DESSERT IN BLOOM

You all know how much I love florals, so I just had to try one of these amazing cakes I've seen all over Instagram! To create this one, I took inspiration from my Food Network friend Molly Yeh (whose color palette is a little more subdued than mine and from blogger and cake decorator Whitney DePaoli at sugarandsparrow.com. You can customize the colors and design however you like: Try a mix of pastels or go with ombré colors, and make the flowers any size—it's totally up to you! - Ree
