Back Off, Man. I'm A Baker.

Are you bothered by strange noises in the middle of the night?

Plus rampant rodent droppings?

Do you experience feelings of dread in your basement, attic, or bakery?

"You guys, I have a feeling there's something really creepy below us..."

"SEE?!"

Have you or any of your family ever seen a spook, specter, or super sarcastic ghost?

"Like, boo, or whatever."

How about an entire tray of cupcakes giving you the finger?

If the answer is yes then don't wait another minute! Pick up the phone and call the prefessionals.

P.S. Now that it's *almost* scarf weather in Florida let me show you my new favorite find:

The CVS Receipt Scarf

Y'all. It's soft, it goes with everything, and it's a giant CVS receipt. Talk about the best reveal when someone compliments your look!

Sunday Sweets: Spooky Elegant Halloween Cakes

It's the most wonderful time of the year, cake lovers: that blessedly spooky season when we can shop for Halloween and Christmas decorations all at the same time.

I'm getting ahead of myself, though; Halloween isn’t ‘til tomorrow, which means today we can still glam it up with spooky sweet wedding cakes! Like this gorgeous Gothic number:

[By ArchiCAKEture in Bulgaria]

Look closely; two of those "rubies" are really a vampire love bite!

Or, if you prefer a partner who keeps you in stitches:

(By Cakes By Summer in Texas)

Loving that black-and-white gradient with the little red hearts. So classic and monstrously sweet.

I don't think this next one's a wedding cake, but wouldn't it be cool if it were?

(By Sweet Art Cakes in California)

After all nothing says "welcome home, newlyweds" like a happy little haunted house.

Or should I say, "Haunted Mansion?"

(By Jam Cakes in the UK)

Yep, I spy the iconic HM wallpaper in there! Great skull cameos on the swags, too, though I can't help wishing the toppers were the Bride & Groom from the ride.

Aha, but here comes the next best thing: skeletal Marie Antoinette style bride!

[By Monika Arispe in the UK]

And I think she may be floating?! Awwwwesome.

Another non-wedding cake that COULD be a wedding cake if the couple is stylin' enough:

(By Karen Dodenbier, hobby baker in the Netherlands)

Poppies! Aww, I love poppies. And look at the spiderwebs!

This lovely is from a Maleficent themed wedding shoot:

(By Sweet Tooth Confections in CA, featured here)

That dark forest vibe is gorgeous!

Here come a couple of love birds:

(By Zoe Byres in Australia)

And they're nestled inside a carved tree trunk of cake!
Such a clever design, it's like a cake shadowbox.

I'll admit it would take a very unique and/or brave bride to choose a Black Widow spider cake for her wedding cake, but HEAR ME OUT:

(By Carolinchens Zuckerwelt in Germany)

See? That could be the groom on the side! :D :D :D

Or you could go with something dark and dreamy:

(By Sweet And Swanky Cakes in Oregon)

I love the reflective gold accents - and that lace! Wowza.

And finally, a half-floating Gothic tower that manages to look surreal and romantic all at the same time:

(By Kek Couture in Turkey)

Jaw: dropped. The more I look, the more I see to love: the hidden damask pattern, the velvety green ombre, and that intricate lace-wrapped base. AHHH-mazing, and the perfect wedding cake for any modern Morticia and Gomez. ;)

I hope you guys enjoyed! Have a sweet Sunday, and a happy Halloween!

P.S. I have to show you my Fall pillows, because AHHHHH they make me happy:

These are all pillow covers, actually, which means they're cheaper and easier to store, a win-win.

Here's the other couch, with a bonus Suki:

Those velvet pillows are so soft and cozy. The cats are jealous; I keep petting the pillows instead. :p

Again, these are pillow covers, so I covered what we already had, then snagged a couple $3 thrift pillows to round out the set. HIGHLY recommend - and here come the Amazon links!

- 4-pack of 18-inch Maple Leaf covers

- 2-pack of 20-inch velvet orange covers

- Black Cat & Pumpkins cover
