Succulent Cakes Will Be at Weddings Everywhere This Summer

From unicorn frappes to fairy gardens, it’s clear that what the world needs now is whimsy, sweet whimsy. The latest trend to join the fun? Edible desert-inspired cakes, adorned with stunning cacti and succulent frosting details. Pin away, consult thine caterer and prepare for a magical summer evening. 

These Gorgeous “Brushstroke Cakes” Are Everything


Respect to the baker who pulled off these crawling cacti vines.

And the culinary genius who even fashioned a cement planter from frosting.

These cacti cupcakes might actually be too cute to eat.

Ditto these simple miniature wedding cakes.

Two cake trends at once? Totally works when those trends are translucent frosting paired with succulent decorations.

No, that’s not your bouquet (but we kinda wish it was).

Succulents even look incredible as a 3-D appliqué on a more traditional wedding cake.

We seriously almost watered these.

BRB, rethinking our entire wedding theme around these beauties.
