Cake, baby!

Yes, this post is all about delicious cake, but just not the kind you eat.

It’s about the kind you can carry. I found this decadent purse online and just fell in love. First with the name of course, and then with the design. It’s from Petunia Pickle Bottom.

But, it’s not just a purse. It’s also a diaper bag. That’s right. Inside this not so little red number is a fold out changing pad, room for diapers and a plastic case for wipes. No one would ever guess. Unless of course they, too have had some cake.

Now, don’t feel like you’ve gotta go and get pregnant just to carry this purse. Petunia Pickle Bottom made the changing pad detachable so you can carry Cake even if you don’t have a little one in tow for a reason.

    This bag is gorgeous! Almost worth those 9 months of morning sickness, swollen feet, and crazy cravings. lol…i said ALMOST! Thank goodness its transformable!

    And I can’t say how perfect this bag would be for me, because I’m having my first girl in May (already have 2 boys)–what a way for us to share my love for baking!

  97. Red Velvet cake is my favorite! Love the bag, it’s gorgeous!

  98. mmmm, chocolate – any type of chocolate!!!

  99. I could eat Chocolate Cake anyday :)

  100. cake you eat = chocolate
    cake you carry = buttercream (but mainly b/c I know that’s the one my sister that’s due in April would want)

  101. Cherry chip is my favorite cake of all time. My neighbors used to have it at all of their family events and we were always invited. I loved that cake so much. It’s a box mix…and we can’t get it in WI. I have to bring boxes home with me when I visit my hometown in Iowa.

  102. I love all types of cake! And my wife is pregnant and she has been begging for this bag…. girls and bags. : )

  103. Angel Food. Mmmm Yummy.

  105. Cheescake of course. Though if we’re talking cake mix, I love the butter pecan flavour with creamy vanilla frosting.

  106. Its gotta be anything chocolate! I have 5 daughters, this bag would come in handy for all the diapers!
    kristad@roadrunner.com

  107. My momma’s red velvet cake with cream cheese icing. Mmmm!

  108. Chocolate cake! Simple choice but oh so yummy!

    I’ve never tried Red Velvet. Can you BELIVE that?

  109. AAAAHHHH!!! I have just quit my job as a pastry chef because I am having a baby girl- could this be any more perfect?!? Bakerella- you rock, and your timing is impeccable!

    How can I choose my favorite cake flavor? There are too many! I love chocolate, but I also love orange blossom chiffon and toasted almond cream- yum!

  110. I love cake! Red Velvet is not my favorite-yellow with chocolate frosting- now we are talking! Love the purse! I could adjust my taste!

  111. My answer would usually be ICE CREAM CAKE! all the way, but I recently discovered a new recipe by Alton Brown called “Gold Cake.” oh…myy….At first I thought it was just another yellow cake, but it is soooo not. It has caramel infused into it. It is DELICIOUS. You should use it to make some cake pops they would be delectable. :)

  112. Most assuredly it is Red Velvet! Had it for my wedding cake! YUM! Actually makes me want to go make it now. Off to bake!

  113. My favorite cake is Red Velvet but my baby sister has been in labor with her first child since last night at 7 pm and her favorite cake is chocolate…plus I really think she would love this bag!!!! And we love you Bakerella!!!! =)

  114. My very favorite cake is carrot with cream cheese frosting. But red velvet actually comes in a close second!

  115. Since I was a little girl, my favorite cake has been Prinsesstårta, Swedish princess cake. It may have been because my favorite color was green at the time, but who can resist sponge cake, thick pastry cream, raspberry jam and marzipan! Thank heavens for a certain international Swedish furniture store, that’s where I get a fix for my cravings!

  116. Oreo cheesecake!

  117. favorite cake? just ONE??? just about every cheesecake I’ve encountered…. if that doesn’t count, then I do love a great chocolate cake with buttercream frosting.

  118. I love lemon cake with buttercream frosting mixed with a hint of lemon zest. yum :)

  119. chocolate, chocolate, chocolate! though I did make your big love cookie cake for v-day, and it was delicious!

  120. chocolate cake is my favorite!!

    and i want that bag!!

