Frilly and fun turning One!

A delicious array of flavors!

This past week I had some fun family cakes! My kids and I celebrated my husbands birthday and we celebrated my Grandfather’s 98th birthday.

A few weeks ago my oldest brought me a picture and she told me she designed a cake for daddy! Obviously I was so proud of her as it was her first cake design! My girls did all of the exterior (i did the remoteand stacking). The interior was a vanilla cake with blueberry with a blueberry peach jam. It tasted like blueberry cobbler. It was delicious!

The cake for my Grandfather was a pinapple cake with a brown sugar pinapple jam (he loves pinapple upside-down cake). The exterior was made with an Italian buttercream! The design was inspired by roses. Ever since my grandmother passed away, my grandfather has been buying roses. He buys them for my grandmother. There has been multiple times that he prays to my grandmother and a heart appears in one of his roses. So I made roses with a heart In them. It brought him to tears when my mom presented him with the cake.

Super Tuesday!!

It was a busy weekend of cakes! Here we have one of them which is a vanilla cake with our cookies and cream buttercream filling!

The birthday girl wanted a mash up of makeup, Wonder Woman and her favorite colors pink and purple! So this is what we came up with! We have what we would think is Wonder Woman’s makeup bag. The bag is made of rice crispy with the accents made of fondant.

Wishing the birthday girl a super 5th birthday!

Hello Everyone!!

My apologies it has been a long time since I have posted anything. Let me fill you in as to what I have been up to and why I have gone silent the last couple months. So, back in February I committed to getting myself healthier and I am happy to say I have succeeded. Before I had kids I used to run frequently and I have recently found that Joy and love for it again.

In April I committed myself to run a race in January in Disney World called the D***y Challange. This is a 48.6 mile running Challange which I did previously in 2015. It is 4 days straight of races (5k, 10k , half marathon and finishing with a full marathon). This is a big deal to me. Not just because it will be 10 years since I last ran it, but it is also a celebration of my 40th birthday coming up in 2025. So, This is where I have been. I have been training like a crazy person. I am planning on getting back to cakes in late January to early February after the race is completed and I recover.

Please, as always feel free to reach out as I am still here. Wishing everyone all the best and I look forward to making cakes again for you soon!
