Ballerina Inspired Sweets

June 9, 2011 by Carrie Sellman

What little girl doesn’t love to dance?  And as big girls, we all look back fondly on our first dance class… the tutus, the tights, our hair swept back into a neat little bun.  Maybe it’s because of the movie Black Swan.  Maybe it’s because dancers are the ultimate image of elegance and grace.  But girls of all ages are enamored with ballerinas and we see this theme spreading into events everywhere.  From bridal fashion to birthday parties, ballet inspires.  So today we’re oohing and awing over some lovely ballerina inspired sweets.
Ballerina Inspired Cake by Intricate Icings

I am completely mesmerized by this cake!   This feminine and romantic design was created by Rachael of Intricate Icings and it could not be more lovely.  The whole scene is dreamy with its ribbon backdrop, candles and soft sunshine.  Love it!  You can see the full wedding photo shoot HERE on Style Me Pretty.

Ballerina Cookies by The Pastry Studio and I Am Baker

And what special day is complete without cookies and cupcakes?  Roses, ballet shoes and tutus?  Yes, please!  Swoon worthy sweets created by some of my favorite ladies…. The Pastry Studio and I Am Baker!  And these tutu cupcake toppers are just tu tu cute!  (Sorry, pun intended.)

Ballerina Cupcakes by Sugar Custom Cakes

    My little girl had her first ballet recital this week and I couldn’t have been more excited. We had a small party afterwards and it was sooo fun to decorate such a girly, beautiful, ballet-pink cake. Check out my blog if you’re interested.
