Cakes!! Yum!!

I have been planning for some time to blog a little about wedding cakes. Needless to say, I see a lot of them and they run the gamut from elegant to whimsical to downright funny. A recent groom's cake in the form of the Batman emblem prompted me to sit at the computer and pull up photos of some of the more memorable cakes from the last couple of years to share with you. Hope you're not too hungry when you finish looking at them.

The Batman groom's cake

Another favorite for the groom was this possum cake

This groom was obviously a policeman and I hope he likes donuts!!

This cake topper was bride and groom Pez dispensers

Cupcakes instead of

a wedding cake

This groom's cake with

the strawberries and

dark chocolate makes

me want to dive in

A German chocolate

groom's cake with orchids

These cakes are from

beach weddings at the Sanderling Inn in Duck

I love the icicles on this winter wedding cake

The stargazer lillies were

a pretty touch on this one

One of my favorite cakes --

simple and elegant. Also delicious, I'm sure,

since it was baked by Doris Riggs
from Nashville

I think it's so soft and pretty with this

tulle over the cake. It also helps

keep the bugs off the cake at an

outside wedding like this one

I've always gotten a lot of compliments

on this cake photo. I think everyone likes

the square shape and the colorful flowers.

Really pretty scrollwork in the

icing on this cake

Another beautiful cake -- this one

was baked by the bride's mother.

This is one of all-time favorite cakes. I love the cool, green color,

the miniature pears, the elegant cake stand. This one

was baked by Susan Joyner of Ahoskie.

If I left your cake out, I'm sorry. There are so many great ones and I tried to put together a group of cakes in a hurry.
