Gilt-y Pleasures

If you're groaning over "Gilt-y Pleasures," then I have a subtitle for you:
"If it ain't Baroque, don't fix it."

:D

I know, I know, but I think you'll forgive me once you see today's cakes - because these things are seriously amazing.

Sha-POW! See what I mean?

 

Here's a Pretty in pink:

Oooh, and this one has a hand painted room inside it:

Look at all the moldings! And the little chandelier! Ah!

Timeless.

 

Here's another with a little chandelier room inside!

This is absolutely stunning, you guys. Look at the hand painted panels! And all the trim and "fabric" draping! WOWIE.

 

Meanwhile, these soft pastels are singing my song:

...by which I mean ALL the glitz. Love that mosaic texture mixed with all the trim and moldings!
