Deep into Cake!

I have cakes to show you! and up date the schedule too!

I almost forgot,
I have some good news and some not so good news.  Which should I let you know first? The good or the not so good?  Oh, I'll ask the kids in my bedroom, one second...They both responded, "the not so good news!"  So, here goes.  The not so good news is, I have a bulging disc in my neck (between C5 and C6), it is affecting my neck, left shoulder, and arm.  No worries, we are hitting it head on with Chiropractic care, Massage therapy, and posture pump.  It just takes a while to fix that way.  I don't have the time or the desire to have surgery, so I press on.  Just please keep me in your prayers. :)


Now the good news. It makes me so happy to announce I am a full time mom and a full time baker/cake decorator!  Yes, it's true!  (I wear many hats!) I am not teaching as I had planned.  My husband didn't want me teaching, in case the "right" job opportunity came along for him.  So, I get to devote my time to your orders and my family.  I'm not a supporter of Micky D's, but "I'm lovin' It!  

I do wish I had help so I could take on more orders.  It is very difficult for me because I'm having to turn some wonderful people away.  So, I urge you to check 6-8 weeks in advance!  


The schedule for the next few months is...
September - Booked
October - (only two spaces left!)  7th and 14th
November - available dates are 18-23
December - available dates are 1-18

Please! Please!! Please!!! Call and schedule if you need a date!!!! I'm not sure if I'm being very clear.  I know I already have 2 dates for February taken.  It's getting crazy around here!  Don't worry, I really enjoy the challenges you all send my way.  Keep them coming! 



Finally, pictures!  I have cakes all the way back to July!  What's up with that?  I'm not lazy, I'm busy!!!! Whoooo Hooooo!

Dum Dum Da Dum (Tune of Here Comes the Bride)

I saw the bride!  She was beautiful and definitely NOT fat and wide!  Jennifer and Josh were married this weekend at the Chesapeake  Boat House.  Everything was amazing, I hope the cake was up to standards.  Black, hot pink, and white were her colors.  

You are welcome to leave comments and let me know what you think of the cake (any cake for that matter). 

The cake was duplicated from Kicca Cakes.  The bride found the cake by googling: Contemporary Wedding Cakes.  I thought it was a beautiful design and I tried to make it look as close as possible. 



Thank you for looking and I'll be posting again when more cakes are finished.

Dr. Seuss Cake!

One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish . . .
Oh! and do you know who speaks for the trees?
Did you ever read about Sam?  Sam I am? He does not like Green Eggs and Ham!
What about double trouble with flaming blue hair?
Seriously!  I thought curiosity killed the cat.  Apparently not, it's just in the middle of everything!  We know him as the CAT, The Cat in The Hat!


If you know these things, maybe you are a fan of the wonderful world of Dr. Seuss!


"Dr. Seuss" was a wonderful children's story book writer.  I could only imagine what kind of cake decorator he would have been.  Since he wasn't, many bakers are (Me included!)  This cake was originally designed by a stay at home mom, Kate.  Her cake was the inspiration for my creation.  I made it as close as possible to her design, but added a couple of my own ideas.  I hope you enjoy the cake, smash cake and cake pops!  I certainly enjoyed creating them.

New Photo's Coming Tomorrow!

Thank you to everyone who has placed an order.  This weekends cakes are ready for posting.  However,  It's really  late/early and I've had a very long day.  I want to let those who are diligently checking for this weekends cakes to know to check after lunch tomorrow.  I promise I will get them on the blog.  If you are truly "dying" and must see them right away, they can be seen on face book (Cake Snobs group).


Have a great rest of the morning.  It's time to get some sleep.  Sweet Dreams!

It took me all day!

Whew! Finally!  I have spent all day working on the blog.  I have rearranged the galleries and added more pictures that I know were missing.  I will continue to add photos until I get them all in there.  I hope you are having a great week and I am looking forward to Memorial Day.  I will be making mini cheese cakes for our church this Sunday.  I'm even getting the "grill bug."  I am really in the mood to make a 3D grill cake (again, it's been years!).  Who knows, I may even take pictures of the progress as I go along.  I know it will be fun.  Have a great night! Hope to hear from you soon!
