Piper Turns 1




How do you decorate a first birthday cake? With polk-a-dots of course. Pink and Green polk-a-dots to be exact. Piper went to town on her first piece of chocolate cake. Just the way it should be.

Character Cakes







Character Cakes are always so much fun. Taking a favorite character and turning them into edible art starts with a simple picture. I can create them from an invitation or even a coloring book drawing. Using a coloring book drawing is actually the easiest way for me to create the character. Simple outlines, then adding coloring and or course a fun background. Here are the Super Mario Brothers on Brian's 7th Birthday Cake. I also made "M" and "L" cookies for Mario and Luigie, as the party favors.

Baby Shower Favors






Lia is having a baby girl and the favors for her shower are pink and brown baby rattles. We decided to go with a few different designs. Here are some of them. These cookies make great favors.

Jess & Mike's Welcome Treats


Jess & Mike were getting married in Key West and they wanted cookies for the guest bags they were giving people at the hotels. We went with the colors they used for the wedding and used their first initials since the wedding hadn't happened yet.
