I am always so amazed at cake decorating. It incorporates sweet, sweet baking and true artistic expression. Undoubtedly that is delicious and kind. So these examples of cake album covers make me one happy girl.
My personal favorite is the recreation of the Rolling Stones 'Let it Bleed' cover. But I will also happily bite into the Mika or Sex Pistols cake. Check out the gallery for full cake album cover coverage.
Implications - Cake decorators are now attempting to take the medium even further by recreating album covers. Utilizing famous album covers as inspiration also garners the decorators much media attention as consumers can readily empathize with familiar pop culture references more so than uniquely original designs. Corporations looking to appeal to consumers with their products may consider utilizing pop culture references as design elements.
