A Moment Like This...


If there was only one reason I started baking and decorating cakes five years ago, it would be so I could create this one. Last Saturday, October 10, 2009, not only did I get to be a bridesmaid in a wedding for one of the kindest, most wonderful, precious friends a girl could ask for, but I had the ultimate honor of creating her cake, too!

Noel was absolutely stunning, and her brand-new husband, Jorge, was as proud as could be (and rightfully so!). I can't begin to describe how lovely the entire day was, but the pictures speak for themselves. I love you to pieces, Noel! Congratulations on the beginning of such a beautiful future with the love of your life.

Stop and Smell the Flowers...



This cake is very near and dear to my heart because it was made for one of the best friends a girl could ever ask for. Noel (the beautiful gal in the photo) is getting married in October and I have the honor of making her wedding cake, too! The Gerbera daisy is her theme flower, her colors are red, orange, coral, and yellow, and she is going to be an absolutely gorgeous bride! We threw Noel a surprise bridal shower on August 8th and we all had such a good time. Since one of her colors is red, the cake was red velvet and I iced it with cream cheese frosting...if you only knew how much cream cheese and butter went into it! I love you to pieces, Noel!!!

How Much is that Doggie in the Window?


This was a fun little (well, not so little) cake I did for my friend Pam's daughter, Kayla's, 6th birthday party. Her theme was puppies, and instead of a typical cake, she wanted a Milk Bone! It turned out pretty doggone (pun intended) cute... I hadn't done a dog-themed cake up to now, but obviously dog bones are in my repertoire now!

Da Dum Da Dum!



After what seems like a long hiatus from posting a new picture, I proudly present my second wedding cake! This cake was for Grant and his new wife, Kelly-- It's about darn time they tied the knot! They told me it was a small affair and that I had full control over the final outcome of the cake. Since it was a simple wedding, I wanted the cake to follow that theme, yet still have the feel of a fancy cake. The "ball and chain" wedding topper added to their humorous nature and I think it turned out really nice.
