A good friend of mine asked me if I would make a baby shower cake for her soon to be 1st grandson. This woman is just such a sweet lady - last week my oven in my bakery blew up, literally, it blew up and I was in desparate need to get a new one and very very fast but seeing as I have only been in business for maybe 7 months now - money is so so so so tight. So I was going to have to get like a credit card cash advance (with like 20% interest) because I found a great oven, used, and they would only take cash. Anywhoo, I called her thursday to confirm some things about the cake and we started talking about the oven and she was like "Okay, so come by the house and pick up a check" and I was like "NO, that is just way too much money" and i hate to borrow more than anything in life. Anyway, after all was said and done I did borrow the money (cried the whole way to her house) and I do feel so blessed that I have so many people in my life who believe in me and are willing to make an investment in. So to the point now, I just really wanted to make something extra special for her (and I don't want to charge her for this) to say thank you. So what do ya'll think, I also have made her a diaper cake to give as a gift and the topper on the cake looks like the stuffed animal that I have put on the diaper cake. All comments welcome - sorry so long 
That is just a beautiful cake...she will LOVE it! What a sweet lady to be there for you in your time of need=) It is people like that that makes this world a wonderful place to be! God bless her, Jen
You are one blessed little person and I hope you continue to be blessed. I love the cakes and think the lady will be just delighted. I'm sure that the money you don't receive from her for the cakes (instead in a loan or invetment to you) will come back to you in the form of referrals at the shower from other people. The cakes are just beautiful - you do such great decorating. 
thanks everyone - I am happy with how the cake turned out, I just really wanted to try and make it special for her, she is so excited about 1st grandbaby. thanks for responding
Beautiful.... im assuming that they are going to have lots of cake left over??? I think it is a lovely cake, you really went above and beyond!!
they are expecting about 30ish guests so I don't think that they will have gobs of cake left but have plenty for generous servings haha
I thing it's really cute! Nice work on the basket weve.
Beautiful! The whole story is beautiful ... what an overwhelming act of kindness she did! I also would have cried all the way there and back. You also must be an incredible person, it's true when they say "what comes around, goes around." Someone upstairs saw that and sent your friend, you either have already done something special for someone - or will in the future.
Either way I am soooo happy that things worked out for you, and rest assured that is a beautiful cake arrangement! It must look incredible next to the diaper cake. I can't think of any better thank you gift for her - your talent!!
anit it great how He always supply our needs throught great people enjoy baking in your blesed oven!
