Wondering Where I've Been?

I promise you I am still baking. Actually, I have been baking so much each week that it's nice not to have an order this week. I have been really bad about taking pictures of each creation so I do apologize. The reason I am so absent minded is due to the fact that I am nearly four months pregnant and I just bake those yummy cakes and run them off to where they need to be. Thank you to all who have ordered from me in the past month, it has been really fun and to be honest I have learned a lot. I promise I will start taking pictures!

Bon Voyage Cake

Well Folks, I am branching out. What this means is that I am starting to bake "bigger" cakes. This was my first attempt since last Mother's Day. . .that's a long time of baking cupcakes! What got me going on the traditional cake kick was last week I was approached to bake a wedding cake! It may sound like a daunting task but I think I will be ready as long as I bake a cake a week. Today, I decided to whip up this cake; the flavor is lemon with lemon curd buttercream (one of the flavors that I am making for my wedding cake order). I am going to pat my back for this cake. Yes, the fondant is not 100% perfect, but to be honest I did not have enough to cover this entire cake! That's why there is some folding/bunching action going. Regardless, I truly hope that Christina loves her bon voyage cake.

I will post pictures of a slice tomorrow.

Kahlua Chocolate Kŭp’kāks

A perfect Mother's day gift! Kahlua chocolate cake with vanilla bean cream cheese frosting and a ton of Belgium chocolate jimmy's. These were made for Mother's day and were packaged with red velvet. A perfect combination!

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mom's and Mothers-to-be. Today is your day to relax and be pampered!

Tiramisu Kŭp’kāks

This is the second time I have made tiramisu cupcakes, and can I tell you they are so amazing! The tiramisu cream this time around was thinner than before so I had to add cool whip just so it would stay on the delicious cake. I made them for Jim's co-worker, Trang, who had ordered these and red velvet for her cousins birthday. I really hope that they enjoyed the espresso soaked Kahlua chocolate cake with the light and airy tiramisu cream.

Sweet Strawberry Goodness!

What's more refreshing than a warm Spring day? A fresh strawberry cupcake of course! These light cakes have fresh strawberry puree, Madagascar vanilla, fresh lemon zest, Fleur De sel and silky buttermilk. Perfect for any Spring event!

Houndstooth Red Velvet

One of my signature flavors were wrapped up this weekend in my new trendy houndstooth wrappers for a black and white themed bridal shower. So beautiful they may be hard to eat!

Abby Cadabby Birthday Cupcakes

One of my most recent creations was for my nieces second birthday. I made chocolate chip cupcakes with butter cream frosting adorned with sparkling pink sugar and Abby cadabby sugar pieces. Any Sesame Street lover would go nuts over these scrumptious cupcakes.
