A baker is always trying to improve their skills and I'm no exception. My latest wish was to improve on my decorating and piping techniques, so I attended a cake decorating class last week at Pizzelle's Confections located at the Campus 805 on Clinton Avenue. (That last photo are the cakes from everyone in the class).

The class was exceptional and put together so well! They focus on small groups and spend the time to step folks through every detail of decorating a full cake. The instructor Emily is also their Executive Pastry Chef and she was so impressive. So, if you are looking for a cake class, they are the real deal! And of course, they make INCREDIBLE chocolate confections - truly works of art that are so delicious.

Well, I'm about to try some more and new frosting recipes soon - wish me luck!

Peace to you,
Mona

Our wonderful friend Connie had her birthday this week and she got a special cake. I tried a different recipe for Italian Meringue Buttercream and some new piping techniques for the cake, which was Vanilla Almond sponge with vanilla flavor frosting. This was a "mini" cake with 3 layers and a surprise --- strawberry buttercream filling between the layers!

Connie, I hope you had a wonderful and Blessed birthday and wish you many more! Elder Law Firm of Connie Glass, P.C. is the best Elder Law Attorney around!

Baby shower cakes are so fun to make because there is always a "theme" that surrounds the event, and usually includes the cake, cookies, decorations, and gifts. This shower was for our friend (and neighbor!) Kirsten and her husband Matt as they expect their first child. The theme was "Over the Moon", so the cake design was to look like a starry night sky with a crescent moon on top. The cake flavor was Yellow Butter cake with Vanilla Buttercream frosting. I think the entire cake was eaten, which is a good sign!

Happy 60th anniversary to Mr. and Mrs. Hensley! It was my absolute pleasure to make their anniversary cake and some petit fours for the special occasion. The cake was Vanilla with Strawberry Jam Buttercream filling and cream cheese frosting, then decorated with frosting flowers, mostly in petal pink and white. The petit fours were vanilla cake with strawberry jam filling, and then covered in vanilla white chocolate poured fondant icing and topped with handmade frosting flowers. The original cake topper is sitting beside the cake in one of the photos - just so special.

Mr. and Mrs. Hensley are the sweetest folks and I hope your anniversary celebration was wonderful!

Sharing some recent baking for a long time friend, Reta. She asked for some German Chocolate Brownies for a work function. These are very rich and dense chocolate with the traditional German Chocolate frosting-filling - an egg custard with brown sugar, coconut, and pecans. Thank you Reta for asking me to make these for your special occasion! (And I loved meeting your sweet kitty cat!)

Sharing some special cupcakes I made for a recent college graduate. My long-time friend Karen asked for some cupcakes that would be good for a graduation, and I found this design that worked well! These are vanilla cupcakes with vanilla buttercream, and then the cap is made from mini Reese's cups and Ghirardelli chocolate squares. These were so much fun to put together!

What a fun time I had making this mermaid cake for my friend Stacy's niece! Making teal colored frosting using a new technique for me and it turned out well - who knew that a food processor could give such great results? The cake was Vanilla with Vanilla buttercream and then decorated with all the hand made "under the sea" items (all edible) such as fish, coral, kelp, starfish, snails, and "sand" made from graham cracker crumbs.

Thank you Stacy for sending me the picture with the mermaid topper on top!
