Bugs & Babies

This week was a change for me... I started my new job and cake decorating became therapeutic for me! I thought it would be challenging to be working AND doing cakes, but it turns out it has been a blessing. Although still adding a bit of stress to my week, my sweets brought me more joy than I expected!

These cupcakes I GLADLY made for my friend Erin's baby shower. She is such a special and wonderful person, and am so excited for little Michael to come!

Here's a close up- they were chocolate w/ peanut butter frosting and chocolate chip w/ vanilla buttercream. You could smell the peanut butter from a mile away... yummy!!

This was for my friend April's little neice, Laila. She has lots of allergies, so April asked if I could decorate a cake & cupcakes that her mommy made especially for her. I was glad to help out and LOVED doing this cake!!

And, lastly, a cake for Emily- an amazing MOPS leader and home-schooling mommy, that I admire!! Little Micah is due any day and we all can't wait to meet him! I had lots of fun with this one, too! :)

Blake's Cowboy Bash!

My baby boy turned 2!!!! We had a full-blown Cowboy Bash for him a couple weeks ago, and it was SO much fun!!!

Here's my little Cowboy on his horse...

...and his Cowboy Sweets display!! I had a blast with this one! (Not to mention TONS of help from my party-planner friend, Amy, from My Sweet Celebrations!!)

The "shirt & jeans" cake

I also helped my girlfriend, Gina, out with her littlest guy, Grady's 1st birthday. She did a farm theme the day before Blake's, so I was able to use some of the cowboy decor for his too!
Happy Birthday Grady!!

Birthday Beauties

It's been a while, but I've been a busy bee around here lately!! I started a new job this month, so I probably won't be having too many posts. :(

This one was from December. Two of my favorite girls had birthdays and I wanted to do something special. Jazz requested butterflies, so I went with a more modern look...

Here's my girls.... my sis, Amy, and my cuz, Jasmine.
I love you guys!!!!!

Fun & Festive

This past week was very fun with the Christmas season here!! I got to do a few fun treats (which I forgot to take pictures of...), some festive cupcakes, and one super fun birthday cake!!

The first was for a friend of ours, Candee, who was celebrating her 40th! She LOVES wine, so it was only fitting to make her her own bottled version...

It came out so much better than I ever imagined, thanks to the amazing creativity of my beautiful friend Riva. She did the custom label (and with all of one day's notice!!) for Candee's special wine bottle. If you can't read it, it said, "Candace Vineyards, 1969, Aged 40 Years to Perfection, Bottled in Temple City, Ca, 40% alcohol by volume" So perfect!!!

This next order was for a Christmas celebration for my cousin's extended family. His mom ordered a cake to celebrate all of the December birthdays (cute idea!) and some festive Christmas-y cupcakes to go along. These were cute, and super fun to make!

Happy/Merry Birthday/Christmas!!!

A long while back, a friend of mine, DeAnne, from work asked me to do her baby girl Avah's first birthday cake. Little did I know this was the same weekend as my daughter's Nutcracker ballet performances! I was excited to create her little cake, so I told her I would still do it. Avah had a 'little cupcake' party, so I was super excited to make something cute for her!!!

Avah's mommy loves elephants, so we had to incorporate one somewhere!!

Here's some cupcakes I "threw" together for our Becoming One Sunday School class Christmas party. It was fun coming up with holiday themed desserts!!

Happy Birthday Ava!

Last month I had the priveledge of making cupcakes and cake for a childhood friend of mine, Sarah. Her little girl, Ava, turned ONE! When Sarah told me the colors were orange and fuschia I was so excited!

Here's Ava digging into her smash cake

And Sarah's set-up

Thanks for letting me be a part of your special day, Sarah!!
