20 Festive Christmas Cakes

20 Christmas Cakes Inspiration
I LOVE this time of the year! Everything is so cheery and festive! Twinkling holiday lights, Christmas trees, Christmas colors, cute kids pajamas, Christmas cookies, gingerbread houses, family get-togethers, and I can go on. Oh, sorry, no Elf on the Shelf for us! Too much maintenance for me. #sorrynotsorry. It’s a perfect time to share some Christmas Cakes I found on social media!
Just WOW, the bakers are SO creative. It was tough choosing just 20 cakes! I hope that you will love the cakes below!
