Let them eat cake!

After a lovely cappuccino with my mother at Café Triste in North Beach I stumbled upon an awe inspiring cake store. Not your average bakery – I Dream of Cake specializes in custom made cakes that look like they belong in a museum rather then in your stomach. My favorite was the Napoleon Bonaparte bust but I must admit I was equally enamored with the polka dot cake!

It's a little tricky to see from this angle but the birds and flowers in the window display were made from marzipan!
