Sunday Sweets: Halloween Cuties!
October 21, 2018 Yassss, it's Halloween cake time! I look forward to these all year!
I like to split my favorite spooky sweets into two categories: cute and creepy. And this week we are all about the cute:
;)
(By Meng Jo Fong in Malaysia)
Who knew a stitched together monster could have such adorable widdle ears?
This roly-poly bat has a glitter bow tie:
;)
[By Whipped Bakeshop in Pennsylvania]
And the teeny wings! Ack!
Some lucky one-year-old got the world's most stylin' pumpkin cake:
;)
(By Jenny's Haute Cakes in Colorado)
The smaller pumpkin is the smash cake, but c'mon. How do you let anyone smash that?
This mechanical witch's hat has stolen my steampunk-loving heart:
;)
(By Roses & Bows Cakery in Ireland)
Change the hat a little, and it would work for Christmas, too!
Another adorable bat, because you can never have too many:
;)
(Baker unknown)
I'm pretty sure she wants a hug.
And now a boiling and bubbling surprise:
;)
(By Sugar & Spice Cakes in New Zealand)
This cauldron cake has a space inside for dry ice! SO COOL. (Pun intended.)
Anyone else like blending their holidays together a little? Because I want to hug this adorable gingerbread witch:
;)
(By Cake Central user Nadia38)
She looks like a soft plush doll! Someone needs to go pinch her cheek to make sure she's cake.
Loving the non-traditional colors on this one:

We need more teals and reds in our Halloween decorations, gang. And also black-cat-in-pumpkin cake toppers.
Ahhh, but you know what's even better than a black cat topper?
;)

THREE BLACK CAT TOPPERS!
("Three! Three cat toppers! Ah! Ah! Ah!")
And finally, feast your eyes on this most delightfully dapper steampunk Jack O' Lantern:
;)
(By The Violet Cake Shop in Ontario)
Actually, looking at that collar, maybe he's the Headless Horseman? Whichever, I LOVE HIM. So many gorgeous details, from the damask cake board to his tiny key nose! So, so gorgeous.
I hope you guys enjoyed! And be sure to check back next Sunday for my favorite creepy gothic beauties - including some fabulous Halloween wedding cakes!

Omg the cauldron! It looks like an experiment gone mad! XD
That last cake is a steampunk Halloween Eustace Tilly (the New Yorker’s iconic cover character). Consider:
- the top hat
- the monocle
- the high collar around a unnaturally* long neck
- the cravat
Traditionally, Eustace is peering through his monocle at a butterfly... wouldn’t it be cute if it were a tiny
bat??
* Or should I say... <I>supernaturally</I>?
I have to tell you that the one thing I look forward to every day is reading your blog. The cakes always give me a smile to start my day with. The crafts and instructions are always well written and easy to follow. Thank you.

Google can find the logo from your original IF you extract it and invert the colors so the line art is dark!
Jen, that witch's hat is magnificent - wouldn't it make a great project for Epbot?
now you need to find a cake with the Sesame Street Count on it!
I want those BOO cats in resin and ribbon to put on my mantlepiece every year. (Heck, I'd go for most of these cakes in resin miniatures. ESPECIALLY THE LAST.)
That wizard hat is how I imagine the hat or Merlin in The school for Good and Evil!
No, no, no! That widdle vampire bat is CLEARLY practicing its spooky skills. The proper response is: "Ah! Oh no, a scary vampire!"
i like that last one. it is kind of odd that it has two jacket (shirt?) collars though.
