What is even better than receiving flowers or a lovely plant from a loved one? Receiving an edible one! 

 

Since they started emerging on the 'gram, created by Indonesian bakers @ivenoven, succulent cakes have been among our favourite cake decorating trends.

 

When it comes to buttercream - which is what the decorations are made of - we just believe that the more the better!

 

Because it is Friday and, boy, do we all deserve a treat, we have scrolled our feed to find the prettiest succulent cakes, cupcakes, and every possible dessert with the leafy icing on top.
