Just finished a Christmas doll cake, and have the weekend free (from cakes anyway). Have 3 cakes next week, and made my very first batch of marshmallow fondant that turned out fantastic.......can't wait to get it on a cake!!
So I've been puttering around on the simple cake ALL afternoon. Right now I'm fighting the groom's cake. I've made this cake before - an open book. Should be easy but the bc is not cooperating. I am smoothing it into submission with boiling water. Will get bake to the bride's cake in a bit.
drawing up plans for my very first bridal shower cake. It will be a bridal wedding dress cake. I am trying to figure out structure and flavors. I am very excited!
Normita, I'm tired of looking at these cakes. I should have been done hours ago.
This morning I set up a table and a neighborhood gift show. Cookies and candies. It brings in a little holiday $.
Kimber, anyone who is awake on Friday Night is eligible to join FNCC.
Boy it's been a while since I've been on. I'm actually taking December off and focusing on things I want to do. I have a number of cookie ideas I've been wanting to work on and various other chocolate techniques. For the moment I'm sick of cakes! 
But that will all change in January when I go back to teaching and such. But in the meantime, it's "let's have some fun without stress" time! 
Oh yeah, the blog is going well too. I changed servers and I'm having a lot of fun. I've also been invited to be a guest sugar artist for another blogger and we're working together on some cool stuff (molded cookies!) It's a nice break from the norm.
I delivered 2 dozen red velvet cupcakes to some very important people today I am just starting to come down from it-I stressed over it for a couple of days but they all enjoyed it. All is well now 
I planned to mix up 4 batches of cookies to freeze in preparation for the holidays but I am off to bed. Happy baking everyone!!
HI!!
I am making a boatload of forget me not flowers.... I have a castle cake for my friend. It's the baby's 1st birthday.... and I am making a lil smash cake too.

I had a zebra b-day cake picked up earlier today and finished an order of 2 dozen cake balls. I also made 4 dozen more cake balls for my DH's co-workers who helped move the 3 door fridge into the new shop on Monday. I don't have any wedding cakes for this weekend but I am opening my shop on Monday. I have been working out of my house for the past 2 years and am super excited to move into my new space. I have my house back. I will have cupcakes, cake truffles, and chocolate covered oreos daily and then will do custom oder cakes and wedding cakes. I had a bunch of people stop by this week while I was organizing asking if I was open yet. Wish me luck.
Soo, wonderbuns, you using the Spinningleaf molds?
Blu, I use a whipped bc all the time.
Nope, we're using the House on the Hill and some of the old Brown Bag Cookie Art molds. Now I'm playing with some of the terra cotta cookie molds -- (can you say PITA??)
I am behind on a sweet 16 cake due tomorrow. Had to rebake one of the bottom layers and am stringing beads for the garland while the cake is in the oven. It is going to be a long night...
Hi I have never posted on here but always looking. I have alot coming up in the next few weeks. I am new to all of this an LOVE it!! I am making a hazelnut cake with espresso cream filling for Monday, never made a hazelnut cake before. Have a Barbi cake and cupcakes for next weekend and a wedding cake, the bride asked if I can put snowflakes on teh cake at the last minute. I had no idea how hard it would be to find small snowflake cutters in my area!! Ordering some online for future project but will not be here in time! Everyone have a great weekend!
Hi Everyone! Making a baby shower cake for tomorrow. Baby bedding is sailboats - client wanted the cake designed as if a child drew a picture of a sailboat. It's turning out very cute. Just have to finish the borders tomorrow and deliver. Hope everyone has a great night!
I just finished baking a last minute cake order. I hope that my martini glasses dry by 5 tomorow.
Hey guys!
Its been awhile since I have been here! Finished delivering a last minute bday cake a couple of hours ago. Didn't know that the honoree happened to be a celebrity, but we got kudos all the same. My partner and I are exhausted! Calling it a night! Have a great weekend all!
I'm getting ready for my nieces quinceanera on Dec. 11 and then my daughter's wedding cake on Dec. 17. Started doing this about 2 years ago to get ready for my nieces quinceanera, not knowing that my daughter would decide the get married at the same time....LOL But I'm really excited.
Working on a belly cake and the damn MMF is being a pain the you know what!!!
Making gumpaste animals (just the heads, cuz they'll be peaking through foliage) for a jungle-themed baby shower cake. I'm waaaayyy behind. Shoulda started these Wednesday, but was busy with cookies! Lion, zebra and elephant are done. Still have tiger, giraffe, monkey and maybe a hippo left to do.
