Via Cake Nouveau Site
As you may already know, I love baked goods. One of my previous posts was about these awesome Nightmare Before Christmas cakes that I had found and absoultely loved. And then there was the adorable Cookie Monster Cupcake too. I have found a couple of neat little sites that have some amazing and hilarous baked items that you might enjoy. Also, since I posted a couple of neatorific TNBC cakes earlier, here is another one from CakeNouveau.com that is fantastic.
These little cupcake cuties came from Bakerella’s site on blogspot. She even has some instructional posts on how to make other too-pretty-to-eat baked goods. I would try to make some like these but would most likely fail miserably. And speaking of fail, CakeWrecks site has some of the funniest cake disasters I’ve ever seen. You know how your local grocery store has sometimes that bizzare “specialty” cake that you can’t quite make out? Well this site has tons of photos from grocery stores and other bakeries cake mishaps.

So, my b-day is still a ways away but it’s always good to plan ahead. I have been thinking about what kind of cake I want. I had originally decided on a peanut-butter cup cheesecake from this awesome cheesecake place downtown. I had a slice around Christmas and fell in love with it. But then I thought I would just check out some cakes around the net and see if there was anything interesting.
Luckily I found two amazing Nightmare Before Christmas cakes that are too incredible to eat. The flickr account they are on has many other great cakes but these are my favorites. They probably cost a fortune or are one of a kind so I won’t hold my breath for these babies on my special day.
Jack, The Pumpkin King
I would love to be a baker and make wonderful cakes like these but I’m not much of a cook to be honest. I am learning but still sticking to the box-cakes for now. My last “masterpiece” consisted of a box of cake mix and a can of icing. I did try to make it pretty though!
And speaking of The Nightmare Before Christmas, I heard that at last years San Diego Comic-Con they were selling an actual set piece of the original TNBC. It was very expensive but if I had the money to buy it I would have. That is one of my all time favorite movies. Even though the 3-D version made me a little dizzy. I learned then that the paper-3D glasses suck an the plastic ones rule.
