Ah, I love these cake toppers:


What's that you say? Not geeky enough. Alright, try these on for side:


Secret agent robots?!

Super cute, though now that I think about it do you want to bring the possible robot apocalypse into your wedding day?

That's a Sweet Cake

Cool right? Instructions and more pictures on Omnomicon.

You have to admit, if our beautiful multi-layered white cake were cut open to reveal a rainbow, it'd be pretty cool...

I Also Love the Duckies

The Frenchie and I just spent out third Valentine's together and, as has become tradition, it involved sushi.

So, in that vein, please enjoy this sushi wedding cake:

According to the designer, the bulk of this "cake" is apparently made up of sushi rice (sturdy enough to form stable rounds). Regular cake pans were used for molds onto which was added huge quantities of salmon, yellowtail and ahi, each placed carefully in the bottom of each cake pan.

You can see a recipe for the cake along with the photos of the finished product here.

Found on SlashFood.

I Found It!

Imagine that shape, in carrot cake. Mmmmmmmmm!

Thoughts On Cake

So one of the things I really can't get excited about is wedding cake. I don't get it. I don't get spending tons of money on what is - essentially - a very expensive dessert.

Here is one of the few I've seen that I find stylish: I like that it's off white and I would replace the roses with ones from our florist in red and yellow, or the carnival that features both colors. I think it's just the angle of the picture, but I like that the cakes looks off center.

Still, if it were cheaper to get a plain white one, I don't know that I'd care. Guess we all have to decide what to splurge on (hello flowers and photos!).

One thing I really don't get about weddings is how expensive the cakes are. Sure, I love some of the creations I've seen and I do realize that some designs can take forever to put together, I just don't understand paying thousands of dollars when the cake is not - or at least should be not be - the centerpiece of the day. If my guests eat sheet cake but get to dance into the night I think my money will have been well spent.

Here's one alternative I think is nifty; cupcake bouquets!
