Spring is here, and it not only looks good but tastes amazing as well! To prove this, pastry chefs from all over the place have gone online to share their food art in the form of blooming flower buttercream cakes!

The cakes come in different colors, forms, and sizes, but what they do have in common are these vibrant floral toppings. They are made of butter, powdered sugar, food coloring, and sometimes some additional flavoring as well, all of which give them that velvet-smooth texture.

Gosh, even talking about them makes my mouth water... so without further ado, let's jump into these beauties and pick the best blooming flower cake! (h/t: mmm)

This just looks like fresh flowers on a cake... If they're made of frosting, they are unnaturally accurate.

At least I won't feel so guilty enjoying half of the cake. :D

Wow! Student's work...if these little cup cakes are from a cake's maker student, just imagine how the cakes would be from the master!

I like this cake, but the way the sides are done does make me think of asparagus. :)

So elegant. I always wonder if these cakes can possibly taste even half as good as they look!

I actually think the green icing completes this beautiful cake. Gorgeously well done!

Those finishing touches with powder really ad to this whole work of art. At least, I think it's powder, I'm definitely not a pro lol

Those cotton balls are definitely original! (At least I think those are cotton balls, don't know a flower that looks like that). And are those pinecones? Looks more autumn than spring ^_^ Gorgeous!

Wow, fine combo of a screaming bold color and fine, soft colors. Really love this one.

I don't know why but this one looks like it's made from marzipan instead of buttercreme. If that's the case this is my favorite because I don't like the taste of buttercreme ^_^

Definitely way better than anything I could ever make but it doesn't look as real as most other flowers on the other cakes to me. I don't know why though... But the colors (love those multi-toned leaves and petals 💜) and placement are good though.

The one on the bottom left looks weird. The others are stunning though

Flowers really look stunning but the exposed icing of the cake it not so beautiful, in my opinion. Would have looked better if it was smooth, I think.
