A Shower for Baby F
Saturday, December 12th, 2009I was so delighted to be invited to our dear friend K’s baby shower. She and her husband D will be expecting Baby F in just a few short months, and we are over the moon for them.
I was also thrilled to be called upon to make her shower cake. Two tiers, one chocolate, one vanilla, studded with butterdream polka dots and a replica of the fishies from Baby F’s super adorable bedding.
Congratulations, again, to two wonderful friends!
Happy Halloween!
Friday, November 6th, 2009Around the holidays, I always fall a little behind in my uploading.
However, I wanted to share these adorable Halloween cupcakes. Orange colored chocolate chip cake frosted like jack-o-lanterns, or with vanilla and chocolate, edged in spooky non-pareils.
Check out the cute pumpkin cupcake papers. The perfect touch. These were a huge hit!
Happy First Birthday to C!
Saturday, October 24th, 2009I really love making sweets for friends, and so I was more than delighted that B & M asked me to create a smash cake for their son’s first birthday party.
They had a nautical theme, and B requested the colors of light blue and red, with stripes. I found some inspiration pictures and put together this 8″ round of chocolate and vanilla layers with buttercream and fondant.
On display at the party, complete with anchor, another special request.
C, the birthday boy, loved it! Happy first birthday, buddy!
Jack’s 1st Birthday!
Sunday, September 27th, 2009Happy birthday, Jack!
Jack’s Mommy and Daddy wanted a very special Surf Monkey birthday party for his special day. They asked me to do a surfboard vanilla cake in yellow and blue for Jack’s smash cake and I was happy to oblige.
It made a huge splash with Jack. He was more than happy to dig right in. 
Mom & Dad also ordered some banana rum cupcakes with buttercream frosting to celebrate the actual birthday (tomorrow). I jazzed them up with yellow frosting swirls and a blue fondant dot, in keeping with the party theme.
We hope Jack had a fantastic day!
