Beachy Peen

I like to call this one: "Or... not."

Bonus Monty Python Joke: "Prepare to wreck in 1... 2... 5!"

 

More baffling stock cake sayings:

"Help you Get over the hill!"

 

Eesh, makes you wonder what ever happened to plain ol' "Happy Birthday."

Oh right. That.

 

Sometimes a bakery display compels you to write bakery slogans in your head.
And by "you," I of course mean "me," because who else thinks about funny cakes this much? (No, really, TELL ME. I need more friends.)

ahem.

[dramatic announcer voice] "Come for the horrifying poop toad, stay for the buttfaces!"

Ok, so maybe I'll stay out of advertising. WHAT.

 

Ruh-roh, looks like little Bob-the-Minion accidentally floated over to the nude beach!

(Wait for it. Waaaait for it.)

(THERE IT IS.)

 

Thanks to Morgan D., Bree W., Denise G., Allegra G., & Shannon N. for keeping things beachy peen.

P.S. This crossbody bag is one of my all-time favorite purses, and comes in 36 different colors:

Crossbody Tassel Bag

It's surprisingly lightweight while feeling high-end, with a butter smooth zipper and beautiful crisp stitching. Most "medium" purses are too small for me, but this one is super roomy for all my gear, and has a handy front zip pocket I use for my phone. (Which fits even in my giant phone cases!)

The style works for dressing up or everyday, and I looove all the color options. I have the orange, which is currently sold out, but the kelly green and lemon yellow are next on my wish list. They also have hot pink, denim blue, red, and of course more neutral options. For less than $18, it's hard not to buy a bunch!

Sunday Sweets: Rockin' Rockabilly

Pin some victory rolls in your hair and break out the red lipstick, ladies, 'cuz today we're going ROCKABILLY.

(By Rock Cakes)

AW YEAH.

Rockabilly is a style from the 1950s that keeps coming back, hipper than ever. There's a big rockabilly community in California, of course, but sometimes I spot those stylish lovelies even down here in Orlando. (Of course, usually they're at Disney... visiting from California.)

Rockabilly has a classic retro vibe mixed with punk rock edge that - who knew? - looks pretty dang Sweet on cake:

(By Laura Barton, I think. Anyone have a site for her?)

There are lots of elements to rockabilly: you've got a little classic 50s jukeboxes and milkshakes thang going:

A dash of the retro bowling shirt crowd:

And a healthy smattering of classic tattoo art and cute lady pin-ups:

(By Ivana Guddo)

Cherries, polka dots, and checkerboard are popular:

And there's also a big nautical influence, which I'm really diggin':

Check out this beauty someone's Super Mom got for Mother's Day:

(By Cake My Day)

A perfect homage to Rosie the Riveter!

It's probably no surprise that Rockabilly wedding cakes are on the rise:

(By Ben The Cake Man)

SO PRETTY.

I love all these reds and blues:

(By Black Cherry Cake Company)

But if you really want your wedding to be rock-and-roll, then this is my fav:

(By Sassa's Bespoke Cakes)

Check out that shading! SO GOOD. It's like a painting coming to life... during a shreddy guitar solo. :D

Happy Sunday, everyone!
