professional cakes - cakes wrecks

Woohoo! Beach pail cupcakes? Now THAT is what I'm talking about.
(Yes, really; they're cupcakes!)

Or how about this fun Tiki party?


Such a great grad cake.


Proper summertime attire is essential, of course:


Those flip-flops look pillowy soft - and delicious.


And what's summer without your favorite Hawaiian shirt?




Love the colors.

Of course, beachy summer cakes can be elegant, too. Just look at this gorgeous wedding cake:

By Betty's Sugar Dreams

(Even the netting is edible; it's made from flexible icing!)


Or this one:


Ack! Seahorses! I LOVE SEAHORSES. And these are gorgeous - so delicately done.


These cookies make me want to melt:


And also maybe have a piña colada. On the beach. In Grand Cayman. Mmmm. Yeah.

Every single detail on this next cake is perfection:

By Sugar Siren Cakes

See the name spelled out in the open scallops? And the itty-bitty starfish? And the string of pearls? And the delicate flower petals? PERFECTION, I say.


And finally, my favorite:

The lace molding, the graduated colors, the shells and letters placed just-so on the "sandy" cake board...simply stunning. Cakes like these make me love my job. :)


Now, everyone raise your popsicles - and here's to a great summer!
