Week In Review & Edible Oscars

The Academy Awards are this weekend, which means Eleni's creates a new batch of Oscar nominee cookies. This year's actresses are Annette Bening, Jennifer Lawrence, Michelle Williams, Natalie Portman, and Nicole Kidman.

This week on Sweet Tooth:

I fell for these Carl Kleiner dessert photos and IKEA baking cookbook.

We had some fun debate over this M&M cake trend on the Facebook fan page.

I showed you my latest obsession and a couple delicious examples.

MN, WI, and AZ Bride shared this DIY cake topper tutorial by Maddy of Inspired Bride and I.

Of course the guys are represented as well. Pictured above are Jeff Bridges, Javier Bardem, Colin Firth, James Franco, and Jesse Eisenberg.

This week on The Sweet Life, I discussed some of the unconventional flavors of the gourmet popcorn trend. 

Here are the best movie nominees. How many can you name just by looking at the cookies?

Have a great weekend, everyone! I'll see you back here on Monday.
