Breakfast Cake in Bed

What could possibly be better than breakfast in bed? Breakfast in bed that's actually cake, that's what. When I tell you that what you're looking at is in fact entirely edible I mean it is in fact ENTIRELY edible. I know what you're thinking. Of course it's edible, it's breakfast! No, I mean nothing that you are looking at is what is seems, it is all re-created from sugar, right down to the plate, glass and yes even that shabby chic wooden breakfast tray. So when you bite into this delightful creation your taste buds are going to be uber confused.

I have to tell you that when I first saw this cake I was going back and forth trying to decide if the tray was part of the cake or not, I genuinely was faked out. I could tell the handles were real so thought the tray must be too, then I noticed the cake board at the very bottom and that is truly the only thing that gave it away. Bravo Liz, bravo.

Breakfast in Bed Cake

Pancake cakes have been popular for quite some time now and gravity defying cakes have always been popular. Put them together and you have a shoe in for success.

This little ensemble right here is just incredible in itself. NONE of what is on that plate is savory. When you dive into this plate you will be tasting gummy bears, cookies and just all out sugar. Did I mention you can even eat the plate?
