Cake decorating can be an art form, and we've seen our fair share of Pinterest fails to prove it. While some novelty cakes are flat-out outlandish, like that hulking KitKat cake we told you about, others are completely adorable and totally doable. This glittering gold-leaf number is ideal for showing mom just how many karats (or carrots?) she's worth.
We admit some attention to detail is definitely required, but recreating this rich dessert is reasonably simple—plus, it's punny. But the best part of the "24-carrot cake" is that there are, in fact, two dozen baby carrots required for the recipe. Check out how to craft this glitzy cake here, or watch the geniuses at Instructables make it in this video.
You always told mom she's as good as gold. Now it's time to put your money where your mouth is. Literally.
