Saint Patrick's Day is coming, but it's a rare treat to find a cake as elegant as this Claddagh design for the holiday:

Who needs flowers with clovers this sweet?

 

So rather than featuring all Leprechauns and pots of gold, today I'm also mixing in some gorgeous wedding cakes in one of my favorite colors:

GREEN!

 

There's something so cheerful about bright emerald green, am I right?

Aaaahhh.

I APPROVE.

 

In fact, since you really can't have a St. Patrick's Day celebration without at least ONE rainbow...

...here's a cake with ALL the rainbows. [squee!]

In fact, you can keep your pot o' gold, Mr. Leprechaun; I'll just take this cake.

 

Happy Sunday, everyone!
