gourmet cookie bouquets
Evergreen Cake Toppers
Evergreen from Astor Chocolate

Nearly everyday I either see or hear about truly amazing dessert and food inspiration and I thought I should dedicate a section on the blog just for it. Plus, I love when a bride and groom goes for something a bit untraditional and puts their own twist on the wedding food. Maybe instead of cakes, they choose pies for dessert. Or, several wedding cakes displayed on cake pedestals. Or, maybe it's a self-serve taco bar for dinner. Whatever it might be, I'll start showcasing some great wedding food for you here {with recipe links when available}.

And . . . I also have the Sweet Treats Directory. This is a growing list of bakeries, cupcakeries and cookie shops across the US, Canada and International countries. If you would like to be listed, please submit your sweet shop here.

Edible Eye Candy : v61 {strawberry doughnut cake, aka bundt cake}

Isn't this cake amazing?!?!?! It's actually a bundt cake made to look like a doughnut. I've got strawberries on my mind today as I'll be baking away in preparation for my daughter's 5th birthday party tomorrow which is Strawberry Shortcake themed. There will be 6 girls coming with their mothers or fathers and I'll be making cupcakes per my daughter's request. But, I sure wish I was making this cake - hmmmm, maybe for her actual birthday on Monday when my parents come over. It's so cute to not make at some point this weekend. This strawberry doughnut cake with recipe can be found on Raspberri Cupcakes - which has quickly become a new favorite baking blog of mine.

Featuring a Halloween cake seems like the only way to go today since Monday is the day. When I spied this cake on Half Baked I knew it was the perfect cake to feature today. I love the harlequin pattern with the witch silhouette. The cake is from Contemporary Cakery.
