Sunday Sweets Gets Suspended!
April 2, 2017 But not like that.
Like this!
;)
Yes, today is all about cakes enchanted by Molly Weasley, because CLEARLY there is magic at work here. Beautiful, delicious magic.
FACT: Everything is more adorable round. Even elephants.

They remind me of the Rollin' Safari videos. (Which I just had to go watch again.) Cracks me up every. single. time.
And this one looks like a surrealist painting:

Now, your moment of Zen:

How can something be so peaceful and mind-blowing at the same time?
The rock garden base! The natural textures! Stone, moss, wood - there are even tiny lily pads in the center. WOW.
Then there's this:

I've seen a lot of suspended pour cakes, peeps, but this? This is the best one. Look closely; the cream is even splashing UP off the strawberries!
A cake doesn't have to float to break my brain, though; sometimes it can just be a perfectly balanced circle:
;)
What do you guys think of that design? Funky cool, right? I love the dots.
Right, you know the drill:
;)

Dewalt, I believe? :D
So a drill is a hard thing to sculpt anyway, but then to levitate it? And use the "sawdust" to spell out "Dad"? GENIUS.
I was so distracted by all the cute on this next one it took me a minute to realize how clever the construction is:
;)
(By Sharon Wee, Faye Cahill, Anna Maria, and Margie Carter)
I'm pretty sure that mouse is NOT holding up the cake slice; it's being supported through the cake itself. Which is incredible.
And one last gravity-defying show-stopper for your Sunday:
;)
(By Sweet Temptations)
I see ocean waves carrying flowers - how about you? And look at that tiny point supporting the entire structure, which is perfectly straight! Ahhh-mazing.
Hope you enjoyed getting suspended with Sweets today! Happy weekend, everyone!

Simply unbelievable! Fantastic! Mind-blowing! There aren't enough superlatives in my vocabulary for this collection. The little mice, the drill, the bowl of strawberries, the mixer - do I have to pick just ONE favorite?
OMG those are true examples of cake art :O that one with the spray cans is AMAZING. I am also in love with the cream and berries cake :O
Thank you for these fabulous cakes!
The magician who made the strawberries and cream cake has the tutorial on her website. Seeing how it was done makes it no less magical. In fact, looking at all of her cakes (even the ones that don't defy gravity) makes me even more convinced; surely no one mere human being can possess that much talent - I'm sure she studied pastry arts at Hogwarts!
Those cakes are ally jawdropping amazing!!
WELL!!
They're ALL insane.
But the insane-est one to me is fourth from last (Circle of Love)....
I scrolled up, and down...up, and down...looking at it....and I swear those concentric circles were pulsating!!!
Just magical.
!=^~.~^=!
Those were amazing. The mice got me to squee, though.

So it seems the graffiti cake is by Mike's Amazing Cakes.
Mike's has done a birthday cake for a Sofie before.
Master Bakers. <snigger>
How do you cut these?!
Wow, that first one is so meta.
How DO you make a cake that seems to float in midair? For there to be so many kinds there has to be a technique to keep the thing from falling over, but what?
Absolutely jaw-dropping! They're all gorgeous, but if I could have just one, it would be those adorable mice. Even though I'm a power tool junkie.
Even though you're famous for your puns, "You know the drill" caught me by surprise (and made me laugh out loud). It's so hard to believe it's a cake - they got everything right. I say this as a professional miniaturist.
wow. just wow! and hats off to the creators of these works of art!!!
Those are some awesome cakes!!!! Totally unbelievable, and breathtakingly beautiful! I bow to these artists 👏🍰🤗🙂
These are wonderful! Thank you for sharing these- what a nice thing to enjoy!
Absolutely beautiful fantastic cakes
The graffiti cake was made by Mike's Amazing Cakes.
Yep, the graffiti one is Mike McCarey. It's structural perfection. It's not on his site and hard to source because he posted it briefly to FB but then took it down...when I mentioned to him recently he was surprised anyone had seen it!
I need someone to give me all of these. I especially love the elephants. I don't really understand how you'd cut some of them but they;re so cool you maybe wouldn't want to cut them!
I want to take that zen one and spin it slowly so I can see it from all angles!
