It was love at first sight when I found this unique cake by ThreeLittleBlackbirds. It is beautifully painted with a sweet bird motif, and the flavor– white chocolate and lavender cake with raspberry curd and white chocolate ganache– sounds amazing!

This Santa’s toy shop cookie by SugarRushCustomCookies reminds me of those lovely candle holders that come out at Christmas– the ones shaped like snow-covered shops and whose windows glow when you light the candle. This cookie perfectly conveys the warmth and cheer of the season with its exquisite painting.

Andi’s Faves:

I adore this cake covered in sewing notions made by rosiemaguire. It’s a sweet, personalized birthday cake that I’m sure the recipient loved.

I couldn’t help but smile when I saw TheSweetestTiers’ “significant prize” cookies. A Christmas Story is one of my favorite holiday movies, and these cookies perfectly captured the humor of it.
