One of the latest (and tastiest) crazes to hit the dessert world is the drip cake. Though this might sound needlessly messy, the effect is totally worth it—these confections are a stunning sight. The avant garde creations feature a sweet glaze that runs over top of a flattened circular cake and down its side. Often, this edible gloss is accompanied by buttercream flowers, macarons, or luscious fruits.

A drip cake offers ample opportunity for dessert decoration. One popular execution is playful, too, and it creates the illusion than an ice cream cone is melting; like somehow, it’s haphazardly drizzled over the edge. Other cakes take a more serious approach—particularly for weddings. In these instances, bakers use the dripping as a base for layering beautiful flowers, candies, and cookies on top. When it’s done, the dessert looks like a modern sculpture. It’s no wonder that Pinterest identified drip cakes as one of the top trends for 2017 weddings.
