Steelers/Lakers – Groom’s Cake
Bernie wanted to do something special for Chase at their reahearsal dinner and decided on having the cake done as a Groom’s cake. When asked what she felt embodied Chase’s personality, she immediately said, “Well, he’s a HUGE Steelers/Lakers fan.” In fact, he’s such a fanatic that Bernie even promised to support the Steelers in her wedding vows! 
Congratulations Chase and Bernie!
Cake: Chocolate
Icing: Peanut Butter Fudge Buttercream with a layer of melted caramel and crushed peanuts

Romantic Fresh Flower Wedding Cake
Fit for a Princess.
That’s how I would describe Bianca’s wedding reception decor.
When we walked in to set up the cake it was a golf club restaurant and when I turned around to leave it had been transformed into this fairy tale wedding oasis.
As we were leaving, I caught a glimpse of Bianca and her wedding party while they were taking pictures and she looked simply stunning.
I hope you have years and years of wedded bliss!
Cake: Espresso Chocolate, Marble, Strawberry, Carrot, Neopolitan
Icing: Almond Buttercream, Banana Buttercream, Pineapple Buttercream, Cream Cheese, Buttercream

Pink Poodle Birthday Party!
Sarah contacted me a month or so ago about making cupcakes for her daughters 5th pink poodle themed birthday party. We nailed down a design and I started to work on these a-dorable pink poodle cupcake toppers. Each poodle is hand cut with an exacto knife out of foam and then covered in glitter.
When I walked in the house to bring the cupcake stand inside her littlest one said, “You are so beautiful!” Thank you little angel for making my day! The girls helped me set up and the birthday girl Sofie handed me the toppers to put on the cupcakes. Every time she handed me one I said, “Thank you ma’am.” After a couple of times she said, “Can you please stop calling me that? I don’t like to be called MAN.” Her mom started laughing and explained to her that I wasn’t calling her MAN but I was saying Ma’am. Sarah had picked out darling decorations and the food looked SCRUMPTIOUS. It’s fun to see how parties come together!
Thank you Sarah for letting me be a part of Sofie’s special day!
Happy BIRTHDAY SOFIE!

Red Velvet Wedding Cupakes
I have been searching and scrounging for the perfect red velvet cake recipe. The one I had in my little recipe box was just not cutting it and I knew there had to be a better one out there. I finally stumbled upon this recipe. Bakerella is my hero. This is the best red velvet cake I’ve ever tasted. Her cream cheese icing was heavenly. She has saved me from future hours upon hours of searching for “THE” recipe.
Thank you BAKERELLA!
Cupcake: Red velvet
Icing: Cream cheese
Topper: Sparkly initial with a red, black, grey theme

Divine Party Concepts
I was beyond thrilled to see that Divine Party Concepts had featured my bumble-bee cookies on this darling party board. To see all of the design credits please click HERE.
This was my first feature and I am still so excited about it I can’t sleep. The wee ones and husband are in bed, yet I am sitting up with my mind whirling as to what goodies I have planned to bake tomorrow…and the next day…and the next day.
Here’s to hoping for several more features in the future! *clink* Cheers!
