Tea party, Birthday

This week I had the opportunity to prepare some sweet for a girl tea-party Birthday. My client gave me white paper, she told me:"I trust on your taste" and gave me the girl name(Abigail). So I went big. I made cupcakes with pink frosting and sugar decorations and I made the dollies with her name on it. I also made some cake bites dipped in pink coating. So each little girl will have a cupcake and a cake bite.

anniversary cake

Try to make a cake that please him and her at the same time is always a challenge. Usually with ladies you add a little of pink or some flowers and they are very happy. But for the male is not so easy all the time. So when I was asked to make an anniversary cake for a couple (23 years together) I tried to keep my design suitable for both:Red roses on top for her and black stripe on the bottom for him.
The bottom tier is a red velvet cake filled with chocolate cream cheese frosting (for him), and the top tier is a marbled cake filled with chocolate frosting(for her).

Cookies, cookies and more cookies

These last couple weeks were filled with cookies baking. I love cookies, there is something in these little bites that brings back memories. We all grow up loving them, coming back home and finding fresh baked cookies was haven when I grow up. Now than I am grown up I can see these little sweets taking an elegant and different twist. those are some of my favorite one because they looks beautiful and they can be customized. Perfect as a present or favors or just a treat for yourself....

December Wedding

This month I had a big wedding cake to make. 3 tier 22 inches tall. The bride was getting married the day after Christmas and that day a huge snow fall decided to come over us with record high(10inches). I really enjoy making this cake. It was totally different than my usual style so it challenged me. I also had to have my husband help for the transportation considering the weight of the cake and the conditions of the roads. I also made over 150 cake bites for the guest using the same color scheme of the cake: Red,white and gold.

Taylor guitar

Hello,
These week was very busy with pastries and cakes(and sick kids) but so far so good. I has an order for a guitar shaped cake. A client email me a pictures of her husband guitar and asked me to make a cake alike. I have to say that my husband helped me a lot on supervising the decorations. I had no clue how a guitar is, I used the picture but help from somebody than knows guitar really helps. The body is chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting and the neck is red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting. I also almost destroy the cake during the delivery but this is all another story.....

Zebra Cake

Recently I receive a few request for cakes with zebra prints. This is small(6')one. It is a chocolate cake in zebra print and decorated with eatable flowers. My client instead of the big cake opted for a small one and an assortment of cake bites for easy serving.
