The idea of Angry Birds in cake form seems to have taken flight since we last posted about the playable Angry Birds cake. They are being hatched in their dozens.
Realising this the folks in the Angry Birds nest over on Facebook have put together a gallery of AB cakey goodness. There are some sweet renditions of the Feathers vs Swine battle. Sales of green food colouring and mouldable icing must be sky-rocketing.
Mid-week blues getting you down? Cheer yourself up by getting in that kitchen and whipping up a batch of scones so you can stuff your face with a tasty treat to get you through to the weekend. And not just any scones either.
This recipe for Pear, Ginger and Brown Butter Scones from Elizabeth Miller over at Indie Fix is easy peasy and produces enough scones to last the week. Although I reckon you'll probably eat them all long before then. Yum.
For everyone missing the crew of the good old starship Serenity here's a Whedon-flavoured icing-covered treat from Vivian's Blog-o-rama: fabulous Firefly Cupcakes.
From a behatted Jayne to gun-toting Mal (Nathan Fillion and cake. Win!) and Zoe, to Wash complete with tiny dino, these are possibly the shiniest gorram cupcakes in the universe! Wonder if the lucky cupcake getter felt a bit Reaver-like when they ate them...
Eggs, bunnies and sweet stuff everywhere? Why not rustle up a batch of Easter Basket Cupcakes with the help of the brilliant Bakerella.
Happy Easter, Crafty Crafters. Don't eat all that chocolate at once.
Which would you prefer, an Easter egg or a cupcake? Why choose when you can have a cupcake with an Easter egg centre from Zoey Cakes.
Check out the cake gallery for more sweet inspiration too.
