Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Do you have your green on? Because we’re getting our green on! We’re spending today loving on some amazing cakes in every shade of green. These cakes are not filled with Leprechauns or shamrocks, rainbows or pots of gold. Instead, they are incredibly lovely designs with hints of green, perfect for any time of year. Mint green, emerald green, moss green, sage green — you name it! Along the way, we’ll welcome back some of our favorite cake artists while also introducing you to new designers making their first appearance here on the blog. Hooray for all of these talented ladies — we can’t get enough of your spectacular cake creations (#cakeloveonthecakeblog)! Here’s 10 Gorgeously Green Cakes…

Arrows and more arrows! We’re smitten with this baby shower cake sporting trendy arrows and timeless polka dots by Anna Craig, owner of Sweet on You Cakes.
