Woke up this morning to find this adorable little guy on my news feed! Actually – given the  flower on the mantle, puckered lips and rosy hue, this guy might just be a girl, but who am I to sex octopus cupcakes? This isn’t the first time we’ve featured Ceph-inspired baking creations, (I still vote that Blue Ring cake should be served at MACNA) but it certainly is the most whimsical cupcake I’ve seen! Tragically, when I tried to contact Cotton Candy Bakeshop, they appear to no longer be operating. Here’s to hoping they’re simply taking a break – all that cuteness has got to be overwhelming. Not to be left out, flocks of teeny penguins assume their sugary positions, and a dive-themed cupcake tower may just be what I have as my next birthday cake (no need to point out this particular one was designer for a toddler). Hope this sweetens up your day! (Note: I cannot be held responsible for your diabetic coma – cupcake responsibly)
