Sunday Sweets Gets OVER DRAMATIC

There's a place for casual elegance, but sometimes you want something a little more... elaborate. Something bold, something over-the-top. Something that grabs your eyeballs by the collar and slaps 'em around a bit - in a good way.

You know, like this:

BOOYAH.

So good.

You want sparkles?
We've got sparkles:

(By Artisan Cake Company)

Booyah AGAIN.

Think you need a big cake to make a big statement? Think again:

(By Modern Lovers)

This little gem packs a pretty punch!

It doesn't get more classic than black, white, and lipstick red:

(By Very Unique Cakes)

Or, for that matter, black, white, and gold:

(By MILA)

Here's the same color palette with a little more joie de vivre:

(By JT Cakes)

Ahhh, Paris. Where even the streetlights cast little heart shadows. (So cute!)

I just realized most of these have been on the dark side so far - but believe me, you don't need any color at all to make jaws drop:

(By Cakes Decor member Beth)

This drama queen is a vision in ruffles!

Or how about this snow white wonder:

(By Bobette and Belle)

That hand-piped lace is blowing my mind.

Now add a bold pop of red swirly flowers:

(By Made With Love)

And don't forget a little a lot of bling!

(By Practical Imperfect Mom)

And one final statement piece proves that not all that glitters is gold:

(By Fine Cakes by Zehra)

Sometimes it's silver.

:D

Happy Sunday, everyone!
