introducing....

Cupcakes are now being sold at Great Harvest... made by me!  I am really excited about them.   Go check' em out and let me know what you think!  

long time no post

wow, it's been forever since I last posted on here.  probably because the cake business has been slow this winter... which is normal!  I have been doing a lot of cupcakes and a couple little cakes to keep me busy.  but the wedding months are sneaking up on us and I have some cakes coming up soon that I am excited about!  

this was a fun cake a did for a friend.  all the little dots and beading around the bottom are edible pearls and the balls on top are white chocolate coated cake balls.  kinda fun! 

TMTH

(for those of you that didn't watch American Idol this last year, TMTH is something that is a frequent in our home now, meaning "too much to handle".  and now back to my post)

I took on the insane task of doing 2 cakes last Saturday.  I have done 2 in one weekend, but never 2 in the same day.  To say the least... it was crazy.  I literally was freaking out!  But they both turned out so beautiful!

The first one I delivered was for Ashley Gonter.  It was actually a replica of the cake that I had for my wedding, only in different colors.  I thought it was pretty cool to see my cake again, and to have actually made it myself!  

The second one I delivered was for Michelle Sullivan.  I loved this one because it was so unique and elegant.  I loved the idea of doing half cake and half cupcakes.  The colors on this one were so simple and pretty.  I love the monogram and just the simpleness of it all.

Chocolatey Goodness

The thing I loved most about this cake is that is smelt so good!  As I was taking it to the reception site I could smell the chocolate in the frosting and just wanted to smash my face into it.  Lucky for them and me, I contained myself.  I love how the whole cake is brown and the orange flowers look so gorgeous.  Congrats Brandalee!  

IT'S A JUNGLE!

Kash turned 1... Hooray!  This ended up being one of my very favorite cakes ever!  I got to be a little creative on this one and I had a blast!  I found myself continuing to add little details even after I thought I was finished.  My favorite is the elephant though.  So cute!  I love it, and I hope Kash did too!

a WILD birthday!

Cute little Gigi turned 1 and I got to make this darling cake for her!  I loved the zebra idea with the cute, pink, feminine touch.  I'd never done a zebra cake before but I would do it again in a heartbeat because it turned out so darn cute!  Happy Birthday Gigi!

same but different

Yes, another cupcake tower.  They seem to be really popular right now, which I am totally okay with because I love doing them.  This one was for Lauren Benson.  I really loved the vertical lines created by the buttercream... I think it look very clean and pretty.  I also like the alternating cupcakes with the chocolate and white and I love the jewel on top of them.  Another cute cake!  I've got a birthday cake on Monday that I am really excited to do too...
