Flies On Walls, Cats on Cakes... MASS HYSTERIA

Ever wish you were a fly on the wall in a bakery? 

I mean, first, all the cake you can eat with no bathing suit season, but also you'd hear the conversations that result in half the stuff on this blog.

Wouldn't it be nice to know EXACTLY what the customer said?

To have some record?

Not only that, but also HOW they said it?

Or if Sean Connery ever comes in?

(Her name is Jessica and this is my new favorite mystery.)

Heck, if we just had some tiny clue what the client wanted their cake for...

Maybe then we could make sense of the world!

But really, I just want to hear the order for this one:

I mean, what's it supposed to be? What's the occasion? Is it the cat's birthday? Is that cat food in the middle? (Hang on... repressing gag reflex...) Are those supposed to be cat toys? And if not, why is there a cat there?

I have so many more questions, y'all. Help me out by giving me your most insane theory/back story in the comments, maybe one of those will help me sleep tonight. :P

And thanks to Mary B., Anony M., Emily H., Shaina H., & Ernesto G. for the cakey cat-astrophe.

Sunday Sweets Never Had A Friend Like Me

Since Aladdin's live-action remake seems to be underwhelming the interwebz this week (I'm hearing a lot of "It was... fine?"), I thought I'd serve up a Sweet palate cleanser for you today. Or, if you don't need a palate cleanser, at least a trip down nostalgia lane.

Yep, you could say life is your restaurant... and I'm your maitre d'!

(Baker unknown. Help?)

See, just like that, I'm remembering the movie poster on my wall, my inexplicable love for Iago's grating sarcasm, and the need to belt out Whole New World with the rest of the girls in my class.

Good times.

(Sugar Top Cakes, Australia)

 For most of us Aladdin was really Genie's movie, though, and to this day I quote his lines WAY more often than is socially acceptable. It's part of my charm.

(Leru Cake, Russia)

Galaxy buttercream and a hand-painted palace?!

On a scale of 1-10, my dear cake, YOU are an 11.

Someone made a cake version of the Genie Funko Pop!

(Bolim Bolão Cakes, Brazil)

 "Say what you wish, it's yours, true dish!"

It's also sweet to see so many Jasmine cakes out there:

(Hanoli Cakes, Glendale, NY)

The crown! The scrolly borders!

Check out the layers inside these palace windows:

(Couture di Sucre, Puerto Rico)

 I do wish more of these included Rajah, though.

C'mon, how many princesses get their own pet TIGER?

Here come Jasmine and Genie together:

(Vaganova Alina, Russia)

Then this little Aladdin and Jasmine are SO CUTE, ermergersh:

(Lilli Jamaluddin, Malaysia)

Here's a more subtle take with just the palace and the lamp:

(Unforgedible Art, California)

That lace trim with the flowers is gorgeous!

And here comes the most perfect Genie face:

(La Torta Perfetta Cake Design, Italy)

Talk about your trunk space, check this action out!

 And finally, here comes the diamond in the rough that truly has it all, starting with the Cave of Wonders on the back!

My jaw is dropped just like that, ha. Look at all those details! Iago, Jafar, the little stone steps and barrel!

Ready to see the front?

(By Artcake in St. Petersberg, Russia)

Ta-daaa! RAJAH! And, you know, everyone else! The marketplace, the balcony, little Abu on the stairs... I'm out of words. This is INCREDIBLE.

Well gang, thank you for flying Magic Carpet Airlines, and hope you have a great week.

Thank you, g'bye! Thank you, g'bye now, thank you, g'bye!
