The llama stick looked like this, btw:

Except this one is CAKE. (Eeee!) Still, you can see why I was intrigued; this is possibly the greatest video game accessory/weapon of all time.
I haven't actually played Fortnite myself yet, but I have friends who do (yes, ADULT friends, don't look at us like that) and I am ready. for. this.
But first, here come more cakes you will crave... FORTNIGHTLY.

Ohh, smoking treasure chest! Those are gingerbread planks covering a cake base, and I love the big cartoony proportions, so fun.

Which brings a whole new, spectacular meaning to "bite the bullet." Mmmm. Don't mind if I do.
If there's one thing I know about Fortnite, it's that it doesn't matter who wins or loses. What matters is how cool your outfit is:

I will also accept Tomato Head.

Those details are all hand-piped on cookies, and WOW.
Hang on, you've gotta see this closer:
Awe. Struck. That's me.
And finally, let's get back to my favorite part: the llama.
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH.

AAAAAAA!! Ok, I don't care that I haven't played yet and have zero context for this; I'm still gonna need this cake. :D
And one final bonus goodie: I never ever do this, but as I was writing today's post two of my friends debuted their new t-shirt design, and it's too perfect to not share:
Yaaaas. Not sponsored or anything, and in fact they have no idea I'm doing this, which makes it more fun. Anyway, you can grab one - and support two awesome artists - right here.
Happy Sunday!
