Sunday Sweets: Drama Queens

In a world ...
where it seemed ...
that most cakes were chewed first and THEN sold ...
one cake dared ...
to stand alone.
Made by Sylvia Weinstock Cakes for Jennifer Lopez's birthday
This summer ...
Sunday Sweets presents ...
the story of an elite group of renegade cakes ...
By Confectioneiress Cupcakes and Sweets
...who could no longer bear to stand idly by and watch the unknowing public be content with things like CUPCAKE CAKES, or NAKED CAKES, and instead decided to show the world, once and for all ...
What a freaking amazing cake really looks like.
With an all-star cast led by Tiersten Dunst, Garnish Paltrow, and Jane Fondant, with a special appearance by Posh Spice,
it's ...
By Anna Elizabeth Cakes, as featured in Wedluxe magazine
DRAMATICAKES.
Prepare to be amazed,
enthralled,
flabbergasted...
and hungry.
Hold on to your seats, as this visual thrill-ride takes you beyond the average world of poorly-piped productions, and into a snowy scene where silvery footprints lead you through a filigree-framed trompe l'oeil forest:
Where larger-than-life seahorses actually *gasp* look like seahorses.
Where you'll find yourself asking in disbelief more than once ...
'Are those real?'
(I'm talking about the flowers, of course).
See why critics are raving:
"Two enthusiastic forks up!"
"I was on the edge of my plate!"
"The taste good movie of the year!"
DRAMATICAKES.
Coming soon ...
To a bakery near you.
(If you're lucky).

OMG those look amazing :O
OHhh. .......yes. I would walk barefoot through a frosted forest forever.....(if it had chocolate in it).
I'd even be willing to share...(I guess I'd have, to, since the other prints are going the same way....)! =^~.~^=
Wow, Absolutely takes my breath away. I am always enchanted by the Sunday cakes, but this week's lineup is beyond beautiful.
Thank you for sharing them with us.
I'd love to see the first cake with all those candlrs lit.
I love it when the writing is as wonderful as the cakes. Great post, Lindsey!
I'm flabbergasted by the seahorse, but my absolute favourite is the third cake down, with the pink roses and "falling dots". (Technical expression, there.) No special effects, no fancy stuff, but absolutely stunning.
I feel like such a horrible person. I loved the pink and white, the seahorse, and the forest.The others? Hated them. To me they were overdone, tacky, and cluttered. I fully admire the artistry and talent it took to design and make them. But they just weren't for me.
Anybody else looking for a lamp-post on cake #5? Could that be...Spare Oom?
the cakes are breathtaking works of art indeed but i always wonder how they taste. taste is equally important when it comes to cake.
The filigree forest makes me think of Narnia, but I'm not sure why! The sea horse- is that cake!? What is keeping him upright? I like the yellow one, too!
What a bunch of stunning,knockout cakes!
Is it wrong that I want to see cake-wrecker versions of these during the week?
I thought #4 was my favorite Sunday Sweet ever, until I saw #6. Trompe l'oiel, IN CAKE! I just finished cleaning up from a GoT themed dinner to celebrate the start of the new season. That cake would have made a perfect ending. Winter is Coming!
Amazing cakes - my fave is the yellow one (which I have sub-titled, Van Gogh in the kitchen) - but I have to admit, the chocolate/rose/flower cake scares me a little... it looks beautiful and SO yummy and chocolately - but I am picturing a cake-wrecker seeing it and thinking "that's a good idea," and there is only one way that can go!
Wow! Just wow!
And, yes, I got a Narnia vibe off the footprints in the snow too.
Perfection, every one of them.
Cupcake cakes are a travesty and should be banned.
The top cake is so majestic!
The tulips are AMAZING
Now those are cakes worth paying for (if you can afford them)!
