Blog posts of '2011' 'November'

I'm getting more and more requests for cupcakes and custom birthday cakes and a fun one came my way!  One family with food allergies wanted a smash cake (individual sized mini cake made for hands only and awesome frosting photo op.s).  They had a robot birthday party and emailed us a photo of the theme.  They wanted a simple, clean look: the robot and the initial "C" on it.  I thought I'd let you in on the process!

Here's the image we got for the peanut, tree nut, dairy and egg free birthday cake.

And here's what we made: a triple layer organic vanilla bean cake with whipped vanilla frosting.  I can't wait for lick-able Wonka vision, scratch 'n taste.

Bug Muffins!

Pumpkin turned 6 years old this week and I decided to do something different to keep our day full of fun surprises.  Pumpkin's fascination with bugs inspired me to try something new, and I wasn't going to make chocolate covered ants...instead we had these organic banana chocolate chip muffin bugs.  Now they're her favorite food she wants to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Dino Cupcakes!

Pumpkin also loves dinosaurs and wanted chocolate as well as vanilla cake with chocolate and vanilla frosting mixed and matched together.  The fun dino candles inspired me to find fun, bright frosting colors for her birthday cupcakes that night.
