pretty cakes.

Though I'm not currently in the market for one, I've known for years what my dream wedding cake would look like. Years ago, it was love at first sight when I happened across a version of this cake in Martha Stewart's magazine. Its petals were shaded from pale to dark pink and was the most delicate and elegant thing I had ever seen. So when my dear friend Francina at OneGirlCookies created her own version for a customer last summer, I was very excited that this design was still around.

But today a new contender jumped in the ring. I was checking out Francina's website for a jolt of inspiration when I caught my breath upon opening this little beauty:

How gorgeous is this vintage-y, almost fabric-inspired cake?! The yellow is so happy and refreshing that I can't help but smile thinking about a giant slice.

And in other yellow cake news, check out this cake from LovinSullivanCakes!
