Oklahoma Sugar Art Show and Grand National Wedding Cake Competition

I have a confession to make. I am addicted to the the Oklahoma Sugar Art Show. Sugar art is basically cake decorating and at the Oklahoma Sugar Art Show it is cake decorating on steroids for here is the Grand National Wedding Cake Competition directed by the the Food Network’s Kerry Vincent.

The cakes are amazing. They are works of art that are supposed to be made entirely of FDA food grade contents including all decorations. What I don’t get is how come nobody seems to care how the cake is. It seems like at the end they ought to be serving the cake. Oh well, nobody besides me seems to even worry about it.

I found an Oklahoma themed cake. Praire’s are always good in Oklahoma.

I loved this entry with an Indian theme. I really liked the elephants.

I liked this one with eccentrically stacked cake segments and then a flower cascade on the other side.

I love this art deco cake but I am wondering just how the lights on it conform to the rules that everything on the cake must be edible. I mean do they make edible light bulbs now?

I don’t know who won or lost. I think the presenters are all winners. At the top level all the cakes are wonderful. I just like looking them.

And I have something else to confess. This is the second time I wrote this post. I wrote it up last night and scheduled it and it disappeared!! Imagine my surprise  when I signed on this afternoon to check on it and it was nowhere to be found. So, which one of you out there stole my post?

    You and I may be the only men in Tulsa that look forward to the Sugar Arts Show. Great set of images as always. It’s killing me that I missed it thus year.

    That orange and blue one must be a Bronco’s cake. I think I like the Oklahoma Prairie cake is my favorite. How long do you think it takes to decorate a cake like these? Maybe that’ why they don’t serve them…they’ve been sitting around for a few weeks while they’re being decorated. 🙂
