Traditional cakes are awesome, sure, but sometimes you want a crisp, modern twist:

Those paper-like bubbles add just the right amount of interest - no color needed!
But for those who want ALL the colors, I've got something for you, too:

Graphic, geometric, and totally groovy.
(Look closely; there are patterns embossed in the pixels!)
This pinwheel cascade is the stuff chevron-covered dreams are made of:

Ruffly swirl goodness!
But perhaps you prefer something a bit more awesomely angular. Even, dare I say, spectacularly spiky?

It's modern art come to life - and ready to be plated.
Speaking of art, here's one that looks like an edible, 3D oil painting:

Plus: Poppies! My favorite!
These asymmetrical petals remind me of Old Hollywood glamour:

Can't you just see this as a satin dress from the 1920s?
(And notice that oh-so-subtle peach ombre coloring. Beautiful.)
Color, whimsy, and more impressive patterns:

Love how most of the color is blowing off the cake - and how it takes an extra moment to see all the white-on-white designs.
And finally, some superb swoopiness with just the right balance of modern and traditional:

That pink ruffle bit is blowing my mind. Love how it bridges that bold, modern cube pattern with the delicate flowers! SO GOOD.
Hope you guys have a Sweet Sunday!
