No, seriously, I do. I LOVE cake, you really have no idea how much....

Welcome to my new blog. I should let you know that my passion for cake began in the winter of 2006 after the birth of my second son. I found a cake that I love and then ate it every day....EVERY day...I kid you not! From there I began looking at cakes in whole new way and found that I really appreciate a good cake. I have recently started a cake decorating course and hope one day to be the maker of my own delicious cakes; to make them not only for myself but for others to enjoy too (yes! I have finally decided to share!!). Follow me in my journey from cake connoisseur to cake decorator!! Enjoy...I know I will!!

Random Baking

Last Christmas Ava decided that the cake for Christmas should be a snowgirl. 
 I sometimes have left over icing and just need to use it up. This calls for horrendously over-iced cupcakes!!


Oliver is ate!

Okay, so Oliver turned 8 but his cake got ate! Who doesn't love a good Sponge Bob cake?? I love Sponge Bob and this cake was fun to make..I was so nervous he was not going to look like he should but he turned out just fine! And yummy!

Ava's fifth birthday party was at the movies and the group of kids watched Rio 2. We love the Rio movies and Ava loves the birds, especially Jewel. Ava requested that her "Jewel" inspired cake be pink (of course!) and how could I say no??
Oliver's seventh birthday party was at the movies and they watched Cloudy with A Chance of Meatballs 2. So I made a cake with large meatballs (and some spaghetti! ) on a field of grass. The kids loved it!


Sadly I was not able to make a cake for Ava's fourth birthday party :( I made the unfortunate error of walking past the cake section of Walmart with her in tow and she LOVED a cake she saw there. It turned out okay though because I had so many other things I needed to make for her circus theme birthday party. My most favorite goodie I made was chocolate dipped Licorice. YUMMY!!
Another excuse to eat cake in my house is the bringing in of a new year!! I love making little flowers.

Christmas Cake! But not actual Christmas Cake because frankly, that's gross. I believe I made this fella Christmas 2011.
