Sunday Sweets: Leggo My LEGO

For all you parents who think your kids have nothing but LEGO on the brain:

Found here, and made by Sweet on Cake
They do.

 

Or, ok, at least sometimes it seems that way. But really, who can blame them? And who can resist a cake made of LEGO that is actually cake?

Part of me wants to play with that forklift. The other part wants a fork and a glass of milk.

 

The classic primary color bricks are still the most popular, of course:

But now there are also pretty pastels out from the new LEGO Friends line:

Not to mention those mini-figs sure have come a long way, am I right? I love the little shoes.

 

The most popular LEGO series, though - at least going by the amount of cakes I've seen for it - is Ninjago:

These little ninjas are EVERYWHERE. In fact, there's probably one behind you. You just can't see him, because he's a ninja. And also probably really small.

 

Then there are the LEGO video games, which have taught us that every beloved movie character is at least 43% cuter when LEGO-fied:

"Cakes. Why did it have to be cakes?"

:D

Here's a Sweet for a real LEGO wizard:

LEGO love isn't just for kids, though, and I have the wedding cakes to prove it!

Don't you love the brick borders? Such a fun touch!

 

Or for something a little less subtle and a lot more WOW:

WOW. Look at those details!

Now there's a wedding built on a firm foundation of fun, fondant, and... er... flowers. Love it.

Happy Sunday!

P.S. Speaking of flowers, have you seen the ones made out of LEGO? 'Cuz they are SO COOL:

LEGO Flower Bouquet Building Kit

Such a sweet gift idea. I like how you have to do a double take to realize what they're made of!
