Sunday Sweets: Twilight

This week I've discovered that there are billions of Twilight cakes out there, most of which fall in the "regrettably hilarious" category. Granted, you can't expect fan cakes to be professional quality, but it did make finding the good Twilight cakes a bit of a chore. And then, most of the nice ones I found were one of two designs: either this...

(By Sweet Austin, who I think made it first.)

Or a book cake, like this:

Or this:

(Submitted by Annie, made by Cakes by Francesca)

I like how she used photocopied pages from the book on the cake board. It really adds to the presentation, don't you think?

Since I don't want to post a bunch of cakes in the same style, though, here are the best I could find in other designs:

(By Chocmocakes)

This one takes the book-cake idea and adds some great details:

(Made by Camille over on Twilighters Anonymous)

See the little fork? Cute!

A few cake artists did some impressive portrait work in buttercream. Check it out:

Others focused on the chess pieces from the latest cover, Breaking Dawn:

As always, if you know one of the bakers I don't have listed, please let me know!

And please, if there's to be any debate in today's comments, let it be over which cake is your favorite - not over the relative merits of the Twilight series, eh?

I hate Twilight, but DAMN those cakes looked good!

The cakes are okay, and while they're not the beautiful and original designs we usually see on Sunday Sweets, they're not really supposed to be. They're supposed to be recreations of the books or the actors, and they are-- pretty good ones, too. I hate Twilight and I am looking forward to next Sunday, but let's not sell these cakes or bakers short.

Except the gold-heart cake. That thing is a horrendous mess that I would feature in a weekday post. Eew. D:

I actually hate Twilight, but these cakes rule. My favorite is the chessboard one!

Although i greatly hate the retarded novel and movie twilight, those cakes look awesome.

I think that the cake done by Chocmocakes is more of a Tim Burton style. But it could be just me.
I like the books better but the media really ruined it so I don't want to read it anymore either. :( *tear* But it is only my opinion.

All the other cakes make me feel slightly queasy (or maybe it's Twilight?) The chessboard cake rocks- I officially claim it as not a Twilight cake but an Umineko no Naku Koro ni cake.

On cake or in photographs, Pattinson always looks creepy as all get out. .I hope they ate his face first so that he stopped staring with those "I own you" eyes.
