Sunday Sweets Goes Under The Sea
Today Sunday Sweets really takes a dive...
...into undersea sweetness!
Yep, we're going to celebrate all things beneath the waves, like colorful coral and friendly octopodes:

Enormous hump-backed blue whales:

And a little of everything, like in this gorgeous hand-painted vignette:
(By Fantasticakes Cecile Crabot)
Is it wrong to admit that *I* want this cake? Or at least all the googly-eyed creatures? SO CUTE.
Ooh, now check out this stylin' modern design:
(By Planet Cake)
That trail of bubbles? Genius.
Speaking of modern, I'm digging this abstract mermaid and starfish topper:
(By Gulnaz Mitchell Cake Design)
It almost has a stained glass feel to it, right?
LOVE the colors in this stack of sea urchins:
(By Cakelava)
If you look closely, you can see colorful little fish near the base, too!
Of course we can't have an "Under the Sea" theme without a certain red-headed mermaid:
(By Fabricake, based on the art of Tim Shumate)
She's just a bit more grown-up in this version. ;)
I like how the art is layered to give it depth, almost like a paper-cutting.
What else do you find under the sea? Ship wrecks and pirate treasure, of course!
(By Roses & Bows Cakery)
The aging on this is beeeeeaauuutiful. The sprinkling of sand! The curled up "map!" I even like the green snaily guy.
And finally, the ultimate undersea Coral Reef cake:
(By Cakes By Kim Simons)
Complete with a swimming sea turtle topper!
There's so much to see on this one, I'm *still* finding hidden fish. And do I spy little moray eels?
Sweeeeet.
Happy Sunday, everyone!

P.S. Clearly you need some classic cat-eye sunnies for the beach this summer:
