Cake of the Month ~ Jan 10

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

I don’t know about you, but I am ready for it to warm up and for spring to arrive.  This cake from Brendenbeck’s Bakery really cheered me up with its pretty, vibrant colors and basket weave design.

I really love the lace detail in this cake from Artisan Cake Company.  The pale green color with the flowers is really pretty too!

Cake Trend

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

This is a new twist on decorating cakes with fresh flowers.  The bloom is placed on the cake and the stems are painted or piped on the side.  The first two cakes are from Just Fabulous Pastries, and the third is from For Goodness Cakes

If your groom is a die hard sports fan, it’s always fun to tie that into the wedding.  Here are a few ideas featuring my favorite team.  Go Buffs!

A garter he will love.  Get yours at Fun Wedding Things.

Cuff links for his tux.  Find them at Fan’s Edge.

Cake of the Month ~ Aug ‘09

Saturday, August 1st, 2009

The cake I want to feature this month is from Jacques Fine European Pastries.   I love the purple flowers and the ribbon, and it shows that with some creativity, you can make a less expensive, simple frosted layer cake look exquisite.

Thought I would share a couple of pictures from a baby shower I hosted for a friend of mine today.  My friend Cody is expecting a boy in August.  Can’t wait to meet the little guy!

Cute Cake

Sunday, June 7th, 2009

I just wanted to share a picture of a wedding cake from a a wedding I went to last night.   The bride came up with the design.  Her colors were pink and blue, and Little London made the cake and matching cupcakes.  I thought it was really cute and unique.
