Spongebob Squarepants – Favors

spongebob-cookie-favor

Does the theme song to Spongebob pop into your head every time you hear his name?  Because it does in mine.  Perhaps that’s because Spongebob plays non-stop around these parts.  It’s safe to say that my son is his number one fan.  I mentioned awhile back about making him a Spongebob cake for his birthday, and since then he’s been talking about it non-stop.  “Momma, you make-a-me my Pongebob cake?”  His birthday isn’t until the end of June and he’s been saying it for about 3 months now.  That kid and his memory….if only mine was still in tact like that.  :)

I made these cookies for Chase and Bernie’s wedding, so they could hand them out as favors to the little ring bearers.  Since Caden was a ring bearer, he got them and loved them.  He also got this killer shirt that says “Ring Security”.  It is darling.

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!

Hello Kitty Cookies – Favors

hello-kitty-cookie-favors

Our dear friends Chase and Bernie got married this past weekend.  On one of our dinner/lunch dates prior to the wedding Bernie had asked if I had any ideas for favors that she could give her little flower girls.  Of course any idea I have is baking related, so I suggest cookies!  Her little niece Evalyn is going thru a “Hello Kitty” infatuation phase and Bernie thought she’d love Hello Kitty on her cookies. 

They turned out A-DOR-ABLE!

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

Covering:  Pale Yellow (Champagne) Buttercream and fresh red roses and baby’s breath

Bridal Shower, Cookies, Favors, Pink, Wedding

Cookies for a Cocktail Party

I met Bernie for the first time…gosh, I think it was on my wedding day, almost 3 years ago.  Surely we met earlier, but now that I think about it maybe not!  She is dating one of Colt’s BFF’s from high school and they are about to get MARRIED!  In twenty two days to be exact.  :)   Chase and Bernie live about 40 minutes away and we don’t get together nearly enough.  Lately though, it seems we’ve seen them a lot more and I’ve been able to spend some more time with Bernie.  She is such a darling person and I’m so excited for her and Chase!

This weekend was her bridal shower and I wasn’t able to attend, so I sent cookies.  Actually, I didn’t think I was even invited, and she swears my invite got “lost-in-the-mail.”  ;)   Which I’m sure it did.  Her and Chase have been sending everything to our old address.  Even though Colt is IN their wedding we started thinking maybe we weren’t invited!  Lol.  I kid, I kid.

Anywho…back to the bridal shower.  The theme was a cocktail party and I had recently purchased this a-dorable martini glass cookie cutter.  I did half cosmos and half martini’s with olives.  I found my inspiration over HERE at “The Decorated Cookie.”  Which by-the-way, is a-freakin-dorable.  The next time I’m at a bookstore I am buying her book.  It’s seriously genius.

Cookie:  Suzie’s Sugar Cookie
