Pink Poodle in Paris

Betcha never seen this before, huh? Me either. This was requested by Miss Isabel, who turns 6 this week. I work with her mom and I've done her cake for 3 years now. It was oh-so-pink (the pictures don't really do it justice), inside and out! And she loved it - that's the important thing! :)

Cake Pops for Monika

Made 3 dozen of these strawberry cake pops today for my friend Monika's birthday.

Just in case you wanted to know what the inside of a cake pop looks like! :)

My last August job later next week is a "Pink Poodle in Paris" cake for a repeat customer who is turning 6! Stay tuned for pictures...I don't even know what design I'm going to end up with!

My littlest taste tester

This is little Miss Carrigan, Zac's little sister (you know, the Star Wars cupcakes kid!). She walked right into our kitchen and looked at her mommy and said, "Cookie?" She knows our house well! I didn't have any cookies, but I did have some extra mini cupcakes, which she gladly accepted. How cute is she?!

My favorite Cape May treat

We go to Cape May, NJ every summer for a week with the Fleming family & just made the annual trek the last week of July. My hands-down favorite treat is Kohr Bros. frozen custard with LOTS of rainbow jimmies. It's best when they just dip the cup into the giant container of jimmies and scoop up a bunch of extras. The fave flavor? Orange/Vanilla Swirl. Heaven.

Star Wars Cupcakes

My local "nephew" Zac turned 9 yesterday. Of course, he requested Star Wars cupcakes again. :) He loooooves Star Wars. Usually we've had a hard time finding products, there just aren't a lot of licensed Star Wars cake decorating products out there. Enter Williams-Sonoma this year, who apparently have a new deal with Lucas and have all kinds of Star Wars stuff...including these cupcake stencils! First time using stencils in general, I think they turned out pretty well.

Banana Pudding

I did not make this lovely display of homemade banana pudding. It comes from our favorite little "meat & three" here in Nashville, Vittles - and I just had to share a picture. Delicious.

Brownies & cupcakes for a friend's play

Some college friends have started a theater production group and they perform the plays at our alma mater, Lipscomb University. They sell treats at intermission and asked for baked goods donations. I made these mini orange cupcakes and a bunch of brownies for last weekend's performance!

First birthday cupcakes

My co-worker Laurel ordered these cupcakes for her niece who was turning one!

Bachelorette Party

My co-worker Tammy was hosting a bachelorette party and ordered some mini red velvet cupcakes and cake balls!
