A VERY special thank you goes out to my mom, grandmother, Aunt Sherrie, cousin Paige, friend Marilyn and Diane for helping me with this project. It took three straight days and HOURS of prep but we did it! I really can't thank these fabulous ladies enough- I love you all!!

Bridal Shower Cupcakes
These were the favors ordered for a Bridal Shower. The theme was pink and orange gerber daisies- my favorite flower! Each cupcake was individually boxed with a "Thank You" label. The graphic on the box matched the invitation.

This was a cake I made for my sister's 21st Birthday. It would probably feed around 50 people. This cake had a layer of chocolate, gold and strawberry cake and is covered in fondant. The only things not edible are the pictures.

New Site!
Hi Everyone!
I finally decided to stop using the facebook link for the pictures of my cakes. What started off as a small hobby has become bigger by the week. I'm loving all the ideas people are asking me to come up with!
I hope you enjoy my site!
