Lil throwback to one of my personal faves – my “Where the Wild Things Are” wild berry (of course) pie! I suppose it’s all the prepping for the Lego convention this weekend that’s got me feeling nostalgic… That and the fact that “May the 4th (be with you)” is coming up AND Free Comic Book Day (also May 4th this year). And I just finished watching Avengers Endgame and The Battle of Winterfell… I’m just drowning in the awesomeness of all the magical worlds that shaped my childhood and adolescence this week! ⠀⠀ What are *your* favorite magical universes? Any you think would make great pie subjects? Let me know in the comments below! ⠀⠀ #fantasy #mauricesendak #wherethewildthingsare #pie #wildberry #cake #cakedecorating #pastryart #pastryarts #foodart #piesofinstagram #fandom #fanart #piecrust #piegoals #piesquad #pielove #eatmorepie #tastemademedoit #cupcakeproject #monsterpie

It’s almost time for BrickCan!! ❤️💛💙What is @brickcan you ask? Only my favorite convention for Adult Fans of Lego ever (and there’s a place for the kiddies too)… This is the biggest convention/exposition in Canada for Lego and it starts this week (May 4th and 5th)! I’m so excited – I got my tickets months ago, but there is still time for you to snag yours at www.BrickCan.com. Hope to see you there! In the mean time, here’s a little Lego fan art in pie form to get you in the mood… ⠀⠀ How many of you have kids who play with Lego (or do yourself)? What is your favorite theme? Mine is the “creator” sets with the big modular houses… if you swipe right you can see my “Lego room” (this is mummy’s Lego – the boy has to ask permission to play in here 😂) ⠀⠀ #lego #brickcan2019 #legocake #brickcan #brickcanyourself #emmet #brickcon #afol #afolclub #legoland #legohouse #cakedecorating #cookiedecorating #rainbow #everythingisawesome @prattprattpratt

Happy Easter and Passover and Sunday everybody!! 💐💕 I’m so excited to share this, my first ever collab with my friend and constant inspiration @luxeandthelady (who’s real name is also Jessica!) We’ve been looking for a collab to do together for a while and with the Springy holidays coming up (and the #pieartanimalscollab happening now until May 12th) she suggested we tackle Disney’s Bambi. Check out her page this afternoon to see Bambi’s good buddy Thumper! 🐰 Jessica’s super Kawaii treats have always been a delight, but it’s her photo styling and sense of design that really blow my mind… I hope you love her work as much as I do! ⠀⠀ Now for me it’s time finish the last bit of tidying before the family arrives – we’re hosting Easter this year and as my son said “the Easter bunny is going to feel bad for coming here and dump all the eggs in the garbage if we don’t get the yard looking nicer” 😂 ⠀⠀ What are you baking this weekend? Any family traditions involving your own special treats? Share in the comments below! I love hearing about all the unique things people create for these big family holidays 😊💕 ⠀⠀ Oh! And before I forget – after your are done checking out Jessica’s fab Thumper pie – head over to my friend @coderxbaker who has just posted a gorgeous Bambi pie too! So much glorious Pie Art this year 🥰 Viva la Pie Art! ⠀⠀ #bambi #disneyfamily #easterpie #easterdessert #happyeaster #bambiandthumper #disneyfanart

You know nothing Jon Dough… I mean Snow… 😜❄️ ⠀⠀ I’m so excited to be doing another Pie Art collab with the incredibly talented Liz Joy of @inspiredtotaste – and of course we just had to do something Game of Thrones related what with the final season premiere just a week away… So tell me, are you a Jon/Dany shipper? Or is it “Jon & Ygritte 4eva” for you? 💘 Head on over to Liz’s profile to check out our pick for the ideal match for young Jon… ⠀⠀ This pie is blueberry with black sanding sugar and little crow “pie dough cookies”, also covered in black sanding sugar. I had a lot of fun making (and eating!) this one – the crows were fun to dip into the filling like little sparkly nachos. 😜 ⠀⠀ Now the real question… Who’s your favorite character on the show, and who do you think will be left standing at the end? (I’m guessing probably just HotPie and a couple of chickens walking around 😂) ⠀⠀ #pie #pieart #GRRM #kitharington #kitharrington #blueberrypie #gameofthrones #gameofthronesmemes #crows #got #gotfanart #goth #medieval #cakedecorating #pastryart #foodart #georgerrmartin #jonsnow #youknownothingjonsnow #winteriscoming #pietrait #pietraits #cookiedecorating #hbo #forthethrone #pietraits

Twilight in Paris… A lil’ throwback to one of my fave bakes from 2018. I’ll be back soon with a whole new wack of pies (“a wack” – is that the official collective noun for a group of pies? 😂) but I think I’ll revisit my “City Pieline” series concept at some point too. Heck, maybe we should do a big city pieline collab? What city would you like to see immortalized in pastry? Lemme know in the comments below and tag a buddy you’d like to travel there with! 🌉🕌⛩ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ #eatmorepie #citypielines #pielines #paris #pie #tarts #tartart #frenchcuisine #foodart #france #iloveparis #weloveparis #pastry #pastrychef #pastryart #pastryarts #pastrylife #pastrypassion #pastry_inspiration #pastrylove #pastrycheflife #frenchpastry

Oh Tormund… Brienne’s heart may belong to Jaime, but *we* still love you!! 🧡🔥🧡 ⠀⠀ What say you all? Are you shipping our “kissed by fire” Northern stallion, or Mister “Golden Hand with the not-so-golden hair anymore” for Ser Brienne of Awesomesauce? Or have you never watched Game of Thrones before and have no idea what I’m talking about? 😂 In which case, just enjoy the sexy beard dude pie! 😜 ⠀⠀ Do you have a favorite moment from season 8 of GoT so far? Let me know in the comments below – and let me know if you’d like me to post the tutorial video for this pie in my stories! ⠀⠀ @khivju @gwendolineuniverse #kristoferhivju #fanartoftheday #fanart @hbo #portrait #beard #redhead #gameofthrones #tormund #tormundgiantsbane #tormundandbrienne #gwendolinechristie #brienneoftarth #got #gotfanart #gameofthronesfanart #valentines #vikings #pie #cherrypie #pietraits
