\"Lollipop<\/a><\/p>\n

Of all the cake trends of the moment, this is Cake Geek’s favourite for a big celebration.\u00a0 Whether is a children’s party or for an adult who’s still a kid at heart, these are statement cakes\u00a0no matter what the celebration.<\/p>\n

The cake above left is by the talented Kathy Dvorski in Toronto and very cleverly combines three celebrations in one cake – a tier for each party girl.<\/p>\n

The middle cake is based on the story of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and is by the wonderful Elisa Strauss at Confetti Cakes New York.\u00a0 The design is featured in her book – Confetti Cakes for Kids which you can buy here: Confetti Cakes For Kids<\/a>\"\".<\/p>\n

The final cake is by the super cool Duff Goldberg at Charm City Cakes<\/a>.\u00a0 It’s probably our favourite of the three lollipop cakes because it has that cute “icing dripping over the side” fondant overlay\u00a0effect.<\/p>\n

To make “swirl”\u00a0lollipops Butter Heart Sugar<\/em> has a tutorial here<\/a>\u00a0on making them from cookie dough which you can substitute with sugarpaste or fondant.\u00a0\u00a0Or for the real thing, you can buy them here: Swirl Lollipops<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

And for the “icing dripping over the side” effect we love so much\u00a0on the Charm City Cake, you’ll find a tutorial here<\/a> from Rose Bakes<\/em>.<\/p>\n

If you really want to go crazy with colours, here’s a selection of candy cakes and lollipop cakes from the Pink Cake Box in New Jersey for inspiration:<\/p>\n

If, however, you like the idea of swirl lollipops as a cake decoration, but only need to make a one-tier cake, this cake design by Bake\u00a0Decorate Celebrate\u00a0incorporates lollipops as a cake topper and still has all the candy land magic! Zoe Clark of The Cake Parlour, London, features\u00a0the beautiful candy cake below\u00a0in her latest book available here: The Cake Parlour Sweet Tables<\/a>\"\".<\/p>\n
