Utterly fantastic cakes! Wow!!
Beautiful, clever narration as always Sharyn.
Those trees! Those trees! Those Truffula Trees!!! I love Dr. Seuss!! Thanks Jen!
Sharyn, another wonderful poem!
The details on these cakes is amazing. Even the Grinch makes an appearance!
Awwww :D
That Lorax face looks like it could talk! Amazing!
Wow! Just wow.
I think I'm going to hunt around and see where our Dr. Seuss books got to. These are wonderful.
Here in Southwest Washington, it's traditional for a local restaurant to serve a green eggs & ham breakfast to schoolkids. They started many years ago with one school on March 2nd, but it has expanded to all area & three surrounding towns' schools too (sometimes on other days for convenience; for example, my princess' breakfast was Friday). Parents are invited & it has become a big deal. Volunteers serve up green eggs & ham & give out Cat-In-the-Hat style chapeaus.
After eating my share of green eggs & ham (harder than you think when you're faced with it), I'm with Sam-I-Am--I really don't want to eat them ANYWHERE. But I do, for the kids. And lots of kids think they're awesome! So I'm glad it happens, despite private objections.
Long live Beaches restaurant!
Is it possible for something more than perfect? If so, every one of these cakes, and the poem that accompanies them have achieved that. But my favorite has to be the green eggs and ham tier on cake number 8.
Thanks for my favorite blog, Jen (and John (hubby of Jen))
Thanks for the post and the poem, Sharyn
Thanks for the cakes, master bakers too numerous to name here
Happy Birthday, Theodor Geisel
The cakes are beautiful, and the running commentary is perfect!
I think that Dr. Seuss may be one of the most creative people ever. Cake + Dr. Seuss theme = Wowza!
😊😊😊

Those Dr Suess cakes are a sweet treat
But at last they're too cute to eat.
Those are awesome! I love Sundays.
Cakes like these make me so happy to share my Britney with Dr. Seuss... And now I want of these... Or all!
I missed these yesterday (Sun.). :-( I was almost sure that the fifth one was going to be "Bartholomew and the Oobleck," because of all the gooey gloppy green guck, but I got it got it grossly wrong! They're all amazing! Thanks, Sharyn!
Thanks to my drive-to-work playlist, I read the post in tune with "The Scotsman" and it works very well that way - ring-di-diddly-i-o!
These cakes are amazing! Such talented artists. Thank you for posting.
Those are fantastic! I loved reading Dr Seuss when I was a kid and got quite a collection for my kids when they were little. Got my smile on for the day!
