[Sweet Sweets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweet-delivery-co) has a series of incredible [cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/special-occasion-cakes) all created by Thibeh Wiese. This wonderful up-and-coming cake designer has an eye for design -- and obviously a sweet tooth! Wiese pays close attention to detail and keeps things simple. Her work is almost minimalistic, as it mainly includes a plain backdrop in order to bring more light to the elegant details like sea shells, flowers and shiny panels.

Sweet Sweets keeps it simple, but is surely changing up the [cake creation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buttercream-haze) game.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Minimalistic Dessert Designs:** There is an opportunity for innovative dessert designers to create cakes with minimalist designs that allow small details to shine.
- **Artistic Dessert Details:** Intricate designs on desserts, such as sea shells, flowers, and shiny panels, are on the rise and there is potential for artists to create unique designs.
- **Towering Dessert Creations:** There is an opportunity for dessert designers to create taller and more impressive cakes, like Sweet Sweets' skyscraper cakes, that make a statement at events.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Bakery:** Bakeries can capitalize on the trend of artistic and minimalist dessert designs to create unique and visually stunning desserts.
- **Event Planning:** Event planning companies can offer innovative dessert options, like towering dessert creations, that will wow attendees at events.
- **Dessert Catering:** Dessert catering companies can take advantage of the trend of artistic dessert details to differentiate themselves and offer unique and customized dessert options.