  121. Oh My Goodness!! how cute! and to think I have a 2 mth old that I could use that for :) I love it!

    tres leche is the best cake ever, with homemade whipped cream frosting, followed in a close second by strawberry cake. plain, just eat it with some butter on it like corn bread. LOL!

  122. Oh my! I love any cake with cream cheese icing. And I am pregnant and have been drooling over this diaper bag for a couple of month’s now. It would look so cute with baby girls stuff in it don’t ya think?

    Have a great MONDAY!

  123. Anything chocolate:)

  124. OMGosh! Screaming, I need this. How fancy would I look on my way to pick out my favorite German Chocolate cake! Thanks Bakerella, you are the best.

  125. Do I have to choose just ONE???? I would have to say triple chocolate chip is my favorite!

  126. Ooh, so hard to pick – I’d have to go with carrot cake with cream cheese frosting!

  127. vanilla is my all time favorite ! you can put any flavor icing on it and not ruin it !!!

  128. Bakery Birthday Cake! Or bakerella birthday cake! Seriously, I love the taste of authentic bakery cake. Not grocery store kind- Henre’s for example!

  129. My favorite cake is chocolate, german chocolate, carrot…well, you get the idea. But I would absolutely love to have this bag–my little girl is due on Thursday and it would be great to have a girly diaper bag. :)

  130. Gotta be devil’s food. Any sort of deep, dark chocolate!

  131. Red velvet & tres leches! Hard to pick between the two. . .

  142. WANT!

    My favorite cake is plain white vanilla cake. I am so boring.

  143. This is a great idea! My favorite cake is blueberry cheesecake, that I sadly still haven’t mastered the recipe for. Depressing!

  149. Classic chocolate cake with choc frosting, more recently favoring PW’s chocolate sheet cake (yum).

  150. I have to admit that I eat decidedly less cake than I do ice cream. As a pastry chef, I make cake & cupcakes 24/7, so at the end of the day, there’s nothing better than scooping ice cream into my big ol’ mug and making a beeline for my bed. Pure bliss. That said, I made a new cake combo last week for a client and it was heavenly: the recipe came from Amy Atlas’ website – chocolate cake soaked in fleur de sel caramel, filled and frosted with chocolate caramel ganache. Need I say more? :) Love your site, btw…thanks for keeping us inspired and motivated! Karen

  151. Chocolate cake w/my mom’s white icing – no, wait – upside-down pineapple cake – no, wait – yellow cake w/butterscotch icing – – yes, as a matter of fact, I am easy when it comes to cakes!

  152. My fav is Mocha chocolate fudge cake! and i would love to win this bag cause i have been looking for a nice bag for my lil 5 month old and me …i so hope i win ! :D

  153. I am not exactly sure if I can narrow it down to just one… Angel food or chocolate with chocolate frosting. Mmmm that makes me hungry just thinking about it!

  154. Almond pound cake! :-)

  155. the most delicious cake i ever had was my wedding cake, a light lemon cake with buttercream frosting – nom!

  173. Love the purse. And love red velvet cake!!

  174. do I sound ridiculous if I say white cake? a good, soft, moist, fluffy piece of white cake.

  175. Chocolate devil’s food cake with chocolate sour cream frosting! My mom always made it from scratch for my birthday when I was growing up! These days she doesn’t have much time to do it, so I think I’ll have to start making it for my kids :)
    Love the bag!!!

  176. That purse is amazing. That’s what I would use it for because my little ones are getting older, and I don’t normally carry a diaper bag anymore. I would have to say that chocolate, vanilla, red velvet…oh wait just any cake that doesn’t eat me first is a fav! Thanks for the chance to win.

  177. Actually Red Velvet is my fav…… :) this would be perfect!

  191. There is a place here in omaha that makes a cake called Strawberry Wedding Cake, it is white cake with a strawberry filling with a whipped topping like frosting with strawberries on top of that. It is so yummy. Everyone is always excited when they see it at a baby or wedding shower!

  192. I love chocolate cake… simple, but it’s my favorite!

  193. Red Velvet!! I think I like the cream cheese frosting more than the cake though :D

  194. Angel Food! So delicious and light. Love the purse!
