Succulent cake. (Ivenoven / Instagram.)
We can’t take our eyes off of these terrarium cakes (yes, we said cake!). Piping succulent leaves instead of flower petals is sweeping Instagram and these creations from Jakarta based chef Iven Kawi (@ivenoven) have our jaws dropping from the meticulous detail and what seems like a little bit of magic. Forget tiptoeing through the tulips, lay us down on a bed of sweet succulents any day.
