We missed out on Halloween festivities this year because of something very sad that happened to us. My baby, dog baby, Klondike had to be put to sleep. I came home on Friday last week and found him laying on the floor of our kitchen and wouldn’t move. I was so upset and hysterical. Sobbing…. [Continue Reading]

Since I work a full time job, plus manage my business on the side and tackle a long-ish commute every day, finding time to organize is at the bottom of my priority list. But the funny thing is that when I am un-organized, I waste more time and energy trying to find the things I… [Continue Reading]

We were hired to put together a barnyard or farm theme cupcake tower for a cute little boy turning 2. I hope we didn’t disappoint! These were so fun to make! I loved making the animal pieces and then the animal sounds. I thought that would be perfect for a 2 yr old! We topped… [Continue Reading]
A month ago, I was hired to put together a dessert table to celebrate the run of Tosh On Ice 2011 tour at Honda Center. I am a fan of Daniel and his show Tosh.O. Coincidentally I was just at the season finale taping of Tosh.O a few weeks prior up there in Culver City. It was… [Continue Reading]
We had one heck of a busy weekend! We were very lucky to be asked to do a cupcake tower for Hearts & Laserbeams (the person responsible for the awesome graphics on my site!) son’s first birthday.

This past weekend we took a break from the Farmers Market so I could have some fun celebrating one of my favorite kids 5th birthday. And I had the privilege of making this little dude a pirate cake to go along with the pirate theme of his big day. I can’t believe I’ve known this kid for… [Continue Reading]
I don’t do cakes very often. Most of my orders are for cupcakes and then maybe a cutting cake or smash cake for the little one. So when I do get a cake, it breaks up the norm. I love the way this one came out. It was made to match the baby shower invitations… [Continue Reading]
I got this idea from the fab-o Kari from Retro Bakery. I think it came out pretty cute! It was really fun to make but VERY messy. But I’d do it again for sure.
One of the orders we had this week was for a Hello Kitty birthday party at Pretend City. Hot pink frosting was the request along with matching hot pink glittery bows. All hand cut decorations. Can someone tell me where I can buy a small hello kitty cutter??

Well i think it’s time for me to say goodbye to this blog. At least for a little while. Finding time to post has become a challenge. Since I update almost daily if not more than once a day on my Facebook page, I will now be focusing mainly on that to showcase the latest… [Continue Reading]
