Closing up July...

We are closing up the month of August with a lot of fun cakes, and one that we've been trying to get a picture posted of for a while. So enjoy the end of July with us!

How fun is this one?! Covered in chocolate ganache (YUM!) and highlighted with bright robins egg blue and lime green. So fun!

A simple cake adorned with daisies surrounding each tier bottom. The daisies were hand made and just add a touch of class.

Another tractor cake went out this week! This time we covered the sides with fields and corn and I just think its so cute! (So did the mom, hopefully we'll have a picture of Jack next week eating his yummy cake!)

This cake has been waiting in the wings a while to get posted! We could not seem to find the picture in our files. Finally, after some deep file searching it popped up. So, Sarah, here is your wedding cake! A little late, but still beautiful!

This cake was also found deep in our files. It was for a baby shower cake a few months back and the colors are just fabulous! We mocked the invitation in colors, style and design. Awesome.

A fun birthday cake!

And YUM! If you don't know Yesterdog, you should. Best hot dogs, hands down. I enjoyed doing this cake SO MUCH! The company Let us Cater, caters for Yesterdog so you can have them at your company party, wedding, graduation party, any occasion. They are great to work with. And instead of those end-of-the-night-slider burgers, how delicious would these be?! Anyway, this cake was for their company picnic, and I promise, did not taste like hot dogs.

Rachel hand made these Britney Spaniels for the top of the grooms cake at a wedding last weekend. She did a fabulous job and the bride, groom and all the guests just raved about it!

And that is all for now. We did just finish a guitar cake earlier today, some fun cupcakes, and are working on some wedding cakes later this weekend, so keep those eyes peeled for more pictures!

have a good week/end! - Sara :)

We had just a few cakes this week, so it will be short and sweet again!


A cute, cute chocolate cinnamon cake (a newly added flavor to our new brochures) covered with all things John Deere! Including a little tractor!

The wedding cake, to go along with many cupcakes, for Alexandria and Brett this past weekend. We copied their invitation colors and style right onto the cake, along with their new monogram. I love it!

This was from awhile ago, and I don't know how I just stumbled upon it! A solar system style cake was so fun to do!

This cake is so sweet! The mother came in, said she called many, many places and couldn't find anyone to make a watermelon cake for her adorable daughters first birthday! Of course we said yes! To top it off, we made a strawberry cake, so that once it was cut into, it still looked like a real watermelon!

And we made these extra slices for Maggie herself. Yum!

Everyone enjoy the rest of their week and the upcoming weekend! - Sara :)

Hey everyone! We had quite a few cakes last week, probably our busiest week in July! And honestly, can you believe its the 19th this weekend? August is coming up extremely quick! So, I will keep these short and sweet :)

We did a mini cake wedding...


Another beautifully tall cake... (love this one!)


A castle cake...

(although this is from a few weeks ago) a cake seperated with limes...

A very delicate, and detailed, cake...

a dotted cake...

An R2D2 cake!

A cake adorned with handmade bamboo sticks...

And a whole lot of funky cakes for a completely pink and orange wedding...

I'm still working on getting a few more cakes up here, including an awesome cake for Ethan that seemed like it was on fire...

So enjoy these for now and hopefully those will make it up soon! - Sara :)

Seriously... July?

I know, I know its been a little while since our last update, but I promise we have been keeping busy! This summer has been busy, and moving quite quickly!


We made many, many dalmation cookies this week for one of our brides as her favors. No worries, this one that was playing in the grass was only eaten by those inside the bakery :)


A beautifully simple cake for a close friends daughter - she was both mine and Barb's professor at one point, and we were more than happy to do her daughters wedding cake! The wedding was at Post Family Farm and was just gorgeous. The weather couldn't have been better!

A swirl design was piped onto this cake and accented with light purple flowers.

The dinosaurs made another appearance for a birthday party this past weekend, so cute.

This castle cake was so much fun to do! We made the columns out of cardboard tubing (cleaned!) then covered in white fondant and accented with pinks and purples. A princess was made for each girl to have for themselves. My favorite part of the castle was the window boxes. They are a simple addition that really pops, and adding flowers to it made is super cute.

I hope you all enjoyed the preview, we still have a few cakes to upload and add to the blog, and we have quite a few wedding cakes this weekend! So be looking for an update either later this week or early next! Hope you all enjoyed your 4th of July weekends! - Sara :)

Whew!

Hey readers! It's been quite busy around here which is just awesome! We have quite a few pictures from the past couple weeks, and we are still trying to get a few more of our recent wedding cake pictures, so bear with us!

Seriously, this teddy bear ended up at the top all on its own! Too cute though for a 1-year-old's birthday party!



A silver anniversary party.


Holy Strawberries Batman! Yum, we had some delicious, and gigantic, strawberries to add to cakes layers this past weekend. Delicious!

A cute cake for a bridal shower.

Another 1-year-olds birthday, this time with a farm theme. I love making these little guys! The chickens are definitely my favorite! :)

This is a wedding cake/cupcakes from a few weeks ago. We dyed and crushed up rock candy to resemble crystals on top of the cupcakes... but my favorite part of these??

The cupcake wrappers. How AWESOME are these things! And so many kinds are available! It will up the cost per cupcake, but what a statement compared to a simple wrapper. We definitely need a few weeks notice to order these, but I love them!

A beach themed cake.

A funky fun gerber daisy cake for a 21st birthday!

A dessert buffet compared to a tradtional wedding cake. The fresh fruit is delicious!

Just a simply fun anniversary cake! Oh, and covered in chocolate ganache... completely sinful!

Funky, funky, funky.

Probably my favorite cake/photo over the past weeks. The natural lighting is awesome and the flowers on the cake just pull the whole thing together. I love it!

A special birthday party cake!

ohhh cornelli lace!

Everyone have a great week! - Sara :)

More enjoyment

Holy cow... we really cannot believe we are already more half way through June. Honestly. Its nuts and going by so quickly!

I love good lighting, and funky cakes. This cake was wrapped with think black ribbon and a deep turquoise ribbon. The result is a simple but fun look!

There is absolutely nothing like fresh fruit in the beginning of summer! The sweet, tart and all around delicious berries. YUM!

I love love love this one! The cake was covered with fondant in a pleated look and finished with soft white ribbons and handmade calla lillies. Now if only our beautiful, new cake stand wouldn't reflect such bright light onto our cakes...

This cake definitely looks a bit art deco-ish to me, and I love it. Its definitely a more traditional cake and is really stunning.

Congratulations to Riley who celebrated her graduation this past weekend! She is a beach, sand and sun lover, and requested that a fondant figure of herself sit atop her cake. And what do you need at the beach? Sun glasses. Perfect.

A simply yet elegantly decorated cake wrapped with a fondant ribbon and tuxedo style bows. The fresh green colors are absolutely so pretty this time of year.

And happy birthday to Zebb who turned five this past week. His two requests were for sprinkles and cars, so enjoy them both!

Its an early morning (posting before 7am?!) and still a bit chilly. We are getting ready for another weekend of fun cakes ahead, and hopefully warmer weather! And we are still working on getting a few pictures from some brides and others, so check back for those a bit later this week.

And a thank you to Dusty Brown Photography for dropping off a print of the cake from Monique and Kevin's wedding a few weeks ago, it looks stunning in our shop!

Have a good week everyone! Sara :)
