As you may have guessed - today is my birthday! I am 25 - halfway to 50 or a quarter of a century and am spending it this year out at camp. My family has all gathered with my Grandfather to celebrate our birthday (he and I share) and I'm disappointed that I can't be there with them.
Since I don't have access to a kitchen or a store to make/buy a cake I am going to share some cake pictures with you. All of these are from the Cut Out+Keep website and were made by members. You should check it out! It is a really great online community where you can share your crafts and gain inspiration from those of other people.
I love Sushi so much so it is no surprise that the first cake I am featuring is a Sushi Cake! This is one of the coolest cakes I have seen around. You can find it HERE on Cut Out+Keep OR you can find it HERE at Shrimp Salad Circus the blog of CO+K member Lindsay. She provides a How-To so you can make one yourself!
Next on the menu is an adorable apple cake! Can you believe this cake? It looks so real! The inside is my favourite - chocolate. This cake is from CO+K member Ashes. You can view the original HERE .
Who doesn't love a chocolate cake? I know I do! This one looks absolutely delicious. The cake uses fondant ribbons and is from CO+K member Jean. You can see it HERE. Jean has made so many beautiful cakes! I would love to (someday) be able to do this myself.
This next darling cake is too darling for words! I have never seen an owl cake done like this before- very chic. I may have to have this made for me next year.... You can find this cake by CO+K member Peptogirl HERE or on her blog Style Crush - HERE.
And last but not least - a modern cake made for someone else named Lydia! I can always pretend that it was made for me though. This cake was made by CO+K user Popsicali and can be found HERE. I like the elegant and clean style used to decorate it - simple and no fuss. Also I like pink.
I hope the rest of you are enjoying this lovely Sunday as much as I am.
Don't forget to cheer for your favourite team in the World Cup Final today!
