Dean and Deluca Sweet Couture, (Edible) Handbag of the Day
We are kicking off a week of edible purses in preparation for Mother's Day, which is only two weeks away.
Fortunately, there is still plenty of time to order one of these treats if you know it is something that Mom will like.
And when you're combining fashion and food, what's not to like?
Today's purse is the Sweet Couture Cake from Dean and Deluca. It is a four-layer vanilla butter cake that sandwich a decadent chocolate filling. The bag itself, which covers the cake, is made out of a pink fondant embossed with a crocodile-skin pattern. All the "leather" trimming is hand done. Price: $150.

Actually, I don't think $150 is too much to pay for Mother's Day, if you can afford it. If your mom is a major purse person, she'd love it. I'd hate to be the mother of one of the people that commented, "It's just Mother's Day". I take the opportunity to show my mother just how much she's appreciated, and spend as much as I can afford to.

I think that is so cute! The website says it feeds six to eight people. I probably wouldn't purchase it for Mother's Day, but I think it would be perfect for a small shower or bridesmaids brunch!

Great looking handbag the price is just right it takes a lot of work to make also like the filling does go well with the sponge cake - keep baking nice stuff
