If you don’t know how much I love sweets, you might think that cakes are an odd choice to share on Brown Paper Bag. But as I write this, I’m munching on some cookies and thinking about ice cream, so the embroidered cakes by Leslie Vigil are very on-brand for me.

Using piped icing to mimic the satin stitch, Leslie creates a tapestry-like surface decoration that’s reminiscent of embroidered Mexican dresses. Often, the stylized hearts and flowers are paired with three-dimensional buttercream flowers as well as cupcakes. Grab me a fork, please.
