way you slice it, you'll definitely have enough swords.

How about a Dark Knight for your big day?

(By Star Cakes)

Ok, so this MAY not be a wedding cake. But in my defense: PREEETTTTTY.

I think you all know the way to my heart, though:

(By Roses and Bows Cakery)

With sparkly steampunk, of course!

This design reminds me of the new Toothsome Chocolate Emporium here in Orlando - aka, the prettiest steampunk chocolate factory ever. Like this cake, it's shiny and colorful as opposed to rusty and grungy. (I took ALL the photos if you want to see.)

Here comes another epic mashup:

(By Black Cherry Cake Company)

WOW.

Sharyn and I were bemoaning the fact that we had to pick just ONE Black Cherry cake to post this week. They are THE source for fabulous geek designs, you guys. So good. Who else could put together Miyazaki, Bleach, Supernatural, and Star Wars this seamlessly?

Oh! And speaking of fandoms that go together, have you heard of SuperWhoLock?

(By The London Baker)

That's Supernatural, Doctor Who, and Sherlock. (See the smiley on the TARDIS? And the 221B?)

This next one may not be a specific fandom, but, um, space is geeky, right?

(By Le Sucre au Four)

Besides, how cute is that rocket ship?? SQUEE! I love the smoke trail!

And finally, friends, Romans, Dizgeeks... BEHOLD.

(By Crumb.s)

The most beautiful Beauty and the Beast cake yet! I believe that's entirely hand-painted, and I can't get over how vivid the colors are. So perfect!

Happy Sunday, everyone! I hope these cakes helped make it extra Sweet.

P.S. For those of you who like Diamond Painting kits, check this out:

5D Beauty & The Beast Diamond Painting, 16X12

The stained glass design is classic, of course, but if you hit the link you'll see a few more options, and I think I like the one with just the Beast even better. So pretty.

The Last Effs Given

There's nothing more dismal than the first day back to work after a holiday. You're tired, you're possibly hung-over, you're definitely not ready to be wearing pants and/or a bra again, but here you are, expected to pick up like it's a regular ol' Tuesday. BAH.

Bakers are no less susceptible to the First-Day-Back blues, but I will say theirs is SLIGHTLY more obvious.

Gee, you shouldn't have.

Ready, set...

BLEH.

When you can't be bothered to find the spatula:

I just hope she wore gloves.

Andy's big 30th birthday bash is about. to get. EPIC.

...ally bad.

It was a drive-by splooging!

Or maybe a "stand-over-and-sway-drunkenly" splooging.

You know it's gone wrong when they bring in the big plastic butterfly.

Big plastic butterfly fixes everything.

Took me WAY too long to figure out what this icing says:

I won't spoil it for you. Just squint a little - you'll get it.

And my favorite:

Because unlike most of us today, this baker actually gave a crap.

Also maybe a little pee.

Thanks to Rachael G., Alicia P., Melissa C., Ellen M., Laurie P., Jennifer L., Suzan M., & Elizabeth O., who know that one cake doesn't actually say anything, but who forgive me for trolling because I'M NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE HERE TODAY. I mean, ok, I am, but still. WHY DO I HAVE PANTS ON RIGHT NOW.

P.S. When you don't have a cake to express yourself, there's always this:

(Sorry I'm Late, I Didn't Want To Be Here T-shirt)

Comes in lots more colors and also mens' styles at the link.
